Before I put forward my analysis on Dance and choreography, let me clear it out that I am a clumsy person and could hardly even stand on my feet for a proper minute. But I love art and observing it as many times possible before my deadlines approach demanding me to pass in the tests. (Studies blehh) <\/p>
I am no judge of anything, moreover art is subjective and it cannot be given a score or a rank.<\/p>
Good choreography could sometimes even take over the music and there have been innumerable instances of choreography playing a major role in the success of music videos.\nI will break down my observations on what factors contributed to beautiful portrayal of some of the popular sound tracks. Lats Gow<\/p>
Saree ka fall sa (R Rajkumar) <\/i><\/b><\/p>
The music's great but it is also one of the songs with relatively greater number of views during the time of it's release and it is so, because of its choreography.\nPrabhu Deva <\/b>is not only an exceptional dancer, but also understands what might hook people into the music. He is one of the fewest artistes who has used the concept of dancing to the tunes in literal sense.<\/p>
\nNow, say there is a song playing, it has 2 or more instruments playing different tunes, one relatively slower than the other. Generally, everybody concentrates on the faster track (you find the dancers dancing to it) and there's a slower track in the background which only few people recognize. <\/p>
What Prabhu Deva has managed to crack, is that, he considered the slow track too in his songs, that is, if you take an example of Saree ka fall sa, you see Sonakshi Sinha and Shahid Kapoor dancing to the lyrics (faster track) while the background dancers have slower moments (according to the slower track) or VICE VERSA.<\/p>
He made use of all the tracks through dividing the performers into dancing to parallel music respectively.\n \nIt gives the song a complete look and it is also what makes you want to dance along with them.<\/p>
<\/p>
This is just an example I have used which I think most of us would know but he used this brilliant concept in his other songs as well, like Key Sara Sara<\/b><\/i> to which he and Madhuri Dixit shaked a leg to. In this case, they danced to the relatively slower music while the background performers took care of the faster music.<\/p>
\nIn case you too love watching great performances, do not miss out on watching <\/span>Urvasi Urvasi,<\/i><\/b> <\/span>Andhamaina Premarani, Mukkala Mukkabala <\/b><\/i>and <\/span>Vennelave<\/b><\/i> to name a few of his marvelous works (great complements to AR Rahman's compositions), this time with your observation lens on.<\/span><\/p><\/p> \nUndalenandhi ( Viswaroopam) <\/i><\/b><\/p>Pandit Briju Maharaj<\/b> was not only a versatile Kathak dancer but also gives out an undeniable coordination in his choreography. Viswaroopam is a film that has stood out not only for it's story and cast but also this beautiful song which remains in your mind very long even after the movie ends.<\/p> While the lyrics and the dance successfully told their audience a story, Pandit Briju Maharaj managed to stick to the character of one of the leads of the film who takes part in the dance. (Andrea Jeremiah) <\/p>It is the introductory song of two of the lead characters in the film and Andrea is one of the dancers, she arrives late to the dance and is a bit forgetful of her steps yet playful. You get all this just from the little things he has added in the choreography. The song is one of the classics. <\/p>The most common thing in both these men is their <\/span>abi<\/span>lity of storytelling and good coordination. <\/span><\/p>According to me, you need not always have huge sets, hundreds of background dancers and stunts performed in your music to stir the audience, it can just be an engaging story, coordination and knowing the psychology of your audience. <\/p>What I have mentioned are VERY FEW examples because there is lots of delightful stuff which we are missing out on and this is just a reminder for you to stop, look around..who knows what fascinating things you have been unintentionally ignoring all this while? <\/p><\/p> \n#Choreography\n\n<\/p>"}]

Envisioning with exhilarated thoughts about the new chapter in our lives, with our hopes sparkling with anticipation ,we start a new phase in our life \u201cCOLLEGE \u201d. College......the first thing that pops to a sixteen year old's mind is opportunities, a new start and a future that can be shaped by you. A chance to see a new world opening in beauty and light . It was the orientation day in our college, I entered the college for the first time having these butterflies in my stomach. Excited, yet nervous at the same time. The college had some kind of warmth that cozied up my heart and gave me a secure feeling that everything's going be just perfect from now on . I strongly believed that this is the place where I will get to know me ,who I really am and find my path. With this ammunition ,I started off my journey .<\/p>
\nMy first year started and I made myself busy with studies , affinities, getting to know people, making friends and most importantly...... finishing assignments and updating records . Now came the second year , where we realize that it is time for us to take up responsibilities and start focusing on our future and channelize all our energy into building our career ,so I started working on it . The second and third year got done really quick . Years passed like seconds for me and I\u2019 am now in my final year ,the most crucial time where we decide what\u2019s next, and in about six months , I\u2019ll be out on my own down the path that I\u2019ve built for myself .<\/p>
\nNow when I look back , I realize that Three years is a lot, where a lot can happen, a lot for a person to explore and to know about themselves . This is a place where we are free to make choices , change our future .for some people, college is all about having fun and living their life where as for some ,it is an opportunity for them to open their gates to the future, some find their purpose in life while some find their passion. For me, college was a lesson, rather a realization that life\u2019s all about balancing and evolving yourself and is about how well we best utilize our resources that we have at present rather than complaining about what we don't .It is important for us to cherish every tiny moment and also, being with people who bring out the best in you. Everyone has their own perspective and stories to tell about their college life .what\u2019s yours ? \n\n<\/p>"}]

What is so lovely about grandparents? I\u2019d like to say that they give us unconditional love, kindness, patience, humor, comfort, lessons in life, and most importantly the delicious food. <\/p>
I still remembered days, when they used to become a small kid with this kid, Nani preparing mouthwatering dishes for us. Sleeping in their lap listening Lories, compiling about my parents when they scold me, my maskanapan when I want something from them. My day wouldn\u2019t complete without listening to a story from my grandma and my grandpa used to teach me slokas every morning. My grandma used to have a habit of watching serials and I used to watch movies and cartoons, we used to fight for the TV remote finally I used to give-up watching serials.<\/p>
My grandparents are always happy about the little things. They used to celebrate every small achievement of mine. Whether I sing a song or win a prize in a competition that would be a miracle to them and will be so happy that, they used to call relatives and friends and speak about it.<\/p>
Grandparents are the best company one could ever have, as they saw the entire life, they have much to speak and share about, they will have a solution to every problem of life, they\u2019ll give a piece of better advice than a friend. My paternal grandma used to tell me about how my father used to be in his childhood and my maternal grandma about my mother. Through them, I come to know about some funny incidents and secrets of my parents, recalling them will generate fun in our home.<\/p>
I used to spend much of my time with my paternal grandparents. Unfortunately, they died when I was in the 10th standard. I miss them a lot.<\/p>
Coming to my maternal grandparents, I think I would be the most annoying and most loving among the grandchildren they had. I love taking snaps with filters and secret videos of them later on showing them to the whole family. My grandma is a kind of senti, so I used to argue now and then with her. They still scold me for teaching pubg to my mama and my cousins. Besides, they playing 24*7 they give blame on me for teaching them. After all, I spend the best time of my life with them.<\/p>
Grandparents hold our hands for a little while but our hearts forever. Spend as much time as you can with them as you have to learn a lot for them. Their experiences will help you to lead your life happily and the fun you will have with them is unforgettable.<\/p>"}]
It was a proud moment when the Indian Space Research Organisation succeeded the mission Chandrayaan 2.Chandrayaan 2 is the second lunar exploration mission which was launched on 22 July 2019 at 2:43 pm from Satish Dhawan Space Centre cited in Sriharikota, on GSLV mark-3, almost 10 years after Chandrayaan 1.<\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1566396577645","data":"5d5d4afbe86ec"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1566396577646","data":"
Chandrayaan 2 has been significant as it is the first space mission to conduct a soft landing on moon's south pole region using home-grown technology and software(Yes! WE DID IT!). The main aim of this year mission was to provide recognition to India-to set India's mark in space and to inspire the forthcoming future generations to invent and explore. It also includes extensive mapping of the moon's surface in order to study its topography, elemental abundance and mainly, to check for any signs of water, ice or hydroxyl.<\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1566396577647","data":"5d5d4b4828b55"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1566396577648","data":"
Chandrayaan 2 launch wasn't simple. There were a lot of glitches in the system and a lot of problems regarding its launch. On 12 Nov 2007, Cosmos(Russian Federal Space Agency) along with ISRO agreed to work together on Chandrayaan -2 launch where Rosmos was to work on the lander and ISRO on the rover and orbiter. This mission was reviewed by the Cabinet in 2008 by Manmohan Singh and approved it. Everything was finalised by ISRO as per the schedule but the mission got postponed in 2013 and rescheduled to 2016 as Cosmos failed to deliver the lander due to failure in Fobos Grunt(a sample mission attempted by the Russians to return to one the moons on Mars named Phobos). However, the agreed to deliver the lander by 2015 but eventually failed.<\/p>
It was then, at that moment that ISRO decided to do everything on their own. They scheduled the launch to March 2018 but due to technical glitches and variation in the landing sequence,the launch was delayed. <\/p>
It was postponed, again to February 2019, as the lander's legs got damaged. Then, the mission was set to launch on July 14, 2019, to 02:51 pm IST but was aborted due to technical issues. Finally, on 22 July 2019, at 02:43 pm IST, the mission was successfully launched. The estimated cost of the launch is said to be $141 million.<\/p>

Grandparents are fun to be around. Not only do they spill pearls of wisdom but also fill our lives with abundance of love and care. The feeling of being around them cannot be described through words. The love and affection shed by grandparents is unmatched. Most grandparents share a special bond with their grandchildren.<\/p>
If I could be like anybody, I would wish to become more like my grandfather, who has inspired me to strive for success, like the smell of old, dusty books which reminds me of his admiration on learning. An avid collector, he had many books, most of which went unread. He owned books on everything from medicine to Spain, to several sets of encyclopedias. They became just part of the scenery, collecting only dust and memories. I started reading books along with him and got addicted to it and this addiction is worth it. <\/p>
He showed me how important life really is. My grandfather is just like my mentor.He is the one who is always there for me. No matter what happened in my life, he is always the one who looked beyond my faults. It seemed like no matter what I done; I is always a perfect little boy to him. My grandfather is great at many things. He loves shooting and have a great collection of guns, as we belong to a defense background, he became used to it and now he just can't live without it. I always used to follow him whatever he does, wherever he goes I just follow his trail, till date it's same, my dad always says you have all characteristics of your \"DADA\" (Grandfather), and I take it as a compliment. A person who taught you life, and if you are able to become like him, In my point of view you have achieved everything.<\/p>"}]
Today is the World Senior Citizen's Day!<\/b> Well, they funnily claim to say... we are still youngsters! Truly agreed! Senior citizens are damn energetic and are superpowers of a family indeed... because; the comforts and happiness that we are enjoying today are the outcomes of all their immense efforts and hard work.<\/p>
We are the very affectionate ones of our parents but are the stars of the eyes of our grandparents. We have heard our parents so many times say to their parents, rather complain; \u201cyou didn\u2019t love us the way you love our children!\u201d and I remember how my daadi used to support me when my father used to scold me\u2026 regarding my marks in the progress report.

The thought of going to Nani\u2019s house during vacations is a pleasure for all of us irrespective of the age, I can say this very confidently. Even this was the means through which all family members used to gather on spent time all together.

One who is brought up by his or her parents and grandparents is strengthened doubly, by double the experience, double the love, twice the fun and two times the values and guidance they get.

All were helpful to me in building a good character.<\/p>

Those days were pretty good and those memories were everlasting. But these days got busy due to academics\u2026 got busy with friends, phones, I-pads, and other schedules and not much spending time with them. Even they understand me! I surely say that this is even the same in the case of many. But irrespective of all these\u2026 we must also keep some time for our grandparents. It is because of them that we all have had a great childhood. It is because of them we have great moral values. They have taught us to love unconditionally, be patient, get up & try just once more when we thought it was impossible.<\/p>
\nOur part of today would be making our senior citizens know how important they are. Making a meal together, avoid phone and reconnect with them. Do the household chores and talk with them and know their experiences which led them to their success and consider them because Senior citizens were once the nation\u2019s youth. Let's not only hang out with our friends even hang out with our grand parents... It would be really fun I say...<\/p>"}]

Grandparents are such a solace to the children. As they grow old, they also require attention and care. We should spend quality time with them. No one can ever replace them in our lives.<\/p>","type":"txt","id":1566312398903}]
Think of the movies and television shows you have watched recently.did any of them featured older actors?what roles did they play?how were these older actors portrayed?<\/p>
Many media portrayals of the elderly reflect negative attitudes towards aging.in north America society tends to glorify youth , associating with beauty and sexuality.in comedies,the elderly are often associated with grumpiness or hostility rarely do the roles of older people convey the fullness of life experienced by seniors- as employees,lovers,or the myriad roles they have in real life.what values does this reflect?<\/p>
One hinderance to societiys fuller understanding of aging is that people rarely understand it until they reach old age themselves.<\/p>
While the landmark of maturing into adulthood are a source of pride,signs of natural aging can be cause for shame or embarrassment.some people try to fight off the appearance of aging with cosmetic surgery . although many seniors report that their lives are more satisfying than ever,and their self esteem is stronger than when they were young,they are still subject to cultural attitudes that make them feel invisible and devalued.<\/p>"}]

I woke up to the sight of bright sunrays streaming into my room. A pile of clothes suffocated me which lead to my ragged breathing. There was neither chirping of birds nor rustling of leaves. There was neither clatter of milk cans nor chatter of maids. There was neither hustling of newsboys nor whistling of kettle. A wave of calmness and uncertainty descended upon me. I stood up with a jolt realising the eerie silence. It slowly dawned upon me that it was the afternoon of my summer vacation. I ran through the hallway searching for my grandpa. He was bent on his knees uprooting carrots from our greenhouse. <\/p>","type":"txt","id":1566316946248},{"data":"
My grandpa was a scientist by profession but nature was his passion. When he is not working in a lab he is either toiling in soil or tinkering his radio. Having working parents, I spent most of my childhood at grandparent's house and I don't regret it. It was because of him I learned many things related to gardening and horticulture. It was a surprise to many when an 8-year old could tell the difference between chlorosis and necrosis. My parents and teachers were in awe of my knowledge I gathered from grandpa's garden.<\/p>","type":"txt","id":1566317196544},{"data":"
During a typical summer vacation, my day used to start by helping grandpa In the garden. Listening to his stories was my favourite pastime. In the evening we snacked upon fruits and watched David Attenborough's documentaries. Suffice to say, I grew up as a 10-yearold with extensive knowledge of plants and animals. Thanks to him I always had never-ending narrations and stories. He instilled curiosity and scientific temper in me which transformed my life.<\/p>","type":"txt","id":1566317492918},{"data":"
As an adult, I course through the day with remorse realising your absence, void in my busy life.
