Having recently moved to BKC, this happens to be my first exploration - Capital Social. Why this one? because they had Zomato Gold (1+1 food)😉

I visited this place on Friday afternoon, so let me warn you it is not the ideal time of you have to rush. There's waiting plus food takes a while to reach your table and so does the waiter. So, kindly plan the time to have better experience.

Ambiance is good. They play loud music so if you want to have a peaceful meal then this is not the place for you. Food is amazing ❤️

What did we have?
A) Murgh Ghee Roast - Must try! I just loved it.

B) Achari Basa - If you are the one who is fond of pickle and Basa fish then you should definitely go for it.. It has mashed potato below the Basa which makes it filling.

C) Grilled chicken peri peri sizzler - Nicely cooked chicken with peri peri sauce.

D) Oreo mud pot shake - It's not a plant but oreo shake with a great presentation.. As awesome as it looks so does it tastes

Life is better when you add fresh air, a warm campfire, bright stars and lake besides 😊 That's how my weekend was!

Long due wish of mine on my bucket list is finally achieved! And it was going for camping. I had been to Bhandardara Lakeside camping over the weekend organized by Yatrik - The Wanderer. The excitement level was at peak after hearing from number of experiences, stories of friends and colleagues. I also did my research to ensure, I'm all set for campaign. I also created a checklist to make sure that I'm carrying all that is needed for this memorable moment.

Before we get into the details, what excited me the most are their itinerary which included (from their social media pages) -

One Word Review - PATHBREAKER

Once in a while there comes a movie which is dedicated to a particular group of people. ELKDTAL is such a movie which focuses on same-sex couple and throws light on positivity, acceptance and most importantly LOVE.

Movie Review - Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga (ELKDTAL)

The story starts with Sweety (Sonam K Ahuja) a girl from Moga, Punjab being subjected to matchmaking by her family members especially her brother Bablu (Abhishek Duhan) & dad (Anil Kapoor). Sweety meets Sahil Mirza (Rajkummar Rao), a struggling writer in Delhi and Sahil fells in love with her at first sight and goes down to Punjab along with Chatroji (Juhi Chawla), her "so called" friend and struggling actress as a suitor without knowing that Sweety likes him or not. It is then that Sahil gets to know that Sweety is not in LOVE with him but a girl named Kuhu (Regina Cassandra). How things pan out and what happens when the family knows about it marks the further story of the movie.

The movie starts with a very breezy feeling giving you the opportunity to build up the story ahead. Juhi Chawla & Anil Kapoor reunites on silver screen after 18 years but still their chemistry and comic timing is perfect and upto the mark. They make you smile in the moments they share screenspace. Juhi Chawla in particular gives a "mind-shattering" performance and a scene-stealer. Rajkummar Rao is impressive in his looks and he lives the character. Sonam K Ahuja who has maximum screenspace unfortunately fails to deliver a good performance as her dialogues doesn't seem to be comprehensive enough. On the other hand, South actress Regina does a great performance in the limited screen time, she acts quite convincingly. Duhan as Sweety's brother is another performancer to look out for. He has portrayed his character with sheer brilliance.

Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga (ELKDTAL) movie review

Kudos should go to Director Shelly Chopra Dhar along with writer Gazal Dhaliwal for such a  attempt. To portray LOVE on screen is easy but a kind of LOVE which is difficult to accept in this modern society is comendable. The movie focused on the point which says LOVE is LOVE and is not based on any gender, race, caste or any other factors. It starts from the heart and ends to the heart and should be accepted whatever gender, race, caste it may be. A lovely movie made with a pure heart deserves a watch. A movie which will prove to be a turning point in Indian cinema & also society by such topics and acceptance all over the world.

Chang bhal is among those restaurants that will not only satisfy your taste buds but also give you value for your money. Usual, human tendency is that when you go out for food, you tend to spend a lot of money but friends there are restaurants that serve best of food at a reasonable price too.

So, let's see this place as one of the options on NM Joshi Marg in Lower Parel. It's famous for it's North Indian, Malwani and Chinese cuisine. The place is fully crowded during lunch time. The waiters are very courteous and service too is quick.

We opted for Malwani cuisine which included -
A) Bombil Fry - Fresh & perfectly crisp

B) Kombdi wade - This happens to be my all time favorite. So, there's no chance that I could miss this one. Chicken gravy was delicious 😋

The Bombay Coffee House also known as BCH is one of the many cafes opened in Phoenix Market City, Kurla. The mall which is crowded on most of the days and especially weekends when there is hardly any place to sit, this came to our rescue. I was overwhelmed with the simple yet attractive decor of this place. You can see the seating arrangements, they are perfectly comfortable.

It is one place where I'm sure of heading to when I need some peace and my cup of coffee.

One Word Review: ADMIRABLE

Based on the 2016 terrorist attack on Air Force Base in URI, this movie showcases the events which lead to the event and which followed it. Uri: The Surgical Strike depicts all the realtime incidents which happened and how the surgical strike was executed in a realistic manner.

Movie Review on Uri

The story starts with the protagonist Major Vihaan Shergil (Vicky Kaushal) who fights his personal battles as well as leading the Special Forces in Indian Army. He along with his team perform the most dangerous and the most unrealistic war with Pakistan as the after effects of the Uri attack which were being denied by Pakistan.

Coming to the acting, Vicky Kaushal has developed from each and every movie he has acted in. Starting as a skinny lad in Masaan to a best friend in Sanju and now Major Vihaan Shergill, he has really put all his hardwork physically and mentally into it and which is shown throughout the movie. He is flawless throughout the movie and plays his part to perfection. Clearly one of his best performances in his short career span. Paresh Rawal plays his part well and his dialogue delivery and experssions are superb. Mohit Raina gets an interesting character to portray and he justifies it completely. Yami Gautam does a fine job as another Intelligence officer but gets a limited scope. Kirti Kulhari has limited screenspace but portrays it well. She should have been explored a bit more. Aditya Dhar's direction is mindblowing, being a first timer he has done a great job and is one of the directors to look out for in the near future. The combat sequences, ambush, gunfire, fistfights, sniper shots are realistically shot. The camera tactfully follows the soldiers like a shadow. Sound effects are crucial to combat film storytelling, and this war drama uses it effectively for most parts.

Uri - the surgical strike

The movie is intriguing and will make you scream and clap during the warfare scenes. It is a fitting tribute to the Indian Army who day in day out serves the nation and we can in no way repay the sacrifices they do. The movie puts a spotlight on the work which they do thanklessly. Truely URI: The Surgical Strike is 138 minutes of Sheer Brilliance and a MUST WATCH..The start of 2019 for Bollywood is on a HIGH !!!

IMDB- 9.4/10 💪🏼

As we come to the end of 2018, a glorious year for Bollywood which saw movies like Raazi, Stree, Badhaai Ho, Andhadhun, Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety, Parmaanu, 102 not out, Mulk, Tumbaad, Bareily ki Barfi, 2.0, Sanju and many more emerging victoriously while movies having major starcast like Race3, Thugs of Hindostan, ZERO failing majorly at the Box Office.

Bollywood Movies 2018

2018 was a year of success where new talents were encouraged and loved by the audience. Actors like Rajkummar Rao, Pankaj Tripathi, Vicky Kaushal, Ayushmaan Khurana, Ranbir Kapoor were loved by the audience and equally applauded their work due to their choice of movies and acting skills. These actors were in Bollywood for a long time but these movies gave them recognition and opportunity to portray their skills. Bollywood greats like Aamir Khan, Salman Khan, SRK majorly disappointed with their movies and were rejected by the audience. There were some movies which slipped under the radar like Manto, Soorma, Pari, Hichkki but were loved by the audiences who watched it. Debutants like Sara Ali Khan, Jhanvi kapoor, Ishaan Khatar were also loved by audience and have now generated their own fans. Women oriented movies like Raazi, Veere Di Wedding also came and equally loved by the fans and also dominated at the Box Office. Also this year majorly saw an emergence of web platform like Netflix, Amazon Prime where viewers have to pay and watch movies / web series which are barred from censorship. Sacred Games, Mirzapur, Mowgli, Breathe, Bose are some of the web series which were acclaimed and loved by the audiences. These platforms gave chance to viewers to watch their loved movies at their leisure time at their place and whenever they want. There are more series / movies coming to this platform and will be more loved in the years to come. More and more bollywood actors are going to web platform for the type of work which excites them. Regional movies, post Baahubali are been more loved by the audience. KGF Chapter 1 is such an example where a movie has been appreciated by the movie lovers. Marathi movies like Naal, Cycle, Mumbai Pune Mumbai 3 and many more were been equally loved by the audiences.

New age actors like Kartik Aryan, Rajkummar Rao, Pankaj Tripathi, Vicky Kaushal, Ayushmaan Khurana, Nawazzuddin Siddiqui are been loved, acclaimed, appreciated by the audience and are eager to watch their new movies which are coming through. 2018 was a breakthrough year for cinema lovers and here's hoping that 2019 will be another breakthrough year for Indian cinema with movies like Uri, Thackrey, DreamGirl, Made in China, Brahmastra and many more upcoming movies to release. So hoping to have a wonderful 2019 movie lovers.

Merry Christmas & Have a Happy New Year 2019..!!!!
