||Art Story||

Art and crafts were never a passion in my childhood. Though I was really passionate about minute Biological and Geographical Drawing assignments. It was during my graduation, I find the passion/love for arts. As a matter of fact, it was Geography Practical Projects which eventually helped to grow the patience in me. Later on, the journey with art continues with Glass Paintings, Canvas Paintings, few DIY paintings for home decorations etc. 

Amidst this Pandemic, when we all are fighting not only with the virus but at the same time with our self-existence too, it is the Art and Crafts which is helping people like me to improve skill set, inspiring & motivating us to survive the complete lockdown stages, mentally and physically. 

Madhubani Or Mithila Art is an art with complex yet eye-catching geometric figures. This was originated by a group of women in Mithila Region, Bihar. Natural & Religious subjects, incidents, thoughts, natural objects like Sun, Moon, Plants etc. were depicted in the freshly plastered mud walls of the houses of that region, through this art. Now a days, it became a globalized form of an art and is highly acknowledged worldwide too. We can proudly say that it is one of the greatest Prides of Indian Art and Culture. 

I am attaching a small, yet mind engaging attempt from my end to portray Madhubani Art. This was an amazing experience altogeter and I have accomplished it successfully, which was beyond my imagination. I know that it is not the perfect one and there are many areas for the improvement too. Do let me know if there is any unpardonable mistakes & if there is, then it's purely not intentional. 

Hope You Like It!

Egypt in 5 Days: A Dream Journey Through History, Pyramids, and the Nile

Egypt Travel Guide & Full Itinerary (4th Nov - 9th Nov 2024) Dreams came true when we spent 6 magical days in Egypt! Honestly, you can’t fit the beauty of Egypt into a one-minute vlog — and it wasn’t easy to explore all the top spots in just 5 days either. Every day started early, walking under the bright sun, exploring incredible sites, and ended late at night. From the calm moments by the Nile River, standing before the Great Pyramids, to seeing real hieroglyphs from ancient history — these memories still feel fresh even today. Here’s our full plan — perfect if you want to explore Egypt in 5 days! (But if you want a relaxed trip covering everything, 8-9 days are better to include the Nile Cruise and Alexandria — we had to skip those due to time and budget.) We also kept track of all costs! If anyone needs the expense details, just DM me! --- Important Travel Tips: 1. Travel Duration: If you can, plan for 8-9 days to fully enjoy Egypt, including a Nile River Cruise an...

||আমার দিদা||

আমার ঠাকুমা আমার জীবনের একজন গুরুত্বপূর্ণ মানুষ। অনেক দিন ধরে ইচ্ছা ছিল ওনাকে নিয়ে আমার কাটানো সময়ের কথা লিখে রাখা। পাঁচটি গল্প লিখেছি প্রথম অধ্যায়ে, যাতে ওনার অনুপস্থিতিতে ও ওনাকে কাছে পাই। আশাকরি ভাল লাগবে।।  ।।আমার দিদা।।  পর্ব: ১ আমার জন্মের আগে আমার "দিদা" মারা যান। শোকাতুর মা কে ডেকে একদিন ঠাকুমা আদর করে বলেছিলেন যে তোর মেয়ে আমাকে "দিদা" বলেই ডাকবে, আমি ওকে দিদার অভাব বোধ করতে দেব না কখনো।  কথা রেখেছিলেন। জীবনের শেষ দিন অবধি "আমার দিদা" ছিল আমার সবচেয়ে প্রিয় বন্ধু।  পর্ব: ২ আমার দিদা বেশ মজার মানুষ ছিলেন। অনেক সময়ে নিজের অজান্তেই এমন অনেক কাণ্ড ঘটাতেন, তাতে আমরা হেসে গড়াগড়ি খেতাম কিন্তু তিনি নিজে থাকতেন অবিচলিত কখনো বা স্মিতহাস্য। সে অনেক দিন আগেকার কথা। আমি নেহাতই তখন শিশু। সপরিবারে দিল্লি থেকে বেড়িয়ে ফেরত আসার দিনের ঘটনা। তখন আবার এখনকার মতন এ সি কামরার চল ছিলনা, স্লিপার ক্লাস ই ছিল ভরসা। দুপুরে খাওয়া দাওয়ার পর যখন সবাই দিবানিদ্রা দিচ্ছে, দিদা তখনও জেগে, ছটফটে মানুষ হলে যা হয় আর কি। যাইহোক, ট্রেন কানপুর স্টেশনে দাড়াতে তিনি ...

||I Miss My Office During The Pandemic||

Image
There are lot of reasons to be in Love with my workplace. My office is in a big Tech Park in Chennai, and is surrounded by lot of greeneries🌿☘️🌳 which is really unusual these days in a city life. It's Obvious that I miss working in the Office environment, long chats with my Team, Physical Team Meetings, Birthday Celebrations, Biriyani Treats,Tea Breaks etc️. I miss Office Events, the only chance to get decked up with sarees and matching jewelleries. I miss Dominos and Hunan. I miss Afreen and Anu, my office besties and Gossips, hours of sharing baseless thoughts. I miss my cubicle, my second home, where I spent hours with countless emotions and it's the witness of many successes, failures and fight backs. I miss the food court, where we used to get everything from Chinese to Dessert items, under the same roof. Spent lot of "Me Time"s and "Bestie Time"s, there.  On a funnier note, I am worried about my makeups and dresses as well. They are also on a long le...
