This means almost 30% of the population has sometime or the other, has seen the anti smoking ad in which Mukesh ’s is seen telling his cancer problem. And later we get to know that he died at the age of 24 in October, 2009. I thank government to bring such inspiring story for anti smoking campaign. It’s around a week when India concluded with another season of Indian ‘Paisa’ League and returned back into the productive season.  No I won’t discuss match fixing here.

Sometimes I wonder, whom to feel pity upon, when a Mercedes and Aston martin collides? I witness fatal accidents everyday amidst this unruly traffic of Hyderabad who does nothing more than adding up to the statistics. These accidents happen more due to our own carelessness. The police database says that by the end of December 28, 2012, 462 lives were snuffed out in road accidents in Hyderabad. In this urban life, everybody is in a hurry. And nobody has time to stop and help somebody. And this want to reach earliest, puts further burden on your accelerator. That much burden, which might prove fatal. Many among us feel that, one, two or even three drinks will not affect their senses. And they can reach their destination with ease. Many of us talk on phone assuming excellent control over self driving. We do not use safety belt, or helmet. We feel we have full knowledge of our safety. We forget that along with our own life, we are risking others lives to...

Heera was extremely intelligent with a good knowledge of computers. When he was 12, his family moved to Vadodara, a city in Gujarat. On one unfortunate evening, Heera gets a high BP stroke.

He ran from the pillar to post receiving a cold-shoulder everywhere. But one fine day he got a ray of hope when his aunt told him that there is a foreign company who was...

Imagine! You are all alone in a pitch dark night with absolutely no traces of light. I guess this already gave you goose bumps. Let me add up to your misery now. You will have to be in that situation for a day. Without eyes, the dependency on all other sense organs increases incredibly. It is very difficult for a normal person like us to imagine ourselves in that scenario. Rather impossible!! So have you ever imagined that, how would the life of a blind person be? Taste of Darkness! I am neither talking about any of the RGV's horror movie nor about a fictitious novel. ' Taste of Darkness ' is a special restaurant of its own kind and India’s first ' The Dialogue in the Dark ' franchise. Dialogue in the dark is a social enterprise which finds its origination in Germany in 1988. It is now located in more than 130 cities of about 30 odd countries.
