The Dhoom of Politics

The Dhoom of Politics 

Exorbitant amounts of money, much ado about nothing, and a sorry end result: this sums up the Indian Cinema Industry and the Indian government, all in one. A couple of weeks ago, I made the fatal mistake of going for “Dhoom 3: Back in Action” with a few of my friends.

Some find that 'once a teacher, always a teacher', makes them quite staid and even brings about a feeling of isolation. The teacher becomes 'victims of thyself', as they believe their destiny is to be stuck in the profession alone.
