Chanakya Neeti: With Complete Sutras by Chanakya
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Blurb -

Chanakya was known by names like Kautilya and Vishnugupta and played multiple roles of being a teacher, philosopher, economist, jurist and royal advisor. Arthashastra and Chanakya Neeti were the two important books written by him. Chanakya Neeti is a collection of aphorisms, said to be selected by Chanakya from the various Shastras. The topics discussed are morality, ethics, governance and several others. Chanakya is regarded as a great thinker and diplomat in India. Many Indian nationalists regard him as one of the earliest thinkers who dreamt of a united India, spanning the entire subcontinent.

My views -

Chanakya Neeti: With complete sutras is a scriptural narrative of sayings/slokas from one of the great philosopher of all time, Chanakya man behind Chandra Gupta Maurya first mauryan emperor. Chanakya played huge role in building this empire by teaching and assisting King chandra gupta from childhood. He is well known for his knowledges in various fields other than governering like philosophy, teaching, jurist and economist.

This novel was divided into six parts for understanding of readers each part describing various aspects of life and it's even relatable to today's happenings. All the aphorisms are described in a detailed manner with simple english and sutras were in sanskrit.

It was edited well to make the readers connect easily but some of them are out dated. I mean it can't suits for upto date. Some of them which shows the superiority of brahmins as higher caste, some shows the superiority of men over women.

Overall, it is a good book to read and some of his thoughts were still fresh which can make you feel wow and a pure form of inspiration.

The man you know... the journey you don't

Mahendra Singh Dhoni, one of the most known person in India.  A man who changes the dimensions of Indian cricket team. We all read and listen to his day to day activities somewhere daily, in it. What makes this biopic special? Why it is must watchable? Eventually all will see how he is only after becoming a celebrity but we doesn't know the other side of a coin. A goal keeper to wicket keeper, A ticket collector to biggest trophy winner. Being a celebrity we all loves but ever noticed difficulties in it? You know the man who hits last ball six in ICC Cricket World Cup 2011 but the efforts behind that, did you know? Did you ever imagine how he would be before playing for India & after playing for India. Just imagine how the life of man who is noticeable by media will be? The questions may many but answer was within this biopic only. Did you ever blamed Dhoni for team India loosing? If yes means you have biggest responsibility of watching his biopic.

BARS and BEATS by Venkat My rating: 5 of 5 stars Blurb - Weaving through the glamorous studios, the recording booths and the mixing consoles, this is the story of John-a violinist, and his very close talented technician friend Sundar, who works for the country’s best music composers.  The immensely talented artists like Rajashekar and Rahim are striving to give their best, but will they be able to hold on to their own spaces and face the challenges thrown by the hidden enemy?  With changing technology, the problems are also new-fangled.  The sweat, sleaze, stains, and the inside stories of hard work of the real audio recording world, passing through different periods, come to life through the characters who endeavor to attain success and fame.  The wretched ones are trying to take advantage of the weak, and an underlying real threat of piracy is looming large on the lives of the entire music industry folk.  Will the enemy be trapped ?
