Saree Fever On Bollywood Songs — Image source https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n3sYq4Y9hIQ

Bollywood is always inclined to the six-yard garment. Beautiful and gorgeous ladies of Bollywood have created sizzles on-screen draped in sarees; sarees have cast a magical spell on screen since time immemorial. So here, I give you top ten saree songs of Bollywood.

10) Actress Mumtaz’s rock and roll dance in the song ‘Aaj Kal Tere Mere Pyar Ke Charche’ is all time favorite of Bollywood lovers. Her saree was draped in a peculiar manner to give her a different look. Today, her look in this iconic song is registered memorable in Bollywood’s history.

9)Who can forget Sushmita Sen in the song ‘Laga Prem Rog’ in which she donned light brown saree flaunting her gorgeous figure. She was seen dancing in the rain, with her silky mane flying in the air, which set our heartbeats racing, and the location added to the mood, like icing on the cake.

8)Actress Katrina Kaif was seen draped in saree amidst waterfalls and rainy settings in the song ‘Meri Pehli Mohabbat‘ which also featured Akshay Kumar. The song is set sensuously with mild rain in which wet-haired Katrina romances with her on-screen beau Akshay, fluttering her black, orange and white sarees quashing screen completely with her bold and seductive expressions. This dance number added thousands of more fans in her already huge admiring list.

7)Always playing it safe Kareena Kapoor expresses no qualms when she dared to spot an orange chiffon saree in the song ‘Zubi Dubi’ in which the slim-trim actress moved her body with thumka with Amir Khan. The oomph factor of Kareena, added beauty to her appearance in this quirky song, with a saree.

6)Director Yash Chopra’s name is synonymous with Switzerland and chiffon saree. And this romantic combination was seen in the movie ‘Mohobbattein’ in the song ‘Hamko Hami Se Chura Lo’ in which Aishwarya Rai showed her best elegance wearing sheer saree, amongst snow-peaked mountains and green pastures.

5)Love is best seen on-screen in Indian movies when the actress is draped in delicate, diaphanous saree. Sridevi expresses this sort of love in the movie ‘Chandni.’ From yellow to blue, pink and white, with her shy expressions, she did complete justice to the saree in the song ‘Tere Mere Hoto Pe.’

4)This beauty raised the glamor quotient when she transformed herself from a geeky girl to a sexy siren. She pulled out the saree avatar like no other actress could. Dipika was draped in a blue saree with a thin golden border in the song ‘Badtamiz Dil’ which reiterated the fact, that saree is always a crowd puller.

3)We all skipped our beats when we saw desi girl Priyanka Chopra ditching the hot pants and donning a saree with bikini blouse. She moved to the tunes of the song ‘Desi Girl’ from the movie Dostana showing her sexy side and pointing that saree can be more sexy than any other attire and the damsel proved this fact, by this song.

2) Nagma and Sanjay Dutt sizzled on-screen in the song ‘Akhir Tujhe Aana Hai’ making the audience go star-struck. She soared the temperatures to the very high degree with the chemistry she shared with Sanjay in this song. Nagma’s curls and chiffon saree up-ed the hotness quotient when she laid on floor, dancing to the tunes of this song, while she complains to Sanjay for coming late to home, in a lovely manner. Her killer expressions did not just make her hotter for that time, but an object of desire for many generations to come.

1)Our eyes and mind can never forget the sensuously choreographed song ‘Tip Tip Barsa Pani‘ and the breath-taking clad of Raveena Tondon. The husbands of all generations gift their wives the same colored chiffon saree, to see the charm of this coveted garment, which Raveena draped in this scorching song, which even gives the competition to bikini. Raveena was seen embracing and dancing sensuously, displaying her sultry beauty with her lover Akshay Kumar, who looked as macho as it can get.

Fascinated by the grandeur of our culture? Want to unravel the mysteries of the past? Wonder as to what ancient books and burials tell us? Well then, archaeology should definitely garner your consideration for the career choice. The present article envisages presenting a detailed analysis about the career prospects for the profession at hand and throws some light on the modus operandi to realize it into the career. For the sake of brevity, let us begin in the following manner.

What is archaeology and what do archaeologists do?

Archaeology is that interdisciplinary branch of humanities which concerns about the material developments associated with the previous civilizations. This requires a keen expertise in subjects ranging from history, to geography to surveying and even to museology making it an interdisciplinary subject in true sense. The pools of trained personnel responsible to undertake this task are called archaeologists.

What is the qualification required to become an archaeologist?

Prima facie, a formal course in archaeology starts only at the post graduation level but it is imperative on the part of a serious aspirant to start quite early. From the school days themselves one should hone his knowledge about the rich cultural and geographical diversity of our country and should also actively engage in heritage trips to ancient excavation sites and museums. Although, many universities do not obligate any particular stream as a requisite for admissions, certain premier colleges are there which mandate the streams to be Bachelors in history or atleast in any classical language of our country. The most premier institutions offering courses in this discipline are:

Institute of archaeology, Archaeological survey of India-New Delhi (offers a post graduate program in archaeology, Duration-2 years)
Maharaja Sayajirao University of Baroda (runs a bachelors course in ancient Indian History, Culture and Archaeology, Duration-3 years)
Banaras Hindu University runs
An undergraduate program in ancient Indian History, Culture and Archaeology (Duration-3 years),
A post graduate program in Archaeology (2 years) and
A vocational program in Museology and Archaeology, (3 years)

After post graduation, one may either opt for earning the PhD or simply apply for lectureship positions available with different universities. For both cases, one requires to clear the National Eligibility Test. One may also apply for archaeologists positions at the archaeological survey of India itself or may work in the capacities of curators for various government or private museums. Since the majority of the jobs are from the government sectors themselves, the job prospects are quite stable and one enjoys all the perks availed by a typical government employee.

Jobs and Remuneration prospects in Archaeology

Although, one starts to earn a stipend of Rs 8000 per month + HRA as soon as one gets enrolled in the program and as much as Rs 28,000 per month + HRA at the PhD level but it is solely after the recruitment that the employment is of a permanent nature. A typical government employee earns as per a Class I government officer plus the additional perks as enjoyed by the regular government employees. As regards the private employment, salary depends upon the seniority and the reach of the organization one is working with.

A career in archaeology is filled with fascination and offers people, a wide canvas to work upon. Those with a motivation towards the history, a penchant for the civilizations and the desire to discover something pioneering should undoubtedly go for it!

What does it take to make a super-hit film that runs over crores on the box-office? Indeed a director with a good script writer along with an efficient actor and actress on the lead. Is it all? No, we did miss out someone. All of us fix our attention towards the lead of the movie, but hardly does someone notice the characters on the supporting roles, who are even the crucial part a movie.

Here are the list of Top 10 such supporting roles, who didn’t wait to be recognized, but snatched eyeballs with their marvelous performances.

1. Konkana Sen Sharma in Omkara (2006)

Directed by Vishal Bharadwaj, in the year 2006, the film won several National awards apart from being showcased at the Cannes Film Festival. Though having actors like Ajay Devgn, Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor in the lead, Konkana made the attention draw towards her by playing the character of Indu Tyagi. Though she is not seen in much of the stills, but the movie ends with her active participation in slashing Langda’s (Saif’s) throat. She walked away with the Filmfare for Best supporting actress for the same, in the year 2007.

2. Konkana Sen Sharma in Life in a Metro (2007)

An Indian drama, directed by Anurag Basu, portrays the story of nine people, little too much. But again Konkana knows to find her way through. She was again seen flaunting at the Filmfare with her award for Best supporting actress for the role of Shruti Ghosh in the year 2008. Her innocent character as a Radio Mirchi, who is desperate to be married to her colleague RJ Rishi K, warmed every hearts amongst the crowd.

3. Kangna Ranaut in Fashion (2008)

How can one forget the over tempered diva? And the way she flaunts over the ramp is much to describe it all. Directed by Madhur Bhandarkar, having Priyanka Chopra on the lead, Kangna still managed to grab the eyeballs with her marvelous performance. Portrayed as Shonali Gujral, she well depicts the hardships faced by a top model. Apart from those ravishing walks, she even showcases her versatility in acting when towards the end she is found all heartbroken, left with nothing. She well managed to express her character and won the Filmfare for Best supporting actress for the year 2009.

4. Kalki Koechlin in Dev.D (2009)

Directed by Anurag Kashyap, a modern version of Devdas, where marriages are based on money and power rather than eternal morals. Starring Abhay Deol and Mahie Gill on the lead, but Kalki grabs it all on the Filmfare (2010). She plays the role of Chanda, who was trapped in an MMS scandal, and finds out a way to it. Apart from that, she even helped Abhay Deol find a new way of life.

5. Kareena Kapoor Khan in We Are Family (2010)

The Bollywood melodrama directed by Siddharth Malhotra starring Arjun Rampal, Kajol in the lead and Kareena Kapoor Khan in the supporting role. Picturing herself as Arjun’s girlfriend, Shreya Arora, Kareena succeeded in creating an air of sob amongst the audience. Well, though this was the type of family most of the audience did not accept whole heartedly in theatres, but Mrs Khan managed to make it up to the stage of 56^th Filmfare awards, for the best supporting actress, 2011.

6. Rani Mukherji in No One Killed Jessica (2011)

The storyline is based on Jessica Lal murder case. Under the direction of Raj Kumar Gupta, and Vidya Balan as a co-star, Rani Mukherji managed to grab the eyeballs by depicting the spectacular character of Meera Gaity in the motion. She was all set well in the character of a news reporter, debating for the rights of a girl, who was murdered. Her husky voice added a tinge to the flavour of the character, and she walked away with the best supporting actress at the Filmfare awards, 2012.

7. Anushka Sharma in Jab Tak Hai Jaan (2012)

An Indian romantic drama directed by Yash Chopra, starring Shah Rukh Khan, Katrina Kaif in the lead and Anushka Sharma as a supporting actress. Similar to a Bollywood drama, with its predictable plot, Akira (Anushka Sharma) manages well to peep out her character amidst the two super-stars. Playing the role of a Discovery Channel film-maker, she initially falls for Shah Rukh Khan, but later on after reading his diary, she aids to reunite Shah Rukh and Katrina Kaif. She somehow managed to steal the curtains, and paraded away with the award for Best supporting actress at the Filmfare, 2013.

8. Supriya Pathak in Goliyon Ki Raasleela- Ramleela (2013)

A mother is always said to have won hearts. So did Dhankor Baa in Ramleela. Enacted by Supriya Pathak and directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, the movie depicts the era of two clans. Supriya Pathak sketches an outline of a strict mother who arranges a marriage for her daughter (Deepika), who refuses for the same. In the meanwhile, Dhankor Baa chops off Deepika’s finger. Scary! But towards the end she manages to set it all right, and lean towards a good character. Indeed, her efforts paid off and made her win the Filmfare for best supporting actress in 2014.

9. Tabu in Haider (2014)

A motion depicting the story of Kashmir’s unrest situations, directed by Vishal Bharadwaj, with Shahid Kapoor and Shraddha Kapoor in the lead, Tabu managed to grab all the attention with her acting skills. Representing the life of a half-window in Kashmir, as Ghazala Meer, who is betrayed by her own brother-in-law, in conspiring against her husband. She is thus hated by her own son, Shahid Kapoor, whom she fails to convince throughout. But she indeed managed to convince the box office with the message she intended to deliver through the movie, and flaunted away with the best supporting actress at the Filmfare, 2015.

10. Priyanka Chopra in Bajirao Mastani (2015)

How can one forget the era of aristocracy depicted in the motion? Directed by Sanjay Leela Bhasali, starring Ranvir Singh and Deepika Padukone in the lead. Priyanka Chopra however seeked all the attention throughout the movie. Enacting Kashibai, she well managed to merge the two eras, where it is hard to believe that she is the same Desi girl. With those enchanting Marathi sarees and the heavy jewellery worn by her, she sets the audience to tears when finally she gives up upon all hopes of getting her husband back. It wasn’t a shock when she walked away with the Best Supporting actress at the Filmfare, 2016.

TRENDING : Women Against Feminism

Feminism,the most sought after topic and maybe the most misunderstood concept.So,now the modern women ,the beast with a tuxedo herself is being against feminism.

Women Against Feminism, also known as #WomenAgainstFeminism, is a Twitter hashtag, Tumblr blog, and social media campaign on Facebook, YouTube, and other internet media in which women post pictures of themselves, some in “selfie” style, holding up handmade placards stating reasons why they disapprove of modern feminism. Most of the posts begin with the statement, “I don’t need feminism because”, followed by their reason. On a larger scale, it is also a grassroots movement of women who disagree with feminism for various reasons.

Well,it’s never a dull week for feminists, and now Women Against Feminism is the most recent ire du jour. The Tumblr photo collection of women holding signs explaining why they “don’t need feminism” is more annoying than frightening. But Women Against Feminism is certainly getting plenty of attention. The Tumblr started in the summer of 2013. The Facebook group, which was created in January 2014, has 12,000 likes, suggesting it appeals to a not insignificant group of people.

Many of the reasons these women claim for not needing feminism are embarrassingly bad. One post that has made the rounds is “I don’t need feminism because I love masculine men like Christian Grey :-P.”

Feminists, read it and weep. It’s not the fact that there is criticism against feminism, but that the criticism is so insane, unintelligent, and useless. Aside from those who mistakenly think feminists want to kill Christian Grey, many of the women who posted on the Tumblr accuse feminism of being things that it is not.

For example, one woman posted “I don’t need ‘feminism’ because I believe that men and women are EQUAL, not that women should dominate men.” Those posts hurt a bit more because they reveal how deeply misinterpreted feminism is.

There is no question that Women Against Feminism is utterly and completely misguided in its understanding of what feminism is. But they aren’t only the ones. Feminism gets a bad rap, and people perceive the movement as meaning something very narrow and specific—and negative.

An April 2013 survey found just 16 percent of men and 23 percent of women in America identify as feminists. The women behind Women Against Feminism aren’t exactly a minority. However, that same poll found 82 percent of all Americans agree with the statement “men and women should be social, political, and economic equals.” That’s the simplest and most accurate definition of feminism, but the movement has come to be seen as anti-men, liberal, radical, pro-choice, and many other things that it is not.

Think of all the female celebrities who have gone out of their way to declare themselves not feminists and their reasons for doing so. Katy Perry had previously said, “I am not feminist, but I do believe in the power of women.” She recently changed her mind and declared she was a feminist because “it just means that I love myself as a female and I also love men.” While Perry was mocked for her admittedly space cadet-sounding response, she hit on a point that is often lost in the misperception of feminism: At its most core basic level, feminism is about equality between the sexes, not advancing one over the other.

People do not realize you can be a feminist and pro-life. You can be a feminist and a housewife.

One of the other misunderstood terms with feminism is women empowerment. Women empowerment is empowering women to provide equal status to them in all aspects, be it privileges or contributions.

For example, men chauvinist society dictates that no matter what a woman is not supposed to hit a man. That’s just wrong. Women empowerment would be consisting of self defense classes. Feminism is the rule that, “No one should hit any other person, be it man or woman“. Realise the difference? When women empowerment goes astray it becomes okay for women to hit men.

So, feminism is the real goal. Women empowerment is just a road we take to reach it.
One last example. Even today, in some places, women are not educated, since they are consider below men in those cultures.
So, we begin by propagating “feminism” and teaching them that women are equal to men in all aspects. Then we open up local schools, persuade women to join them, provide job opportunities to those women. This is women empowerment. We may even reserve seats in educational institutions for these underprivileged women. However, when even well-to-do women exploit these benefits carved out for those women, that is “women empowerment” gone astray and feminism thrown out the door.

It’s still your choice to be on either side!

Job- I guess that’s every person’s requirement now a days. Everyone needs a job not all gets it. Ever thought about the probable answer? I guess no. only desire of doing a job wont gift you job. For that you need to be prepared and get yourself ready for it. There are several procedures you need to follow in order to be placed in your dream job. If you find yourself helpless in this regards and have no one to guide you, then I would love be your well wisher. The following points you certainly help you and prove me a great guide. Jokes apart, just go through the following… It would certainly be a key to your dream job.

1. Decide What Kind Of Job You Want

When you decide you want to take a job it is compulsory that you have decided what kind of jobs interests you. I mean you can’t be a superhero who prefers multitasking. It’s my advice that when you starting a professional carrier, then try your best to start with the one in which you are the best. Getting involved into many jobs at beginning will create chaos and won’t help you in any way. So set your mind accordingly and be firm with your decision of job.

2. Allot Time For Search

I must remind you something- you are a human being not a robot. So you need to allot your precious time accordingly. You got many personal works to be done. So try to allot your time for job search too. Because neither you can waste all of your time in one work, i.e. searching nor you can ignore this work. So set a time table where you manage your personal works as well as getting to search for a suitable job.

3. For Jobs, The Must Is Resume

Yes resume is a must in every kind of job. You can’t just get into any office and give a verbal introduction. At first you need to submit your resume. If your resume is suitable for the vacancy then you would be given a call for interview. So resume is like the key to better future. In order to prove yourself deserving, you need to have an awesome resume but that doesn’t mean you will fake the resume. Just prepare a genuine one which describes you the best.

4. Search Job

Ready with a resume? Now it’s time to search a place where your resume can do magic. It’s time to search for a job. You are done with the decision making of what kind of jobs you want and you are also done with your resume then what are you waiting for? Just go and look for the jobs which will suit you.

5. Take References

Searching a job is not an easy task. Before you search a right job, you must need to gain some knowledge about the industries or the sectors. And that work can be done by any person who is having experience in such sectors. May that be your father, sister, mother, your friends or may be your teacher, you need to take advice from them before getting involved into any sector.

6. Try For Local Den Go Virtual

I guess you got the heading right. Try to find job in local areas because jumping into the virtual world might cause you harm. Some of the virtual jobs turn outs to be fake. All they do is take away your information and those information are prone to misuse.

7. Market Research

While finding a job, it is required that you do a background check on the company you are going to apply. May that be virtual or real job in a company; you need to do research as you would be a part of the company. And you certainly don’t want to get into any kind of trouble caused by a fake company.

8. Use Your Network

For finding a suitable job, you can also use your networks. You may not have idea but your connections may work magic. After selecting a job profile and a suitable job provider, you have a find a way to get into the job. For that connections will come into role. They may help you by giving recommendation. But always try to minimize taking advantage of your connections because your success depends on how you work not on their words of praise.

9. Buckle Up For Interview

After your resume is selected, it’s time for interviews. You need to be smart enough to prove your resume right. Just learn the etiquette that’s required in a interview room. Try to impress the interviewer with you intelligence and confidence.

10. Be Genuine

This part is a must. As told earlier, you need to be genuine in your work. Always avoid faking it. Because a fake profile and identity may give you months of job but a genuine personality will award you with lifelong success. Good luck with your decision.

Being a woman myself,

Is an honour I feel,

Every soul in which is a truth,

And not a character amidst the reels.
