TRUE LOVE AND SUSPICION

Neha, a girl with big dreams of having an exciting life after marriage, teaching psychology. Dr Jayesh, Neha's husband is a serious and dedicated gynaecologist with a good reputation. Both loved each other and adjusted to each other's requirements. Neha wanted a child soon after getting married. But Jayesh was particular about her studies and career. Despite such a close bond Neha is standing the court holding divorce papers. She has divorced Jayesh.

Why Neha divorced Jayesh?

Do we give up on relationships too soon?

Is it always what it looks like?

VASTU SHASTRA

Saurabh, a chartered accountant from a small town working in an Man in Mumbai. Religious and superstitious by nature. He moves to Mumbai with his wife Shalini and his eight year old son Rahul, after some time they plan to move in to their new home. Before moving in Saurabh makes an appointment with a vastu expert. The vastu expert starts to talk about positive and negative energies flowing around each corner of the house, when suddenly curious and young Rahul interrupts. " How does one calculate the enormous amount of energy of the Sun?" Unable to answer even one of his questions the expert is embarrassed.

Why do we blindly believes in remedies where the basis of these practices cannot be determined?
