 The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari           The following post has been divided into two parts. The first My Journey , followed by The book . In order to understand the importance the book held to me, it is necessary to understand the journey before. The value of the destination is truly understood only when the struggle before it is known.  My Journey           This year (2020) has been difficult for a lot of people due to the pandemic. Humans are a social animal. Self-isolation isn't something that comes naturally to us. As for everyone, 2020 was a mental roller coaster for me too.           The year had a rocky start. I fell really sick in February, just before my boards. This put me in a state of delirium. I wasn't sure if I could give my board exam. I missed major events during this period.

Death, Lies and Cyanide            One of India's most disturbing true crime stories, produced by Asiaville.

It is a story where ambition turns into obsession, aspirations into desires, and one lie into a mountain of lies.            What is more dangerous than a murderer who gets away with murder? ...

  Enola Holmes           Enola Holmes.... yes, 'Holmes'. The great detective Sherlock's little sister. Let me begin with the formalities: Written by, produced by, directed by, starring, etc... someone who I didn't bother to google. Since you are already using the net, you might as well google it at your convenience. Now, as far as the movie is considered, I feel it is a one time watch. Being a reader of Nancy Drew and Hardy Boys books, I had correctly predicted the climax of the movie, so the mystery wasn't such a big surprise to me. However, the journey was fabulous.            Enola was raised by her mother ( Helena Bonham Carter / Bellatrix) who gave her a very unique upbringing. She was raised to be a feminist and a part of the suffrage movement. However, Mrs. Holmes left her home to Enola Holmes who was now a ward of Mycroft Holmes (the elder brother of Sherlock Holmes ). Mycroft wanted Enola to attend a school that te...
