BOOK REVIEW: THE KRISHNA KEY BY ASHWIN SANGHI
Genre: Mythological fiction
The author of "The Rozabal Lines" and "Chanakya's Chant", 'Ashwin Sanghi’ is back and
this time he raises his bar even higher. Mythology, Anthropology, Drama, Suspense, Enigma and even sparing a space for Romance weaving all this together,
who could have perhaps done it better than this Indian version of “Dan
Brown”.
A historical/legendary
truth combined with a modern era fictitious plot is what this novel engulfs
within. Blazing fast, change of action from chapter to chapter, this book has two parallel storylines which kicks off
really well, one is about Krishna, a mythological being who lived around 5000
years back, the second story revolves around a man in present who
is convinced that he is the tenth Avatar of Vishnu.

Befikre: Unorthodoxy is the new elixir of life
The Ranveer Singh-Vani Kapoor starrer was the much hyped release of the month. With this calender year nearing its end, this film was believed to offer a new lease of life to filmmaking here in India. Expectations were running high as this was Aditya Chopra’s return to a directorial venture 8 years later after his cult worthy DDLJ and Mohabattein. Does the movie live upto the expectations or just turns out to be a lip-locking spree…

October 30: I know the pain of this day
I don’t know what to say. As the day approaches near, I still see flashes of that fateful day before my eyes. Oct 30. Year 2008. It was Bhaidooj, the Hindu festival somewhere similar to Raksha Bandhan where a sister prays for the long and prosperous life of her brother. Little did I know that my prayers would remain UNHEARD, UNFULFILLED….
