The hype is less about #Shahrukh and more about Yashraj - A thread about #Pathaan

Yashraj is the biggest production house in the country and it has been delivering flops after flops.

Here is a list of last 5 YRF movies. Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar, Bunty Aur Babli 2, Jayeshbhai Jordaar, Samrat Prithviraj and Shamshera. Before that it was Zero, Fan, and Thugs of Hindostan.

CAT, Bihar and Punjab - The series that uncovers the reality of India’s “happiest”state. - A thread.

I am a Bihari, not the I-was-only-born-there-Bihari. I am a Pakka Bihari. I was born in Jahanabad, brought up in Patna and did my schooling from Patna. Most of my friends are from Bihar. Half of my family lives there and I visit Bihar at least 4 times a year.

My siblings, cousins and I did our schooling from Patna in the 90s, often dubbed as the Jungle Raj time. It definitely was. We knew about the extortion industry. We knew about the “rangadari” culture. We didn’t smoke or drink or did drugs, most Bihari kids of my age didn’t.

My Tweet thread response to this 2-bit opinion piece on CBC.

This article has been written by one Sarbmeet Singh and an Akshay Kulkarni, both of them Indian immigrants to Canada. But I won’t go for an ad-hominem attack, I would let facts do the talking.

The article suggests that Indian Students migrate to Canada because of 2 reasons:
1.Unstable Political Environment in India
2.Lack of Job opportunities
One Karan Singh has migrated to Canada because he fears for personal safety in Haryana.

That’s all that the article has to say, so Atha #AtulUvaach:
Indian students have been migrating overseas for education and employment since last many decades. Canada is a relatively new phenomena.

Inspirational Thread:

This is the story of a man who joined a corporation to edit the CEO’s statements for press and went on to become someone who would walk right next to the boss.

This is the story of grit, determination, well timed career switches, and showing your true worth to your current and previous organizations. If you are suffering at the lowest rungs of the corporate ladder. Read on.

So, he was hired to edit the Boss’ speech. He was a communication specialist that a talent scout had brought to the organization. The Boss was well known for unorthodox speeches and used to deliver too many of them.

To boycott or not to boycott is an individual call but let us try and understand the concept of Astras first, to make a more educated decision about Project Boycott Brahmastra.

खड्‌गं चक्र-गदेषु-चाप-परिघाञ्छूलं भुशुण्डीं शिर: शंखं:

Part of a Devi Stuti sang by Brahmaji for the first time. It means “Devi has in her 10 hands-Khadga, Chakra, Gada, Baan, Dhanush, Parigh, Shool, Bhushundi, a severed head and Shankha.”

Let us try and understand these weapons:

1. Khadga means sword. It’s a close range hand to hand combat weapon.
2. Chakra means spiked discus. It’s a long range weapon which is normally projected on to a target
3. Gada means mace: It’s again close range hand to hand combat weapon

#LalSinghChadha - have we won? - A thread.

Lal Singh Chadha is a lousy movie. And if its first day collections are any indication, it’s going to be a colossal disaster.

While Cinema experts will blame the quality of the movie to explain its doom, it’s clear as a day that boycott calls crashed Aamir’s plane.

But have we won? Can it be claimed as a civilisational victory? Or do we need to tank more movies to claim victory? The fact is, that victory is not even in sight. This one, if at all, was just a small skirmish.
