#CelebratingSuper - A super duper life as well as a super duper status

noreply@blogger.com (Harleen K Vohra) — Sun, 29 Oct 2017 10:57:00 +0000

I love Delhi as it’s my birthplace. I am born & brought up in this city only. It’s so beautiful that in my opinion, none of the Indian cities can match with it. It is also called mini India, as someone from almost every part of India, lives here. As a result, food and culture of the entire country can be seen & found, in one or other part of this mega city. The huge rush is visible at almost every eatery, be it the South Indian, Punjabi, Italian or Chinese. I just read in a newspaper that there is a Persian street also, though I have not yet seen it.

It has a huge lot of traditional values along with the most modern community. On the one side, you can find the Burkha clad ladies moving on the roads, while on the other side you can find the modern generation dancing at the pubs. On the one side you can locate the older Tanga moving in the congested lanes, while on the other side you can find the most modern Ola, Uber as well the Delhi Metro, connecting the entire city. We have the traditional Sadar Bazar as well the most modern Malls, Khan market, Central Market, South Extension, Lal Quarter, as well as the world famous Connaught Place.

The NCR areas have become the hub of IT sector as well as industrialization. Entering Gurugram gives the impression that you have reached to a new world with huge buildings with more modern designs. Almost every big overseas company has its office in this part of the NCR. The areas around Sonipat also have so many foreign companies with big industrial units in operation. Noida & Greater Noida have also developed significantly. There is no doubt that Delhi has emerged as a smart city and the residents here have got a super life as well as the super status. The city is so well connected digitally, that you can move the entire city without any cash and can pay using your mobile, even without your Debit or Credit card.

Truly, Vodafone has connected the entire Delhi and the NCR region in such a way, that it has become the most sought-after company being imbibed with the hallmark of trust and worthiness, it is maintaining its position in the most judgmental breeds of humanity that dwells in Delhi through its awesome endorsement and marketing skills by throwing campaigns, giving away lots and lots of discounts to its customers in the mainstream, thus putting a million dollars pacifying smiles on the face of daily users of Vodafone.

Truly, it has crossed the landmark of over 1.2 crore connections in Delhi and NCR region, which is definitely a great achievement. Its free WI-FI zones, Airy-purifying bus shelters as well as the dedication to support the startups are worth praising. Vodafone has also contributed to the development of the city by providing the 4G connectivity and that is also one of the reasons, that residents here are feeling a super status with a super life.

In spite of the great efforts of the concerned authorities, this mega city is still suffering from various critical issues, such as the rising levels of the Air Quality Index, i.e. Air pollution as well certain civic issues, that include the cleaning of the river Yamuna, i.e. the lifeline of Delhi. If our authorities could show the dedication as shown by Vodafone in the city, there is no doubt that soon the residents of Delhi and NCR will get a Super Duper status as well as a super duper life.

Please get yourself connected to the Vodafone and if you require any more details, please log on to https://www.vodafone.in/home-delhi as we all are #CelebratingSuper in this mega smart city in a much better environment.

Masking is the new swag ?

noreply@blogger.com (Harleen K Vohra) — Fri, 22 Sep 2017 12:50:00 +0000

"Is Masking the new swag?" (Satire on the contemporary world). Wait, wait, wait? What? Masking???? How can it be a swag? uh! (Pun intended).

Yes, you read it correctly, Masking!
The word Masking compels me to cook stories in my mind and it pans out reminding me about my childhood fantasies which resurrects at the moment, the mask mans and super heroes from superman to satan, arrives at the airport of my mind. Ha-ha Yes! And maybe yours too.

But do they really exist among the super advanced urbanities of the 21st century, which is the era of fashion and trend, but yes, these days putting on a 'mask' is a real trend. You must be wondering why?

"Concrete cum ferocious reality".

Dwelling in such a polluted city and in order to protect ourselves from the outdoor as well as indoor pollutants, that include not only the filthy smokes emitting from industries and vehicles, but also the foul smells of paints, varnishes, furniture, carpets, walls, molds, kitchen & a lot more indoors, which are not just deteriorating our health but in addition to it, they are also the major factors responsible for the worsening condition of the depleting ozone layer.

Just go down the streets of the city, and you will meet all the superheroes and super heroines in their perfectly attired masks trying to protect themselves from nature's rage but does the shit ends here?? No! It doesn't. You have to wear this mask even indoors.

It is an ironical fact that despite being acquainted with the ferocious reality we have not taken the concrete steps. Preventing ourselves from the outdoor exhaust we tend to believe that we are safe, we have protected ourselves from decay, but the concreteness of reality will send shivers down your spine as we are not safe even inside our home.

The fact is that the proportion of exhaust is much more in our own houses than it is outside and nevertheless we call it the best place to live in. Isn't it ironical? Yes, it is, Aghast! It is next to impossible to rectify our surroundings as a whole, but we can manage to make a difference at our individual level.

"Charity begins at home".

Before taking the initiative to redress the country we should give it a go with some initial efforts towards our personal space, none other than our home. Earlier the phrase ' a family together is the best place to call home ' should now be changed to a family together in a safe subtle atmosphere is best suited to call home.

"Unveiling Royale Atmos - Adieu masking ".

In order to bring change in the society, introducing to you the most trendy, pious, elite and a product of worth, The One and only ROYALE ATMOS - a Paint that helps purify the air and yeah!!

HomeComing of Terror - House of cards Review - First Episode Season 5

noreply@blogger.com (Harleen K Vohra) — Sat, 03 Jun 2017 11:28:00 +0000

“Frank Underwood is coming to India with the television premiere of House Of Cards Season 5 on Saturday, 3rd June, 5 PM onwards, only on Zee Café!”

House of cards, paragon of American television series which is an adrenaline packed adventure, illuminating political fervour with a blend of pragmatism and witticism which is starkly conspicuous from the vantage grounds of the protagonist Frank underwood.

It is an awesome tale with a gripping plot imbibed with various adventures which will send shiver down your spine. It carries several digressive plots each filled with something applaudable.

Scene opens with a deliberate murder of a journalist, while Frank (Kevin Spacey) and Claire Underwood (Robin Wright), are seen trying transforming the murder for their own sake. The whole scenario commences with a direct telecast, where Claire is saying, “You have nothing to be Afraid of. We are here to protect you”. She continues, “There’s a lot of noise out there, a noisy press that’s choosing to dwell on the past instead of what’s happening right now,” But as soon as the camera zooms, it reveals that it was the recording of an election telecast.

The scene is then directed to the American Congress, where a senate wants a debate on the actions of the President and his declaration of war on terror. But the reply he gets from the Frank was, “ I am on my way to the funeral of an American patriot. A good man. A husband. A father who was beheaded on American soil. And this chamber chooses to debate me.”

Despite the fact that the creator of the series, Beau Willimon is no more connected with the series, the first episode of the, House of Cards, season 5, still looks as smart as earlier. It shows the President of the United States of America, as a strong and angry person, with no regard to the political values. The show almost matches with the working style of Donald Trump, the existing president of America.

Perpetual efforts of Frank to outsmart the growing popularity of his Republican rival Will Conway (Joel Kinnaman) is deciphered distinctly and manipulative actions by waging a war against the terrorist organizations, with the sole aim of creating fear in the commoners for the sake of retaining his own presidency.

He is shown as a true opportunist, with more concerned with his own reelection as the President. He capitalizes the issue of the insecurity of the people in the hands of the terrorists, just to regain his popularity as well to retain his seat.

Deliberate efforts of Frank underwood, persecuting commoners are only done to quench his own selfish pursuit of acquiring dictatorship leaving the viewers in stark indignation towards the principal character.

NEVERTHELESS, incredible amalgamation of frank’s wits and a fantabulous blend of pragmatic politics is attributed to make the subsequent series more inquisitive and Famous.

“Frank Underwood is coming to India with the television premiere of House Of Cards Season 5 on Saturday, 3rd June, 5 PM onwards, only on Zee Café!” You can view more details about the new series at https://www.facebook.com/ZeeCafe. #HOConZCafe

Ready to GO for my redi-Go from Datsun !

noreply@blogger.com (Harleen K Vohra) — Tue, 07 Jun 2016 11:00:00 +0000

I am a student and for going to my college I am looking for a new car for myself. My papa says that the price of a new car, now a days is very high as well the petrol is costing too much. He asked me to go by Metro. But it’s difficult to go daily by metro and therefore, I have to buy a car. A car that gives me a great mileage as well it must be available at the lowest price.

Just Heard about the Redi-Go from Datsun, that it’s being launched on the 7^th of June i.e. Today itself. Heard that it gives a mileage of over 25 Kmpl. Heard that it will be priced below Rs two & a half lakh. It really sounds great. Would like to have a trial of the car and if satisfied, will buy it at the first go.

Truly, redi-Go at a low price with a great mileage, even though with a manual transmission, is worth as the cost of Petrol is continuously rising. Even in the last month, price of Petrol was increased twice. It dents into my pocket as I am still a student with no personal income as I have to meet all of my expenses out of the pocket money I get.

The new entrant into the market is the Redi – Go from Datsun, Nissan. The price seems most competitive and attractive for the first time entrants ( like me ) into the four wheeler segment as it is suited to almost every budget.

The redi-Go is powered by a 799cc three-cylinder petrol motor that churns out 53bhp and a peak torque of 72Nm, mated to a five-speed manual gearbox. Both the cars will return a claimed fuel efficiency of 25.17kmpl. A mileage of 25.17 kmpl looks quite attractive as it’s pocket friendly for the entire middle class range of people, who want to shift from a two wheeler.

The new Datsun car will run on 13-inch wheels and will also come with an audio system that has radio, CD, MP3, USB and aux-in connectivity. These features again generate attraction amongst the new entrants as they can have all kinds of music, while on the redi-Go.

The redi-Go measures 3,429mm in length, 1,560mm in width and 1,541mm in height. With a tallboy stance, the redi-Go comes with a ground clearance of 185mm which is 5mm higher than the Renault Kwid. It’s tallboy stance also seems quite attractive as it gives a great feeling.

Another attraction of the redi-Go is it’s colours. The car will be sold in five colours — ruby red, white, silver, lime green, and grey. The redi-Go will be pitted against Maruti Alto 800, Hyundai Eon and Renault Kwid in

India

and will be produced at Renault-Nissan alliance plant at Oragadam, Chennai.

This car can attract the first time entrants into the car segment due to it’s Lowest price in the market, with it’s great mileage, with it’s tall boy stance, it’s beautiful colours as well it’s music system. With a unique design, best in class performance and fairly comfortable seats, the Datsun redi-Go surely is the strongest contender in this highly competitive budget hatchback segment I am very much sure that it will soon become the heart throb of millions and soon I will buy it for me.

Gold mornings with black charcoal #Colgate360GoldMornings

noreply@blogger.com (Harleen K Vohra) — Sun, 24 Jan 2016 20:49:00 +0000

Black charcoal in the toothbrush, sounded strange and surprising to me. I just could not understand that how a tooth brush can contain charcoal in it for a clean and brighter outcome. But the minute I viewed this Golden brush, it just changed my thinking in a minute.

The brush had black bristles in it and those bristles were infused with the charcoal. I just touched the black part with my fingers to feel them. I had in mind that those bristles will be hard enough to scratch my gums. But those charcoal infused bristles were softer in comparison to the regular toothbrush that I am using.

I thought of using that new brush in my mouth and surprisingly, the minute I used it, I got a strange feeling in my mouth. My teeth felt much cleaner now and even my entire mouth had a different but pleasant sensation in it. Since then I am regularly using it twice a day and I am really very happy as my Good mornings now are in fact the Gold mornings.

Importance of Rice as a Crop in Bali

noreply@blogger.com (Harleen K Vohra) — Wed, 20 Jan 2016 16:05:00 +0000

Rice is considered to be the most important crop for the Balinese and traditionally it has been viewed as a gift from the gods that needs to be honored as such. It is a key ingredient of the local cuisine. The value of this crop to the local population is demonstrated by the fact that the villages surrounding the rice fields will have shrines devoted to it. The cycle of rice planting, irrigation, maintaining, and harvesting sets the tone for much of the traditional island life. The Balinese have created their own system for rice cultivation, and it is one of the most effective ways of managing this crop in the world.

Dabur Honey - balanced & a nutrient diet

noreply@blogger.com (Harleen K Vohra) — Mon, 18 Jan 2016 10:03:00 +0000

Truly speaking the weight reduction is a gradual process by taking a healthy & balanced diet, but instead of going for a nutrient diet, many of us opt for the crash diet which is absolutely a bad idea. We have seen many fat persons becoming slim in a short span with hanging skin. They look bad and ugly. Moreover, the minute they stop taking such crash diet, they again start gaining weight.

These crash diets are very harmful for the human body. By consuming crash diets, we don’t actually lose the fat of our body, instead such crash diets make a severe impact on the body’s stored supply of carbohydrate glycogen. When we burn glycogen, we lose water as well, from our body as our body contains almost 70% water and this burning of water from our body shows as we have reduced our weight. It results in unnecessary irritation of mind, tiredness and lethargy as our body is not getting the nutrients that are required to produce energy.

It may also result in nutritional & calcium deficiencies that may lead to osteoporosis as well many other Heart, Liver and Kidney ailments. Moreover, while starving on a crash diet, our body lowers the metabolism to burn fewer calories and when we start eating again, it becomes difficult for our body to adjust and as a result we gain more weight that that too rapidly.

Therefore, instead of a crash diet, we must go for a balanced and nutrient diet so that we are never over weighted, and if there is any excessive fat in our body, it gets burned down gradually keeping us fit and healthy.

To stay fit and healthy, we can just replace sugar with a natural sugar i.e. Honey. Honey has all the nutrients that are required by our body, such as carbohydrates, minerals, amino acids, proteins and the required vitamins. By the intake of honey, we can get more energy without building much heat and as a result, it can be taken in winters as well in summers. Its moisturizing and nourishing properties give a glow to our skin. It’s highly digestible. It’s beneficial in cough & cold conditions. Moreover, it can be taken with warm water regularly for the weight management.

We must keep in mind that the honey we consume is free of any impurities such as pollen, wax and dust & therefore it must be properly filtered and processed. A local concern can never offer us a quality product and therefore, we must look for a branded product as they have all the technology for the efficient production.

Dabur honey is one such brand that can easily be relied upon. We can know much more about Dabur honey from the Honey Diet Link that connects us with http://www.daburhoney.com/.

If we want to be healthy and fit, we can just replace sugar with honey in our daily diet. It can be taken in tea, coffee, milk, juices, mock drinks, ice cream, kulfi faluda and so on. Instead of consuming jam or butter on our breakfast, we can use honey in our bread. It can save us from all the bad impacts of sugar and can keep us healthy & fit. It can also help us stay away from the worst impacts of the crash diets.

Catur Muka Statue (Four Faced Statue), Bali

noreply@blogger.com (Harleen K Vohra) — Mon, 18 Jan 2016 10:00:00 +0000

Catur Muka Statue is the depiction of God Brahma, the Almighty Creator. Located at the crossroad, this huge granite statue has four heads which each of them faces and guards the street of Surapati, Udayana, Veteran, and Gajah Mada.

God Brahma is depicted as a four faced deity based on the legend that once upon a time there was a beauty contest held in heaven. All Gods, including Brahma, fought for the most advantageous spot from where they can view the contest best. All the nymphs who joined the beauty contest were required to parade in a circle around the Gods to show their best heavenly beauty. The contestants were countless that the parade soon became a huge and crowded circle. In order to be able to enjoy the beauty of all contestants over and over again, with his supernatural power, he transformed himself and had three more heads.

It is also said that the four heads represent God’s power. The first head signifies the fact that God is infinitely big. The second head signifies that God is the King of the kings of this world and the next. The third head signifies the fact that God is tireless and never stops working.

Kertha Gosa Pavilion of Klungkung Palace, Bali

noreply@blogger.com (Harleen K Vohra) — Sat, 19 Dec 2015 10:41:00 +0000

The Klungkung Palace, officially Puri Agung Semarapura, is a historical building complex situated in Semarapura, the capital of the Klungkung Regency (kabupaten) on Bali, Indonesia. The palace (puri) was erected at the end of the 17th century, but largely destroyed during the Dutch colonial conquest in 1908. Today the basic remains of the palace are the court of justice, the Kertha Gosa Pavilion, and the main gate that bears the date Saka 1622 (AD 1700). Within the old palace compound is also a floating pavilion, the Bale Kembang. The descendants of the rajas that once ruled Klungkung today live in Puri Agung, a residence to the west of the old palace, which was built after 1929.
