Cricket has had a long history of turning the fortunes of many people coming from humble backgrounds, and we as a country celebrate these players for their incredible dedication to the sport and sheer determination and hardwork. One such player, fresh from Hyderabad, is Mohammed Siraj.<\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1487671749012","data":"58ac121c1bcef"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1487671785527","data":"
Mohammed Siraj's base price at the IPL auction was Rs. 20 lakhs, and following the bidding, was sold to Sunrisers Hyderabad for Rs. 2.6 crores, an amount which has brought much joy in Siraj's household. <\/p>
\"My parents are very happy,\" he says in a telephonic interview with stuMagz, \"it is a dream come true for me. Ever since I was a kid, all I wanted to do was play cricket.\"<\/p>
Siraj is a pacer, and has played for the Under 23 team for Hyderabad after getting his break with Col Acrylic. The 22 year old then went on to play the Ranji trophy, representing Hyderabad, while building up his reputation with his fantastic bowling, becoming the frontline pacer for the teams. <\/p>
Siraj's father beams with pride now, when asked about his son. He is a auto rickshaw driver and is on record saying he will continue his trade even though his son has struck the gold mine, but the unmistakable glow on his face for his son's achievement is hard to miss. \"My parents wanted me to study and get a good job so I can help the family financially.\"<\/p>

He aims to buy a house first, before deciding on where to go from that. He credits Hyderabad team coach Bharat Arun and team Captain Badrinath as his biggest motivators, \"They encouraged me, made me realize the potential I had and believe in myself. I am forever grateful for that\" he says. <\/p>
On being asked what would be his advice to students who want to get into cricket as a career, Siraj ponders the question for a while, perhaps considering the journey he's been through so far, before saying, \"This is a journey that can be quite unforgiving, but you've got to remember what's important and focus on what you want to do, keep your fitness in mind and stay at the top of your game by regular practice and matches. Failure is part and parcel of this sport, you have to learn to take it in your stride, then focus on what to improve and push yourself till you make it. That is the only way.\"<\/p>

It is human to feel for the fellow man, empathy is a gift humans have, a gift that has driven us to great heights since the inception of mankind. However, there are many who feel they are just another cog in the machine, so tiny that they are afraid them doing anything won't change the problem at hand, or that they aren't old enough to deal with the consequences. It's because of this, Kundhan Karunakar is an example, a pathbreaker and an all around amazing person. We catch up with the founder of Oneness Organization, a national NGO focusing on education, sanitation and various other projects in rural areas. <\/p>
\"I remember there was a child who couldn't afford a cycle because his parents were daily wage laborers,\" he recounts, \"at first, I asked him in jest what he wanted from Santa Claus, since it was around Christmas time, and he replied, without batting an eyelid, that he wanted a cycle because he wanted to help his mother with chores. When you hear something like that, it really moves you.\"<\/p>

We got our classmates and school friends to help us out, but eventually everyone went on their own path because school ended, and we were back to two people. The rapid surge of growth happened from 2010 onwards, when we had 350 people, it went on to become 16000 to 18000 people over the years,\" he says, \"it went national in 2015 when the organization started in Gujarat.\""},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1487654868254","data":"58abd0105c482"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1487654883076","data":"\"We have also recently adopted a village, Vaddadi, a dream come true for me,\" he proudly says, \"we now have 67 projects in the bag, and the current roadmap for 2018 is open scholarship for girls.\" The 22 year old had dreams of adopting a village since he was 16 years old, and he finally did it, an example for all students, as he sets a precedent for excellence, both in empathy and achieving goals.
Physical fitness and health is one of the main concerns for our generation of millenials as a whole. You can hardly go by one day of active social media-ing without coming across glo-ups and #GymSelfies. Trust me I\u2019m hardly 20, and I can\u2019t keep up with the terminology. Being an introvert that I am, a tv series and 3 hour movies were always more interesting than a workout. But soon after 2 years of intermediate education(if you can call it that), I could feel my body become weak and exhausted after a game of football. Even the flight of stairs up to my class was tiring. <\/p>
But enough about me, let\u2019s talk generally, why so many students between the age of 18-21 start hitting the gym. Firstly, because you want to look good. There\u2019s absolutely nothing wrong with it. You can like the way you are. You can want something different. It\u2019s totally up to you. Being healthy and hitting the gym can really elevate your personal evaluation. Can change the way you look at yourself. Improve your body language; make you more confident around people. Remember, the way you find your motivation is completely personal. <\/p>
Secondly, there\u2019s little physical activity in your daily schedule. Most students have a busy college schedule. On an average, around 8 hours of your day are spent sitting down on a bench. This frustration can be really funneled into something productive. To add to this, there\u2019s just enough moving around inside a college campus. Most colleges have a strict stance on sports during college hours and most students don\u2019t have the luxury of spending another 2 hours 30 kms from their homes. Working out can truly help you went the tardiness and make your mind a bit more refreshed and active. <\/p>
Thirdly, the medical side. I regret boring you with disease stuff but personal health shouldn\u2019t be ignored. Working out regularly reduces the risk of a muscle pull or an injury, improves your mobility, two things as a millennial one doesn\u2019t want to struggle with. It produces good cholesterol, slows sacropenia (muscle loss in old age), and reduces the risk of certain types of cancer in both men and women. It can even help your mental health. Working out is a known cure for people suffering from depression or anxiety, it can even help insomnia and is a way better option than popping pills. <\/p>
After the intense and notoriously pressurizing phase of intermediate or plus 2 education, one shouldn\u2019t just let laziness creep into daily routine. Working out isn\u2019t even about building up huge biceps and flaunting that \u2018V\u2019 on your back. Working out can be anything. Some prefer lifting weights, some prefer running for a bit. It\u2019s just a way of relieving stress. A very effective one at that. Each person has their own method of getting the edge off. Doing that little bit of physical activity can help clear your mind. <\/p>
Not only stress relief but working out, can help early adults set some organization into their lives. Having the drive to allot a certain amount of time regularly to a daily task can help mature a sense of structure. To stick to a task in order to achieve long-run benefits will surely help people become more patient and understanding, rather than look for instant results. <\/p>
Setting a routine which accommodates physical activity on the daily right at this critical point of time in your life will set a good start to what could be a very long lasting youth. Working out should in no way affect your studies either. It infact can help you plan things out a bit ahead of time. Sometimes doing a little less can be more fruitful. So go hit the gym, or a run, or just do yoga, just keep your body alive instead of letting it go limp. Don\u2019t look for immediate results, work hard, eat clean, sleep right and watch the new season of Billions because Paul Giamatti and Damian Lewis are a treat. <\/p>"}]
Hard and industrious work is necessary to achieve our goals in life.<\/p>
But concentration on work alone with no recreation tends to make a person dull and unsociable.<\/p>
The mind\u2019s constitution is such that it can work for a long time.<\/p>
But at the same time, proper relaxation is absolutely necessary to keep it from getting overtaxed. An overtaxed mind loses all social spirit making the personality dull.<\/p>
Often children are made to study their lessons continuously so as to get good results in examinations. But this rather tends to make a child just a bookworm with no social abilities.<\/p>
Furthermore, a relaxed mind is a rejuvenated one. It retrieves all its capacities to absorb knowledge after proper recreation. Recreation revitalizes the mind\u2019s inborn abilities. That is why we stress extracurricular activities in school routine.<\/p>
The proverb \u201call work and no play makes Jack a dull boy\u201d highlights the importance of activities of recreation, play, rest, leisure, etc. in our lives.<\/p>

People often say this cliche without thinking different aspects of the term \u2018work\u2019 which leads to dullness. Basically, they relate work with a student who sticks to his books or an employee who is hyper-focused just on his\/her projects. I am arguing here the concept of the word \u2018WORK\u2019, which cannot always lead to dullness.<\/p>
What will you say to a cricketer whose work is only to play cricket? What will you say to a traffic constable whose work is only to look after traffic? What will you say to a marketing manager who works constantly in order to achieve his targets on time? Will they become dull if they keep on working? My answer is NO they won\u2019t become dull but by doing their work but they will become experts who will guide their sector\/ domicile by the lights of their knowledge which they will accrue in this process.<\/p>
<\/p>
All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy, <\/p>
All play and no work makes Jack a mere toy.\n <\/p>
I argue that playing makes one physically strong and fit and mentally morale and competitive. It helps to reduce stress and cope with our problems. Or else a person becomes mentally weak and unable to manage with lifetime problems. They become distressed in case of any minute failures and indulge in unwanted actions and ill-feelings.<\/p>

The following lines clearly support the argument made by the above proverb & suggest game-based learning as a creative alternative which can be lucratively implemented in order to avoid the side effects of boring learning process.<\/p>
\u201cTell me, and I\u2019ll forget. Show me, and I may remember. Involve me, and I\u2019ll understand.\u201d<\/p>
This is exactly what game-based learning or digital game-based learning does. It involves, motivates, and challenges. It has the capability of making even dull and serious trainings interactive and fun.<\/p>
Anything fun is not necessarily frivolous. In fact, people learn and remember more when they are relaxed. There are companies that use game\/simulation based courses for soft skills, business and policy, social cause (such as sexual harassment), product, medical, aviation, and legal training.<\/p>
Games are not just for kids. Everyone needs to relax once in a while.<\/p>

Games are integral part of human development (i.e. from the ages) which under any circumstances shouldn\u2019t be averted or diverted from the daily schedule.

Group Discussions are invariably a part of selection process of many top colleges in India and many MNCs. It is a test for a candidate's interpersonal skills and group dynamics, unfortunately many candidates are eliminated in this round not because they lack the required potential but are ignorant of simple and basic rules one needs to religiously obey to nail a group discussion. So here is quick look at what can get you into your dream college or job. <\/p>"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1487584022996","data":"
1. Preparation: <\/b><\/p>
After giving the topic for group discussion, you will have around 3 minutes time to prepare which is of crucial importance for every one. This is the time when you generate ideas for the given topic. Make sure you write down points in such a way that you can elaborate on a point looking at a keyword, remember do not read out from the paper, keep it as natural as possible. You would be given most points for the content.<\/p>"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1487585257917","data":"
2. Analyse the topic: <\/b><\/p>
Topics given to you could be opinion based, fact based or abstract topics. Opinion based topics are easier because all you have to do is justify your stand and when it come to fact based, be careful of the figures and facts that you pitch. There is no dearth of points when it comes to these two kind of topics. 'Green is better than blue' or 'Pigs can fly' - topics like these are called abstract topics where you need to relate things and generate ideas. Green you could relate to forest cover and blue to marine life and further establish a relevance as to why it is more important to protect the green cover than water. There is no boundary for your imagination here but make sure you do not fail to establish a relevance and make sensible points. <\/p>"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1487584052821","data":"
3. Initiate the GD: <\/b><\/p>
The person who initiates the group discussion has the maximum advantage because for around 20 seconds no one will intervene and you would have the opportunity to give a lead in the discussion and make maximum points. But remember do not give out all the points in the beginning and stay silent for the rest 10 minutes, continue to make interventions. <\/p>"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1487584090550","data":"
4. Be attentive and spontaneous: <\/b><\/p>
Simply putting down your points on paper and waiting for a chance to speak, not being attentive to what others have tell - is of no good. Be attentive and respond, either counter their point or build up on the point, be spontaneous and quick enough to pull it off from other interesting points, this would fetch you more points than you would otherwise by pitching in your own ideas or opinions. <\/p>"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1487584131452","data":"
5. Do not make many interventions: <\/b><\/p>
On an average making five to seven interventions is healthy and more than seven would fetch you a negative impression because you would be labelled as someone who talks more. Be generous and let others speak, you gain points for your group behavior because a group discussion is different from a debate, the primary purpose is not to prove your point but reach a sensible and impactful conclusion. <\/p>"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1487584165737","data":"
6. Be assertive not arrogant: <\/b><\/p>
There is a very thin line between being arrogant and being assertive in a group discussion. It is important to be confident and loud when you speak but when you try to cut other people abruptly, point out their mistakes, humiliate someone, you lose points there. Your tone or voice should be loud and clear but do not lose your calm. Don't get inspired by Arnab Goswami. <\/p>"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1487584260897","data":"
7. Body language: <\/b><\/p>
Maintaining eye contact with every one is very important, remember it is a group discussion. Your body language will also fetch you points, use gestures while you speak but be careful when you use pens, make sure you do not point at a specific person, you have to address the entire group. <\/p>"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1487584273297","data":"
8. Speak clearly: <\/b> <\/p>
In a group discussion it is important to be loud and clear so that the panel or the moderator can clearly listen to your points. People will try to cut you off in a group discussion but keep trying to intervene do not just give up, the moderator will at least observe that you were trying to actively participate. That is where you perseverance is put to test. <\/p>"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1487584315068","data":"
9. Let others speak: <\/b><\/p>
In a GD you have to let others speak as well. You have to be compassionate and generous and let others put forward there points as well. But it is also important to make sure you are not into social service; don't let everyone cut you off while you speak and do not be anyone's spokesperson in the discussion. <\/p>"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1487584329057","data":"
10. Give the discussion a direction: <\/b><\/p>
Specially when you initiate the GD, the responsibility is on you to give the discussion a right path. Many times ideas and points get digressive, then one has to try to channelize the discussion to reach a meaningful conclusion. <\/p>"}]
When the first rays of the morning sun hit my face, <\/p>
You want me to wake up and be ahead in the race.<\/p>
Poor you! Trying so hard to douse me with water<\/p>
And trying to send me to the everyday slaughter.<\/p>
You seem na\u00efve sometimes,<\/p>
Yet so mature when giving me advice for a lifetime.<\/p>
You pester me to go for that morning jog,<\/p>

Move about or under your burgeoning weight you\u2019ll moan!<\/p>
Yet, an extra dollop of ice cream I find in my bowl<\/p>
Even if without a reason I have a scowl.<\/p>
Who will marry such a girl, you cry?<\/p>
Oh wait, do you have a \u2018ahem\u2019 boyfriend? You try to pry!<\/p>
When I get sick, you have my phone to blame<\/p>
When I flunk, my phone is to blame<\/p>
When I get depressed, my phone is to blame<\/p>
With such escalating taunts,My phone may soon go red with shame.<\/p>
You spend sleepless nights praying that I ace the class<\/p>
And when I don\u2019t, you motivate me by saying, \u2018this too shall pass\u2019.<\/p>
You cater to my needs by relegating yours to the background<\/p>
But when I watch k dramas Instead of those tutorials on JAVA,<\/p>
On me you will initiate a crackdown.<\/p>
You toil so hard to teach me values<\/p>
So that I can be a person of good use.<\/p>
My way of cussing you shun,<\/p>
And as always, you remark- oh hon!<\/p>
Who will marry such a one?<\/p>
Also, you help me shape my career<\/p>
While trying so hard that I do not get arrear.<\/p>
In a family of doctorates, I seem to be the black sheep<\/p>
But thankfully, you have never contemplated dumping me in a garbage heap.<\/p>
Mother oh mother, with your magnitude of love,<\/p>
I fly up, up and above.<\/p>"}]
Big Yellow Door or BYD as it is popularly known is literally a quirky crooked yellow door that leads you into this caf\u00e9 that smells deliciously of herbs and warm coffee. This asymmetrical yellow door has become the statement landmark of the Satya Niketan area and with its warm interiors (and great food, ofcourse) the caf\u00e9 is a perfect place for a Saturday brunch or an evening date.\nAs soon as you enter, you\u2019re welcomed by this warm fuzzy feeling of the dimly lit place. Fairy lights and lanterns complement the subdued interiors.<\/p>
There\u2019s low comfortable seating area with the prettiest of cushions along with the classic caf\u00e9 seating with small wooden top tables and rustic green chairs.\nThe country interiors are complemented by stone walls as partitions with a signature wall at the end adding a dash of color and an edge.<\/p>
Beautiful painted pebbles bestrew the end wall along with old books and woodwork giving the entire place a fun vibe and color. \nA pale wall decorated with simple but beautiful graffiti of a windowpane, is like a perfect corner for pictures with beautiful overhead lighting and the graffiti in the background. The flowers hanging at every little distance along with lanterns from the ceiling give the place an elegant look and fresh aura.\nDecorated with beautiful and simplistic DIY accessories like paper lamps and lanterns, the caf\u00e9 emanates homely vibes (which is complemented by the delicious homecooked style food!) With the wooden ceiling, stone walls and dim and peaceful lights, Big Yellow Door can totally pass off as a caf\u00e9 located at some peaceful hillside rather than the hustle bustle of the crowded city. \nBig yellow door is the caf\u00e9 if you want to take a break from the noisy city and have a meal with good music (They\u2019ve a great playlist!) and a tranquil and beautifully done place.\n<\/p>
(My little piece of advice - Anyone at Delhi must check this place out for some delicious baked mac and cheese!)<\/p>"}]

Milind Soman is 51 years old, and that fact shocks us every time we hear it. Born to a Marathi family in Glasgow, Scotland, Soman comes from a long line of accomplished doctors and scientists, and he himself has a diploma in Electrical Engineering. However, we today know him as a fitness icon and a model par excellence, who to this day at his age keeps inspiring people to take up fitness lifestyle and make people swoon. Here's some things every student should know about him. <\/p>
1. He chased his dream.<\/b><\/p>
Moving to India at a tender age of 7 with his family and living in Dadar is a sensory overload for someone used to living in a country like Scotland, but Soman pulled through. His family, grandparents who were all doctors (yes all 4 of them), father who was a nuclear scientist and mother who was a professor in a reputed college, all were examples of academic excellence, and Soman himself went on to get his diploma in Electrical Engineering. But he knew that this is not what he wanted to do, and so, he became a model in 1988.<\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1487582886402","data":"58aab78699487"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1487583069649","data":"

Way back in 1995, Doordarshan aired the first English language show 'A Mouthful of Sky' and went on to become part of India's first Sci-Fi show, Captain Vyom, a role most of the early 90s kids remember him for. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1487583551063","data":"58aaba2d79969"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1487583739636","data":"
3. He committed himself to drastic lifestyle changes for getting fit. <\/b><\/p>
Milind Soman used to smoke quite extensively, a habit that could have taken drastic effects on his health. But then he quit the habit, got around to getting his fitness game on, completely quit sugars from his diet and the result today is for all to see! <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1487584436542","data":"58aabcfd0c0f4"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1487584462047","data":"
4. He's the brand ambassador for Pinkathon <\/b><\/p>
Following the encouragement he received from his mother as a child to stay fit, he strongly believes that India will adapt a culture of fitness only when women start doing it. A woman will lead their families into staying fit, and adopting a fit lifestyle. As of now, only 10% women in India participate in walks, runs and marathons. With Pinkathon, a women only event, he hopes to change that. <\/p> "},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1487584686657","data":"58aabde8a26e4"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1487584695923","data":"
5. He does it all barefoot <\/b><\/p>
You read that right, Milind Soman is so hardcore, he does every run, marathon, triathalon and even the ultra man challenge, completely barefoot. Soman says that running barefoot becomes like driving cars, you don't look at every car on the road once you master it. Barefoot, he beat the Ultraman challenge, which is so harsh it'll make your head whirl. Day one involves 10 km of swimming and 142 km of cycling, day 2 is 276 km of cycling and day 3 is an 84-kilometer run! Just reading the details is exhausting us! <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1487585251419","data":"58aac0319a0bc"}]
*Student is busily checking something on a cellphone in a corridor in college*<\/p>
*Faculty member walks by*<\/p>
*Student gets a rush of adrenalin and hides the phone*<\/p>
If you can relate to this, then we're sure you're in one of the many engineering colleges in the city and the fact that mobile phones are not allowed in colleges, is well known and much debated upon. Though most colleges don't adhere to the rule strictly and most faculty members turn a blind eye towards students using their mobile phones on campus, there are some colleges which stick to this rule firmly and even go to the extent of confiscating students' phones. There were also instances when the state government itself, decided to impose a ban on mobile phones in educational institutions.<\/p>
But what about the fact that most students who study in engineering colleges are somehow linked to app development and need mobile phones to work on? And what about the fact that most colleges are in far flung places outside the city and students actually need to have some mode of communication on them? Besides these necessities, mobiles now play a crucial role in students' lives as most of the class related info is shared on whatsapp groups and students save lessons and notes on mobiles. <\/p>
Having previously done a similar story wherein I spoke to several students after their phones were confiscated in colleges, most students lamented about the fact that they had to build apps and attend app building workshops in colleges and yet, they couldn't bring phones to colleges. They also lamented about the fact that some members of the faculty who confiscated their phones, didn't respect their privacy and went through their contacts, texts and galleries. <\/p>
But the colleges themselves had another angle to talk about. Considering the number of MMS scandals, exam-cheating scandals, etc that happened because students had phones on campuses; not to mention the countless number of times when students use phones in class, the colleges feel imposing a ban on the usage of phones in college is a right thing.<\/p>
What I feel is that the onus lies on the students' sense of discipline when it comes to having a cellphone with them in college. I will not claim to have been the perfect student when I was in college, I took a phone to college and in fact, I had a phone right from when I was in my 10th; but I can firmly say with conviction that I had the basic sense to not use it while a class was going on or some such. Like that cliched line - with great power comes great responsibilty, <\/i>students should have the basic sense to not use phones in classes and also to not perform any unwarranted acts with it.<\/p>
It's the same with any other aspect of college life, over which rules are imposed upon. There are several colleges (though the comparable number is low) which have an open-gate system and several colleges that once had an open-gate system and many colleges (this number being the maximum), with a closed gate system. It's usually the top colleges like IITs and other central universities that have a complete open-gate system because the college management completely relies on the students' sense of responsibility and discipline. The colleges that once had an open-gate system changed and imposed rules after students went out and got into accidents and things like that.<\/p>
So in my opinion, if students show a sense of responsibility, the colleges themselves will stop imposing such rules.<\/p>"}]
