anger management


Anger management techniques
It is said that the world would become a colourless place without emotions. Anger is considered to be the most prominent emotions of all. Anger is an emotion experienced by one and all be it humans or non humans (animals).  Mild amounts of anger are natural and normal. But, thanks to our busy lifestyles and changes in life patterns aggression amongst people has increased day by day. Anger is not just an emotion or just a state of mind. It triggers heart rate, blood pressure and levels of adrenalin. Anger has several benefits too, and forms part of our fight and flight response. Anger tends to take over the decisions of human and animals too when they are angry. It is a predominant emotion and takes over our behaviour.
But, at times anger can make you take wrong decisions too. Thus, it is important to regulate this emotion too. Some ways to tame your temper are as follows:
1.     Tune in to your feelings and try to find logical responses for the same.
2.     Step back and think what is making you feel angry and what steps can be taken to solve that problem.
3.     Practice damage control and chose solutions that can benefit you the most.
4.     Try and seek help from a counsellor or someone whose decisions you trust.

Movie review "ek thi daayan"


Movie Review – Ek thi daayan
Ekta kapoor has earned a great name as the producer of highly entertaining daily soap series of “saas bahu” serials. She has proved herself to be a great producer in the cinema field too.  She has been successful in delivering hits in all genre be it laughathons like kya kool hain hum or realistic movies like love, sex or dhoka. The versatile producer adds one more feather to her hat by adding completely different yet entertaining genre to her career, the supernatural thriller “Ek Thi Daayan”. This is definitely the most realistic witchcraft that Indian cinema has ever witnessed. Our country holds within it deep dark secrets of superstitions, blackmagic, witchtales and other endless paranormal stories of birth and death. Talking about Daayans, it is said that they are ravishing creatures, have long plaits and black eyes. Ek thi daayan tends to take you to an entirely different world of superstitions and immortal stories. The movie has a smartly integrated screenplay.
The story revolves around a leading Indian magician bobo (Emraan Hashmi) and Tamara (Huma Qureshi) whose lives are falling apart. Bobo starts hallucinating that a daayan will come to ruin her life and haunt his girlfriend Tamara. Bobo decides to ignore the fact and move on with life. And then came the purely irresistible Lisa Dutta (kalki koechlin). Bobo is completely convinced that she is a “Daayan”. But is she really a daayan or is Bobo hallucinating things all over again? The climax is completely unpredictable and that is what makes the movie a blockbuster.
Songs are great, lyrics is mind blowing and the caste has nailed its characters. And Kalki Koechlin has claimed her performance with mind blowing acting. She delivers a terrific performance throughout the film. On the whole “Ek thi daayan” is an appealing supernatural thriller. It tends to catch your attention till the last scene. A must watch for all non-believers of supernatural epics. It takes you for a drive to a different world.
