Movie that made me question my future

      Hey! Today I'm gonna be sharing my views on a movie that I watched last night. It's titled "12th Fail" which is based on a 2019 book of the same name, depicting the early life and struggles of IPS officer Manoj Kumar Sharma. 
      The heart of the story lies in Manoj Kumar Sharma's journey of self-discovery and moral awakening. Initially, he is immersed in cheating, driven by the environment of his village. However, this was disrupted by the arrival of DSP Dushyant Singh, bringing Manoj a chance to reevaluate his values and aspirations. Through police officer's integrity and courage, Manoj finds a new role model. Also his father's struggle in the high court against corruption, for which he had left home, helps him understand the need for change in the country. He begins to aspire towards a path of honesty, ultimately leading him to pursue a career in law enforcement despite facing unexpected challenges. 

      This movie not only explores the idea of personal growth, resilience, and the transformative power of positive influences on one's life, but also highlights the competitiveness of the world is and challenge of cracking one of the world's toughest exams like UPSC.
     I understood one thing from this movie, one cannot be an IAS/ IPS just because he/ she want to or the family expects them to be one. One needs to be in the people's shoe to actually understand the value, respect and power the post holds. When the movie ended, I had one question running and ruining my mind... "Am I ready to face this competitive world?" It still keeps ringing in my mind because even though I'm gonna complete my first year in the college, I still have no idea what I am gonna do after completing my bachelor's. This now urges me to plan my future before someone else does. Now my mind is a mess... All thanks to the one who asked me to watch the movie with her...

A line between persuasion and deception: Ads

  T he inaugural blog I write focuses on the discussion we had in one of my classes about advertisements, which spans from advertorial to television ads to e-marketing. This discussion has exposed me to the darker side of the business world. One of my classmates,Kavin, expressed the opinion that the contemporary advertisements lack in providing the accurate information regarding the quality and contents of the products and it leads people astray by promoting a certain trend. Vasanth, another classmate, mentioned that advertisements particularly in the comestics and fashion industry  targets women, shielding them from the reality of life's problems and situations.  Ilfa and Shauna talked about ads that  frequently promote unrealistic beauty standards particularly among young people, the face symmetry trend that still continues for the past two years. This pushes people to care about their personal beauty rather than facing the serious situations. This brings to mind a...

Her Obsession

Image
 My sister has developed an almost  obsessive love for books over the past few years, a passion that my mom and I find both baffling and exasperating. This obsession isn't just a casual interest or a hobby; it has become an all-consuming affair. Her room, once a modest space, has now transformed into a miniature library, bursting at the seams with novels, memoirs, and classic literature. Today, she came home with another haul, proudly displaying her new acquisitions: "Icebreaker," "Twisted Series," "Crime and Punishment" and several more, each book brandished with the kind of enthusiasm most people reserve for prized possessions. This love for books didn't appear overnight. Initially, it was charming to see her immersed in a novel, and it was even a bit endearing when she began quoting lines from her favorite characters. But as the years have passed, her spending on books has escalated dramatically. Any savings she manages to accumulate quickly dis...
