OPPO Reno2 is the Camera Phone You Need

For the longest time, I had an average camera phone and looking through its lens felt like watching a CAM rip of a movie that has just released this week; the quality was awful. When I captured videos, it felt like they had been taken on those digicams from the ’90s. It is time for an upgrade.

All Millennials are Artists, Selfies are Our Stage

There is no such thing as a bad selfie. The angles are flattering, the extended arms are thinned, out and the jawline becomes the hero we always wanted but never had. So why then are selfies such a taboo on social media?

Game of Thrones: Are We Ready to Let Go of Jaime Lannister?

When Game of Thrones began, nobody could have predicted that the person to best embody why second chances matter would be Jaime Lannister. If Jaime is to fall in the next episode’s battle, he will be the most sociopathic, twisted, and occasionally inhuman character for whose death I’ll shed a tear.

Game of Thrones is Dead, Long Live Lord of the Rings

Nearly 20 years after the first film, and half a century after the book’s release, JRR Tolkien’s LoTR is returning to Amazon. It proves that tits, blood, and swear words do not a fantasy epic make.

“Tussi Na Jao!” How Do You Convince Indian Parents You Want to Move Out?

If I were a 28-year-old, 200 years ago, I’d probably be heading out into battle tomorrow. If I were a 28-year-old about 2,000 years ago, I’d be the village elder. But somehow, here I am at the age of 28, still enjoying the free snacks in between free meals. And every time I bring up moving out of home, my parents think I’m hinting at marriage plans.

It’s All Predictable in The Upside Down! Did Stranger Things Really Need Season 3?

The very elements – smart kids with a scientific bent of mind, a mysterious girl with psychokinetic and telepathic abilities, a monster who is difficult to defeat, and adults who carry immense emotional baggage – that made Stranger Things a phenomenon, are the things that are making it go from good to predictable every year. Truth is, it ain’t getting any stranger than this.

Enter the Dragon: My Battle with a Bat, Straight Out of Game of Thrones

#Don’tSpoilTheEndgame: A Plea To All Spoilsports Who Ruin Films and TV Shows

Over the last few days, a few lucky social media users who got to see Avengers: Endgame before everyone else have been celebrating by live-tweeting the plot at everyone else. This is a new low for internet trolls, especially considering how far the Russo brothers have gone to keep the details of the film under wraps.
