Announcement.

So, I don't know why, but my blogspot has been acting like a bitch. It discourages alot of my friends and fellow bloggers to read my work by disabling them to view the blog. Hence, i have not been active on my blog.
For the good part, I have started a blog on wordpress instead and i will be actively writing on that blog. Here is the link - https://riyasarda.wordpress.com.
Sorry for any inconvenience.  :)
Thankyou.

Dear Best friend !

Dear best friend,

When you signed up to be my best friend, you knowingly or unknowingly agreed up on all my terms and conditions :-

1)Treat me like a princess.

2)Make me your priority when I come home for a few days.

3)Listen to me whine, a lot, whenever I feel like whining. Even if it is 3 A.M

4)Sound excited when I narrate my “interesting” stories.

5)Listen to me rant about how much I spent on things that I didn't need in the first place and console me by telling me how it was all worth the price.

6)Motivate me to do my work on time.

7)Talk to me when I am low.

It doesn't matter if I change. You will still have to be my Best friend. Cause I am a leech, a parasite who found a host body in you. You better be there for me. Otherwise I will kill you. And if you can't live with these then, well learn to, cause I am not letting you off the hook that easily.  


Your favourite,
Riyahaha.

Super human from the streets.

You must be thinking of what the human from the streets has done to earn the tag of 'superhuman'. So let me take you back to April 13th, 2015, 4:55 p.m.

I was sitting on my Activa parked along the sidewalk and talking to my friend. We never realized that, on the sidewalk right in front of our vehicles was the house of this superhuman. It can't be called a house, it was just a blue sheet on 2 poles. As we were talking we saw a stray puppy ill with rabies. I adore dogs. And I freakin' LOVE puppies. So this puppy crossed my friend and I and went to the so called house of the superhuman. The superhuman started petting and feeding the puppy milk. Immediately my friend and I warned her about the ill effects of rabies and how it might contaminate her as well. She simply smiled for a while and said ' If I stop feeding him who will he turn to ? '. There was awkward silence for a minute, before she continued on ' so what if he is ill with a minorly contagious disease, he is a living being too. What is written in my destiny will happen. If God wants me to die like this, so be it. But I cannot deny this creature food and shelter. Praying to statues is not how you pay your devotion to god. But being human and helping others is devotion. Humanity is the best way to pay god your devotion. I don't have enough food to run my family, but still I feed this pup half a litre of milk everyday. My husband beats me for feeding him, but I still feed him milk. If we don't help others our race will perish. Our traces of living will perish. Our ecosystem, the mutual bonding we have with nature will all cease.'. And she went on and on telling us stories of her childhood of how she never looked at herself without pride.She asked me never to feel inferior and never to lose pride in myself. I had to interrupt her after 30 - 45 minutes because I had to rush back home. I fell in love with her when she said 'may god be with you and you get to marry the love of your life.'. I mean which 60 year old lady in India blesses random children like that.That was so cool. Oh and the best part, when I asked her if I could click a picture of her, she said “wait, how should a pose, like this? Or like that?”. She settled with a classic pose.

So that my friends is the superhuman. You might be thinking of how this justifies the superior tag of 'superhuman', well I am afraid you'll have to wait for the next part for that. :evilsmile: 3:) ! See you next week or maybe later :).

Music - Elixir (Take two).

Do you believe in magic? 

I do. When I say ‘I do’ I don’t mean the David Copperfield or Criss Angel sorts or for that matter, Son Pari (for those early 20’s Indian kids 😉). The right music is magic. It’s funny how minutes long swaddles of rhythm, words and instruments can carry even a 109 kilo couch potato away. Songs are like hyperlinks to those stale memories squashed down your mind. It’s crazy how every song has a story or link to an old memory. Or if not a past incident they surely permit us to believe in fantasies. Be it a toddler, a pet animal or an old being, music has the power to touch everyone’s heart and mess their brain! If a song can make you sad, it surely can make you happy as well. They can distress you and soothe you. Motivate and demotivate you. It’s enthralling to see how these simple swaddles can do so much to a complex being. 

 Tonight, for the billionth time I let a song get to me. I don’t know why I let this happen! I guess I can never overpower the magic of a beautiful song. This time ‘ Kodaline’ was responsible for the dejected heart. By the way, if you haven’t heard a ‘Kodaline’ piece STOP READING THIS AND YOUTUBE THEM. NOW! Or just click here – iamadvancinginthesegeekymidgets.

 As I was saying, I let Kodaline give me a heartache, which ultimately led me to this wretched page. And no they did not sponsor this :P. Music has had an important role in my life. Music is something I can rely on when I am feeling low or if I want someone to understand me. I mean there is a song for anything and everything. And sometime the lyrics of certain songs are just soo apt to your situation, it’s like the song was written for you. I love those moments, it somehow makes me feel important and understood. If I don’t stop now I think I’ll keep on jabbering about it.

Music is my life. It is my religion :)!

Also, do check out part one Music - Elixir ( Take one) , though it might be pathetic, as it was written ages ago.

Book Review - August.

I am so happy with this months wrap-up ! I have not read a lot of books, but a lot of pages. So let's get started. ( Almost 3000) :D!

1) Harry Potter And The Goblet of Fire - J. K Rowling.

                         And 

2) Harry Potter And The Order of Phoenix - J. K Rowling.

3) Shatter me ( Tahereh Mafi.) ⭐️⭐️⭐️

This is the first book of the Shatter me trilogy. And the first dystopian series I have read. The book is great, but I found it inclined towards romance more than action. Not the best start for the series. I like how the writing style of this book is different. People may either love it or find it annoying. I found it bearable, probably because I was listening to it on audiobook half the time :P.

4) Unravel me ( Tahereh Mafi) ⭐️⭐️⭐️  and a half.

Now now. This book was better than the first one and had more to the story than plane romance. I liked the twists and turns. But I hated how confused the narrator Juliette was under a lot of circumstances. 

5) Ignite me ( Tahereh Mafi) ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ 

I loved this far more than its prequels! I think it has a great ending. And I got used to the cheesiness by the third book. I would recommend this series to someone is looking for romance-action. But yeah kudos to Tahereh Mafi for introducing me to the dystopian world. 

P.S I just completed Divergent :) review next month, as it is already the first weekend of this month.

Letter of yesterday.

Dear future girlfriend of my ex-boyfriend,

He is a baby. He has a little issues when social, and he might not always show his feelings for you and might not tell you how  grateful he is to have you. He might ignore you as times and he might not make you feel like a princess. He might not give you surprises, and he might not act like the best boyfriend. But he is. And you are the most important thing for him. He thinks about you all the time and he loves you. He loves you with all his heart and he loves you like you are the most beautiful thing in the world. I know it and you can trust me with this. He just can’t express himself. So don’t you ever feel that he isn’t interested in you and that he takes you for granted. He doesn’t. He is just afraid. He is afraid of losing you. He has lost a lot of close ones when he was young and that has scarred him. He is really afraid of losing you. And I know it might be a little hard but if you love him with all that you have, try to understand him. Help him get out of that shell. Tell him it’s okay to become close with people. Please do so. I request you to think thrice before coming to conclusions. Now I am sorry I’ll have to stop here or I might go on and on. I am afraid I don’t have a lot of time left to help him. And I don’t want to make the scar deeper, but I’ll have to go. I have no choice. My time has come..

Book Review - July.

1) Scion of Ikshvaku (Amish Tripathi ) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Now this was one of my most anticipated book. I gave it a 4 because it had really less things happening. The book was setting a state for the next books to come, so I can’t complain. I anyhow can’t wait for the next book :). 

 

2) Where rainbows end (Cecelia Ahern) ⭐️⭐️⭐️ and a half.

This is the third Cecelia Ahern book I have read and I love how Cecelia has different writing style and variety. I gave it only 3.5 because even though I liked the book and found it relatable, I thought she dragged it. I didn’t like how she kept delaying the oh-so-obvious climax. Otherwise a thumps up for the book. 

P.S I just watched  the movie adaption of it - ‘love, Rosie’ and it’s good!

3) Where she went (Gayle Forman) ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️.

Now now, I absolutely  loooved the first part of this duology ‘If I stay’ which is narrated by Mia, who is on her death bed. But but but, the second part is narrated  by Adam her boyfriend  ex-boyfriend. And I loved this book as well, except maybe there is a lot of philosophical talking. But I loved it anyhow. And I loved how it ends.

4) When Mr.dog bites (Brian Conaghan) ⭐️ ⭐️   and a half.

I think these is the least stars I have given to any book this year. Why I didn’t like the book is because……well I didn’t like it. It is not slow to get in but in the middle it is VERY slow and boring. It has a kidding climax. The book is about an abnormal child who has Tourettes I think the author could  have thought of a good storyline. 

5) Wonder (R.J Palacio) ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ and a half.

This is a WONDERFUL book. I with all my heart love it. I read 2 books about young “abnormal” boys and unlike ‘When Mr.dog bites’ this one was very interesting. I loved how the story is narrated by different characters and each character has his/her own perspective of the situation. This book made me laugh and cry. I weeping with tears of joy in the end. I would definitely recommend this to everyone of every age. Love. Love. Love.

6) The Julian chapter (R.J Palacio) ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️  and a half.

This was an extra in my copy of The Wonder. It is a hundred pages long story from Julian’s (villen’s ) perspective. At first I didn’t read it because I didn’t like Julian. But once I started it, I couldn’t stop. I loved the story. That is all I have to say. If you have read/ are to read The Wonder make sure you read this too.

7) Go set a watchman (Harper Lee) ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️.

I am sure you have waited for this book just as much as me. I love To kill a mocking bird and I was expecting  a lot from this. And we all know that expectations lead to disappointment. I didn’t enjoy this book as much as its prequel. And yeah. I don’t know. 

Best friend vows.

Dear best friend,

On your birthday I vow that 

1) I shall duly be there for you when you are depressed because of your first heartbreak.

2) I accept my duty as the godmother of your future adopted kid(s).

3) I surely will attend the golf party you throw as the C.E.O of one of the leading companies.

4) I shall be the best maid of honour any girl could ever have i.e, if the probability of 0.000001% of you getting married happens.

5) I shall love you with all my heart even if you turn from being the “I see only happiness and everything is so good” to a hard core critic and pessimist like me.

6) I shall convince you to do stupid things which you would regret the next day but laugh about 40 years later.

7) I promise to let you have my very hot future boyfriend for a day.

 

Happy birthday girlie. :) 

Book Review - May and June.

What time of the year is it? It's time for another book review. 

Please don’t kill me after the follow up 🙈🙈

So here goes 

1) Eleanor and park  (Rainbow Rowell) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

After reading fan girl I decided to read this book because I loved rainbow Rowell so writing. I loved how Rainbow  Rowell did not maintain the picturesque image of the female lead. It is a different one story which leaves you thinking about the characters. I loved the ending! Recommended.

2) Let it snow ( Maureen Johnson, John Green and Lauren Myracle) – ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Let it snow has not failed to bring in a holiday mood while reading it. There are three short  romantic stories all of which are interconnected and I had a wonderful time reading it. I would definitely recommend this during Christmas.

3) Memoirs of a geisha (Arthur  Golden) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ and a half.

This is by far the one of the best book I have read this year. I highly recommend  this. Memoirs of a geisha has saved itself a place in my favourites list. And If you are reading this, stop doing whatever and get your hands on it NOW!

4) Gone girl (Gillian Flynn)⭐️⭐️⭐️  and a half.

It’s a great book. I know it might sound crazy but I could relate with Amy a lot of times. The book is very realistic in the ideology and I loved it. Amy truely is amazing ! 

5) Scion of Ikshvaku ( Amish)

Can't wait to complete it 😁😁 ❤❤ 

Best friend.

So I have this friend. I won't name him for obvious reasons. He is my best friend. I can call him whenever. He stands by me through the downs. You might ask about the ups ! Well I am a bitch. I am selfish and mean and rude and all the bad words. I don't celebrate my happiness with him. I only go to him when I am sad. And the best part is he doesn't mind. Or at least it seems that way. I am very lucky. I am lucky to have a best friend like him. He has tolerated me throughout the past two years. And I am sure he will do the same till we are alive. We fight like cats and dogs. We cry together, laugh together, sing together and what not. I am a bitch. I truly am. And I am sure you would agree if you had seen my behaviour towards him. I suck. I hate myself. But the reason behind it is probably because I am scared. I am scared I might hurt him severely. I have held myself back because I thought a girl and a boy can't be best friends, but now I am happy to say that it's not true. I asked myself “Who said a boy and a girl can't be best friends?!” When he as usual helped me out of my mild depression today. thats when I realised how wrong I had been throughout. My entrepreneurship teacher once said “Everything is about love, every action of yours is a step towards finding true love.” Well I guess that's true. I mean true love doesn't have to mean the love boyfriends and girlfriends or husbands and wife’s have. True love is the love you and your parents have, you and your brother have, you and your best friend  have, your favourite book and you have. So I Love my best friend. 

I don't care the way people might interpret this. All I know is the people who are lucky enough to have a best friend like the one I have will understand me. And the best part is I can almost see his reaction after reading it :) ! 

When I am home.

When I am home I'll wake you up like the Sun.

When I am home I'll hold you like my last breath.

I'll be the wings to your dreams.

I'll be the path to your success.

I'll be the music to your ears.

I'll be the blue to your eyes.

I'll be your shadow in the light.

I'll be your ghost in the dark.

I'll be the star for you to gaze.

I'll be the air for you to breathe.

When I am home I'll be yours and you'll be mine,

We will not care about the world we left behind.

Book(s) Review - March and April.

Hey guys. I know I have not been punctual about my posts for the previous months. I was hospitalized and haven't read a lot. Anyways here goes..

1) Everything I Never Told You (Celeste Ng ) ⭐⭐⭐ and a half.
This is the debut novel of Celeste. 'Everthing I Never Told You' unviels the story behind the death of a teenager Lydia, the favourite child of her parents. It starts off well and keeps you engrossed halfway through. But the second half kind of makes the climax too obvious. This would be on my last 10 book recommendations.

2) The Secret of the Nagas (Amish Tripathi) ⭐⭐⭐⭐ and a half.
Omg omg omg. This is one of my favourite book !! I totally loved it and would recommend every single person to have give it a reading, whether or not s(he) is a reader. I don't mind giving it a 5/5, but I am saving it for something unique.

3) The Oath of the Vayuputras (Amish Tripathi ) ⭐⭐⭐⭐ and a half.
Again, I LOVED this book. I don't know why 9/10 people found the final book boring and disappointing. I absolutely loved the climax. I even cried :P . I recommend this series !!

4) Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (J.K Rowling).

5) Winger (Andrew Smith) ⭐⭐⭐⭐ and a half.
Okay so Winger is a great book. It is about a 14 year old handling his social and love life. It is refreshing. Winger has successfully made me laugh and cry. The climax is great wrenching though. Anyways I would definitely recommnd this to if you are looking for a light read.

Reminiscence.

Bright blue eyes staring at you,

Brown curly hair being brushed by his fingers.

Cheeks turning blush,

Body trembling.

As you lay on his lap,

Playing with his gigantic hands

He watches you with such ease.

He admires you like a swarovski diamond.

He let's you play with his hand.

And then he catches your breath

By holding you still

And staring deep in your eyes.

You stare back

for what seems like an eternity.

You close your eyes

And then you feel his wet lips on yours,

Embracing you like never before

You open your eyes to find him weeping

Weeping for an unknown reason.

For a painful cause.

You lift yourself and walk away

Just like that.

Never turning back.

Never seeing him again.

The Liebster Award.

Thankyou ClockeryFairfeld for the nominating me :) for the Liebster Awards.

According to the information I have gathered. The Liebster Awards are basically like the '20 facts about yourself' challenge on instagram, except that you are to answer 11 question by the nominator and nominate 11 other bloggers to answer your 11 questions. Anyways the following are the steps you have to follow if you been tagged !

1. Display the Liebster Award badge on your blog.

2. Thank and link back to the person who nominated you.

3. Answer the nominator’s 11 questions.

4. Nominate 11 other new bloggers.

5. Draft 11 new questions for the people nominated by you.

6. Notify your nominees.

So here are the 11 questions ClockeryFairfeld has for me:

1. What do you think is your purpose in life?

Hmm... My purpose in life.. Well I think the purpose behind my life is to increase the living population on earth xD Just kidding. To read all the existing books.

On the serious note I think the purpose behind my life is to help achieve perfect equality amongst men and women and to help the poor lead a better life.

2. Is there any person (real or fictional) who has a negative attitude but you sympathise with them?

Sir Nathuram Vinayak Godse.

Not that he had a negative attitude, but most people unfortunate people think he did.

That might be an irrelevant answer but I can't think of anybody except Hrithik Roshan in Dhoom 2 ( he was the villian).
Anyways I don't have a relevant answer for this question. Sorry.

3. What is the one thing you don’t like about yourself and would do anything to change?

I have been over mature for say 16 years (that's how old I am Bl ). So I don't think that I have enjoyed my childhood efficiently (really? Commerce has successfully grown on me). So yup, I would like to change that about my self.

4. Why do you blog publicly rather than writing your thoughts down only for yourself?

We live in a world with the ever growing population of 7.2 billion people. I believe that somewhere on this planet there is at least one person who is going through the same thing as I am. And I want to be able to comfort that person by letting them know that he/she is not alone. That there is someone who truely understands you.
This might sound crazy, but yeah.

5. If you could do only one thing all day long, then what would you do?

I would admire the beauty of nature.

6. What is your outlook towards the world?

The world is a merry place with over hyped, pretty internal as well as external issues.

7. If you die and go to heaven, what would you want it to be like?

My latest Harry Potter mania would not let me answer anything but Hogwarts.

8. Supposing you had only 24 hours more to live, what would you do in that time?

I would write to ask my dear ones or meet them in person if I could to tell them how amazing they are. Why only dear ones. I would tell as many people as I can.

9. Any person who you haven’t seen in a long time but still remember as though it was just yesterday you’d seen them?

Not just one but a lot. And I can't unveil there names unfortunately.

10. What do you think of your life so far?

My life so far has been fantastic and I would like to thank everyone who had made it that way.

11. What cheers you up when you’re down and not in the best moods?

Music. Ice cream. Shopping. Best friends. PASTA. :) .

Hope you are happy now ClockeryFairfeld after making my Sunday morning a brainstorm session! 

10) Which language are you eagerly waiting to learn ?

And finally,

11) What do you think about my blog ? 

The past "perfect" tense.

You see the gola wala standing right outside your building and are longing for a rose gola. But can't eat it because of the prevention alerts about the flu. Isn't that sad ? You spot these GORGEOUS HEELS but can't buy them as they are out of your budget. Isn't that sad ? You fall in love with a character and then realize it isn't real. Plain fantasy. Isn't that sad ? You see a VERY good looking guy and all you want to do is go straight towards him and do "things" with him. Five minutes of adoration later his girlfriend comes along and shatters your dreams. Isn't that sad ?

Well I miss those days when reasons behind your sadness were this simple. I miss how easy life was. How uncomplicated it was. How the secretest secret between you and your best friend  was "I stole her eraser, don't tell her." How your parents knew the in and out of your life. How you had mistaken Nicholas Sparks for a female. How ice cream and chocolates could easily wash away your sadness. How everything was transparent. I miss those days of innocence and stupidity.

Gone are the times when everything was genuine and had a meaning. When an 'okay' just meant 'okay'. When there was a world outside gadgets and the internet. When conversations were face to face rather than on whatsapp. It's weird how the globe shrinked. And how materialism and selfishness is more common in people than humanity. The people in it seem to matter less. It's of little surprise to me how we're so taken by generally "nice" people. Because they're a dying breed.

Time and tide waits for no man. So do the changes that come with its passing. It is wise to accept the changes and find the silver lining of the cloud.

"No matter how much time passes, no matter what takes place in the interim, there are some things we can never assign to oblivion, memories we can never rub away."

P.S This is my first official Collab. I was honoured to work with Matt. Please do check his blog. He writes brilliant poetry !

Book(s) Review - February.

Hello friends !

My final exams got over yesterday and I am happy. This months book review is a bit absurd.

1) The catcher in the rye - J.D Salinger.

This is a classic. And I had a hard time reading it. I took 15 days to complete this ! No, it is not lengthy or anything. It is just too annoyingly descriptive. I think I wasn't an eligible reader. Maybe Sir Salinger wanted to convey something deep and important when describing. So I am not going to review or rate this book. Sorry !

2) Harry Potter and the philosopher's stone

                       AND

3) Harry Potter and the Chambers Secrets.

I haven't read the Harry Potter series. And I know I am too late. But as they say 'better late than never.' So I completely loved the first two books. I enjoyed reading them. And out of respect and obviousness I am not going to review the serious. But here's my favourite quote from the first book -

" To the well and organized mind, death is but the next great adventure."

4) Fangirl - Rainbow Rowell. ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Well I couldn't wait to read this, so I put aside Harry Potter for a while. I just completed it and I absolutely love it. I couldn't help but see through the eyes of the main character Cath and behave like her. I am soo in love with Levi though ! 

Good old school days.

As I turned around to have a look at my classroom for the very last time, all the memories flashed back in front if my eyes, like they show in the movies.

I remember joining the school when I was really young, hardly a five year old. I remember my mother telling me that the schools my 'second home'. I remember crying to go back home on the first day. And now, I am crying because I don't want to leave the school.

Fourteen years. Not a short span of life. I can now only take in as much of it as possible, because tomorrow this will only be a memory. I will have said to pass the 'good old school days'. No more lengthy Monday morning assemblies. No more food fights. No No more doodling on the eons old desks. No more master pieces on the last page of notebooks. No more "give me a blue pen of any colour" moments. No more pen hunting. No more completing notes, twice as long as Mahabharata, a night before submission. No more tour anticipations. No more giving the substitutes hard time. No more mocking school teachers. No more......school days. How long have I waited for this day. The last day of school. How excited I was for the "cool" college life. But today, I cannot get over the fact that I won't sit on these minuscule benches ever again. How much I loathe this day.

No I don't want to leave today. I don't want to go college. I don't want a "cool" college life. I only want to stay and never move on. I love school and I am going to miss this.

P.S I would like to dedicate this to my dear lovely seniors and every Indian 12th grader. Life goes on my friend. It didn't wait for you, it won't wait for me. I wish all of you a great life ahead and more adventures, memories and fun. :)

Book(s) Review - January.

Heya fellas, wassup ! I am sorry for not posting a lot this month, as usual I was busy reading because my mom won't let me read next month. Got my finals coming. Anyways, I have a good news for you guys. I have decided to post monthly reviews of novels I read in that specific month on the last day of the month. Yaay.
So these are the minuscule reviews of the novels I have read this month. :)

1- The immortals of Meluha (Amish Tripathi) ⭐⭐⭐⭐ and a half. Amazing, gripping, compelling novel. However I must admit I was reluctant to read Meluha for no explicit reason. Can't wait to read the sequels !!

2- P.S I love you ( Cecelia Ahern) ⭐⭐⭐⭐. Beautiful concept, beautifully written and a must read. You get so engrossed in the novel that you feel you are there witnessing all the events. The novel is better than the movie. And I would love to have a family like hers. 

3- The Kite Runner ( Khaled Hosseini) ⭐⭐⭐ and a half. Coming from the author of A Thousand Splendid Suns, this wasn't his best work. There were twists and turns after every page which wasn't required. But a good read. Waiting for Khaled Hosseini to write outside his periphery of struggle and pain.

4- Paper Towns ( John Green) ⭐⭐⭐⭐. Amazing book for teens. Has all the elements a teen craves for- romance, fun, affliction, suspense, thriller and what not.  But I would still pick Looking for Alaska over this one.

5- Eleven minutes - ⭐⭐⭐. I know its for "adults" but come on if you have read 50 shades of Grey already, it doesn't matter. A good book throwing light on the life of a prostitute.

6- The year I met you (Cecelia Ahern) ⭐⭐⭐⭐. What I like about this book is that it breaks the stereotype it solely creates by its title. And it is not exactly a love story. It is definitely a good read.
" Sometimes you have to stop still in order to move on... "

7- The Catcher in the rye (J.D Salinger) Well I have just started this book. Review in Feb 

Recipe of a cake.

Hello friends. How have you been? I know I have been away for a little while now, but that was because I was into novels and chocolates. Anyways, I am back now Bl !

   So today I have decided to share with you all a simple recipe of an eggless cake. I had made one for Christmas and it turned out to be great except a little under baked ! You can make this for any occasion.

   Baking a cake in this effortless world is extremely simple. But only a few can master it, particularly because they miss out the intrinsic ingredient. So let's rush to the ingredients needed and procedure.

Ingredients needed :-

1- Butter.

2- Milk.

3- One packet of cake mix (Preferred flavour).

4- Choco chips.

5- Secret ingredient. (Read further to unveil).

Movie Review - PK !

Note: If you want to prevent yourself from getting a headache please read the follow up.

Movie review :-

PK

PK dekhni ho toh, peekay jaane.

(Trans. If you want to watch PK, make sure you are drunk enough. )

Expectations lead to disappointment. And great expectations lead to a massive headache.

Coming from Raj Kumar Hirani, it was a put off. I mean I had lost hope in Aamir khan ever since I watched Talaash and Dhoom 3 ! So it wasn't as disappointing to watch him do PK. Anyways, moving forward with the story. The story is highly fictitious. It's about an alien wanting to go back home to his- "gola", for those who haven't watched it, that's how he refers to "planets". So he comes to our "gola" (earth) for a research, from his "gola" (name not mentioned). And he is completely nude, because apparently people in his "gola" don't wear clothes and they don't talk (because they can hold hands and know what's in somebody's mind). So he is nude and has a remote which would help him go back, in a necklace form. And in order to keep the story going, he loses it. Some Indian stole it(expected). And then he starts his journey to find that remote. Movie gets funny here. All jokes and incidents of the alien trying to get used to our lifestyle. And then he meets this girl (Anushka) , who decides to help him find his remote and he falls in love with her, but doesn't express (expected). And he finds the remote and goes back to his "gola".

Now, the movie's storyline is basically stupid. It is quite hilarious in the beginning. But it fades away with time. The movie is bearable till the interval. And after, don't even ask me about it. I had to drink two cups of coffee to stay awake! The ending is like most of the movies, the girl (Anushka) happens to be narrating the whole story to the audience. She apparently wrote a book on PK. A year later PK returns with alot of aliens from his "gola". Ranbir Kapoor makes his entry and winds up the movie. PK has a lot of parts from other hit movies like 'Chillar Party" and "Oh my God". It is like Raj Kumar Hirani has tried too hard to  convey a social message. (Don't believe in religions).  

The songs are average and not that great or anything like Emraan Hashmi's songs. The lyrics are meaningful and relatable to the situation, unlike other songs like Raghu Pati Raghav and all that crap.  However I am not saying that the movie is a total suckerbag. It is better than quite alot of movies, say Xpose, Housefull 3, Lootera, though I haven't watched any of these. Its just that I had expected a lot from PK and it turned out to be dumb. Sigh.

P.S  Alot of people literally loved the movie and happen to have laughed their asses out. And this review is highly critical and truly mine. So its our choice if you want to go and watch the movie or rather not. If you are an Aamir Khan fan, this review would probably not have affected your opinion and will for watching PK.

Anyways I just realized that this is one really lengthy review. Though I have skipped alot of it, cause it was boring. And you should know that I have an exam tomorrow. So how extremely annoyed I am right now, after have wasted 3 and a half hours on that piece of shit. -_-

 This is my first attempt at movie reviews, so please leave a comment below if you want me to do more. Thank you :)
