Tantra - Adi - A Book Review

Book: Tantra Author: Adi 
Price: Rs.144 @26% Discount at Flipkart 
Genre: Thriller 
No. of Pages: ~350 

Introduction: 

Let me be honest here – I was prejudiced when I picked this up for review. We don’t need another Stephenie Meyer, and that too an Indian one. But, turned out I was wrong – and I blame the poorly designed book cover and the short synopsis behind the book for it. They are very misleading. Though I should have guessed from the name of the book itself, the book has very little resemblance to SM's Twilight.

An Interview with an Indian Holy Cow!


Hello everyone and welcome to Stranger-Than-Fiction Interviews. 

After our last encounter with Endosulfan (which was, honestly, quite disturbing), it has been a really long time since we did an interview.

Therefore, we have a really special guest for you today, Ms. Kamakshi.


Me: Welcome Kamakshi. Could you please introduce yourself to our readers?

Kay: Hi Everyone. I am Kamakshi and I am a cow. Yes, you got that right – I am a Cow. I live in the swanky Indian city of Bangalore. 


Me: And yes, she is quite beautiful for those of you who have not seen her. Tell me, Kamakshi...

Movie Review – Guru – For the Blindness in Us

Name of the Movie – Guru 
Language – Malayalam 
Genre – Fantasy 
Year of Release – 1997 

The Malayalam movie industry is not a big one. It does not churn out blockbusters, and it certainly does not have many big-budget movies. Yet, this film industry is one known for a lot of low-budget experiments and innovative story-telling. Guru is one such movie that dared to tread the world of fantasy in 1997, when the rest of India was busy making commercial and art movies. Guru falls in neither and thereby in both categories.

Turning 2!

Feels not too long ago that this blog turned ONE!

And Blogoversary tells me that this blog is 2 already. Today, I complete 2 years of blogging! Yippee!!!


A lot changed in the last one year in my life and in this blog. Have added some quiz questions, some really cool advertisements (twice every month), some movie and book reviews, and tried my hand at 55 Fiction too.
