Sustainability of Youtubers as a Life Long Profession: Focus on Travel Vloggers, Moto Vloggers

 Youtubing has now become a formal profession and somewhat respected too because of the quick cash part possibly. I dont have any personal experience how much quick cash and how sustainable is it as a "career". I am sometimes quite appalled to see videos where women bathing is part of youtube and for obvious reasons garner high views, may not be subscriptions. The aforesaid example is a very extreme end of the scale, I believe. However, I am very much intrigued by travel vloggers and Moto vloggers which is a high investment work compared to shooting inside your home making funny memes or even shooting your own bathing videos and posting them on youtube as life vlogs. The first travel vlogger I started following was Mr. Varun Vagish / Mountain trekker channel. Although initially I didnt learn about his personal life or profession but he carried a sophisticated aura of an educated soft spoken person with deep insight and thought fullness in his travel approach. This is possibly

2022 Movie Review: Rocketry The Nambi Effect

 I saw the movie in its original language 2 days back on amazon prime. The movie wonderfully depicted the work life and contribution and suffering Nambi Narayan faced socially, career-wise, family life and criminal proceedings. The movie scores very low in woke score. It doesnt insult Hindu customs and traditions in any way. It also highlights patriotism, self respect of an educated man and his genius in moving India from solid state fuel to liquid fuel. Building/assembling knocked down unit of 2 Russian cryogenic engines without any user manual and guidance. The movie starts with Sanskrit shloka and in the movie it has been shown that Nambi Narayan is both science minded and traditional in terms of practicing Hindu customs, traditional dresses. Much of the story is revealed in the form of an interview which Mr. Nambi Narayan is giving in a TV show. Towards the end the character of Nambi Narayan played by ace actor Madhavan transforms into actual Nambi Narayan who does a guest appearan

Review of Youtube Documentary silence of Swastik - The Biggest Betrayal of 20th century

I had the opportunity to tour cambodia and visit ankor Wat Temple complex, possibly the largest Hindu temple complex in the world in 2019. There I have often come across wrong interpretation of Hinduism. The wrong interpretations were there in Museums, delivered by tourist guides,etc. But most of these, I now realise was from ignorance, false narrative of western authors and historians on their colonies. I was also under the influence of the fact that the Swastik symbol was taken up by Adolf Hitler and when he came to power swastika became a notorious symbol. Even by European colleagues in my last company know that swastika was a Hindu symbol and it didnt mean that harmful to us Hindus as it was for Hitler. However, during all these times from when I 1st read about ww2 in class 7 until today, thanks to our education system. It never occurred to my or neither any teacher made me think:- 1) why a christian man - Adolf Hitler who was born in a village to a very low level middle class pare

A Bengali's Review of Marathi Movie Jeevan Sandhya

 Hello Readers! I have watched this movie only last week sunday. I liked the trailer very much. I dont know marathi so I was watching it with english subtitles. I also want to make a declaration in the very beginning that I have watched movies of 22 nations due to which the plot most often than not becomes "somewhat" obvious which was also is the case for this movie and also the cause of my liking for this movie. The movie opens with a scene where the senior citizen hero emerges out of a car and enters a law firm. He is followed by his wife. Their conversation confuses and sparks the curiosity of the law office receptionist who enquires about their reason for arrival to the law firm. Now the 1st part of the movie starts with the narration by the hero - Jivan abhyankar how he met his new wife after his 1st wife's death and the relaitionship developed into a love marriage. It also showed how negatively the son's and daughters of this aged couple reacted when they heard

Did 34 years of Communist Government ruin the Bengali Businesses and local Business mindset in West Bengal?

It is often said now days among Bengalees that we are not business material, we are born to work in offices. At maximum, we are good at doing small businesses. We see that most of the businesses in Kolkata, our capital city is dominated by non-Bengalees. If you remember there were Bengalees as film producers in Bollywood not so long ago and now even the local Bengali film and television industry is financed by companies whose owners are non-Bengalees. It makes me wonder that did 34 years of continuous communist presence at government level and in the psyche of the Bengalee community in West Bengal and Tripura pushed the progressive and not so risk averse Bengalee community running after government jobs and salaried positions? lets dive into the time... Let's start by listing out Bengali producers in post Independence and try to chronologically order the reduction and disappearance from the horizon and see if a pattern appears over a period of time:- Hiralal Sen - Creative year ext

A Bengali traveller's Review: 9 day Cambodia Trip From Kolkata India

Initially, I planned entry from Siam reap and exit through pnom Penh(capital). However, flight fare dictated us to start from pnom Penh first and exit from Siam reap. Cleartrip.com - Hotel booking cancellation confusion one fine sunday morning,1 month before the trip start date, I received call from cleartrip support stating that my Pnom Penh Hotel booking has been cancelled by the Hotel. In order to avoid these types of issues, I had already contacted the Hotel much before the call to book pickup and use this moment to reconfirm my booking, which both Hotels from Siam Reap and pnom Penh did. Now! this sudden call confused and scared me. I asked the support lady to contact the Hotel and confirm me back as I had already been in contact with them.She called back after sometime stating that yes all my hotel bookings are confirmed. Airlines(forward journey)- Kolkata to Singapore on Singapore airlines, followed by 9 hours layover. It was a midnight flight. New experience! Breakin
