Last week, I was at the grocery store when I overheard two aunties arguing about whether Navratri starts in March or September this year. One was insisting her daughter’s wedding couldn’t clash with the festival, while the other was planning her annual shopping spree. It got me thinking – so many of us get confused […]

Introduction Every year, there’s that one day when siblings—no matter how far apart—suddenly become soft. Yep, that’s Raksha Bandhan. From pulling each other’s hair as kids to forwarding funny reels today, the bond shifts, but the thread stays. And as Raksha Bandhan 2025 rolls in, it’s time to dig into the box of old Rakhis, […]

It’s followed by people who want to understand the year ahead in simple terms—what might change for taxes, what might affect prices, and what direction the government seems to be taking. With budget 2026 close, the usual curiosity is already there: the date, the […]

We celebrate International Women’s Day every year in March. But if we are being truly honest, women don’t need “Happy Women’s Day” forwards or wishes.
