Learnings From Liverpool

The Big Hope 2, Young Leaders Congress, held at Liverpool Hope University in Liverpool, United Kingdom was an exceptional event. This event was an extension of the first Big Hope event held a decade ago. This event basically comprised of various activities, lectures, discussion forums, and learning tracks designed for each participant according to their interests. Participants were given end number of themes to choose from. Some of them were Environment & Technology, Migration, Faith, Birth Project, Women in Leadership, Education, Sports, Art & Culture, Community, Business, Health & Well-being, Disability Gains, Peace & Youth Engagement and International Learning Experiences.

For Discussion Forum my topic of choice was Environment & Technology from which I gathered some very creative and ingenious Ideas. There were engineers and managers from automobile Industry conversing and sharing with us some very authentic ways to create balance between technology and environment.

My topic of choice for my personal learning track was ‘Exploring Conservation’. I am glad I chose this topic because besides my interest for it, I also got to take field trips in nearby parks and docks which helped me make my study all the more interesting.

For this learning track, we were given a task to carefully analyse the environment and come up with the opinion of whether or not should there be a visitor’s centre built and whatever our outcome opinion was, it was displayed in the form of posters in the exhibition area.

My overall experience of this Liverpool trip was simply wonderful. It was truly once in a lifetime experience. Meeting new people from all over the world really widens your ideas and concepts about different things. This BIG HOPE 2 event has certainly provided a big hope for a better world to live in through engaging and enlightening the youth of today, preparing to make them better leaders for tomorrow.

I cannot thank enough to Christ (Deemed to be University) for this amazing opportunity. I will forever be thankful to Dr. Father Jose cc, Dr. Madhumati Deshpande and the entire faculty of International Studies and History Department for providing us with such wonderful opportunities.

The "South" took over the Citadel-- An Analysis of the rising South Indian Film Industry | Student Works

The South Indian film industry has been in a vehement uproar over the last five to six years. The trend and the taste of the audience have turned the tables of focus towards South Indian movie industry, only further solidified by the Golden Globes’ win bagged by RRR’s music director MM Keeravani, as well as their Oscars’ nomination for Best Foreign Film. Sequels and prequels about 'smugglers' (Rockybhai and Pushpa) have taken over the game into what we cinematically call the "next level." Since R. Rajamouli and his vision of filmmaking which he calls 'larger than life’ films, fictitious characterizations are placed over and above gravity. His exuberance has paid off well at the box office, and his filmography proves the same. Emotional undertones in diverse stories like Eega aimed for the viewers' hearts straight in the bull's eye. Baahubali, RRR , and Pushpa broke the box office records, and the otherwise stereotypical advantages of Bollywood put the
