Tale of Tales / Il Racconto Dei Racconti – Once Upon A Time In Italy
We all know the tales of the Brother's Grimm and Hans Christian Andersen, but these fairy tales from Giambattista Basile has evaded many even though his stories are thought to be the oldest versions of many fairy tales proceeding.

Veere Di Wedding – Sex and the City Indian Style
A movie that celebrates women and lets them be what they are, human with flaws and shows the flaws of society as well with a comedic edge, but not shy about the emotions that linger beneath. This movie really was a riot, over the top, but in a good way and let me just say … Continue reading Veere Di Wedding – Sex and the City Indian Style

Ever want to live in a romantic comedy? I expected some raised their hands or nodded in agreement with that. I mean Pretty Woman (1990), 13 Going On 30 (2004) and The Wedding Singer (1998) are pretty much wish fulfilment in that category. Heck, any romantic comedy from the 90s to early 2000s in a … Continue reading Netflixing: Isn’t It Romantic
Demi-Gods – Mortal Lives, Immortal Attraction

It was a whim buy and I am glad I did … Continue reading Demi-Gods – Mortal Lives, Immortal Attraction

Periods or menstruation are a fact in every girl's and woman's life. Pads are still categorised as a luxury item which makes them expensive, but having them is not a luxury. Especially in the poorer corners of the world where the whole subject is taboo and its thought of as dirty or unclean, which technically … Continue reading Netflixing: Period. End of Sentence

We all have our favourite animated movie that isn't Disney.
