“Learning can be done in an infinite number of ways” --- I’m pretty much sure that you are going to agree with me on this assertion. Each and every phase of our life, every action teaches us something. So, on that very basis, today I’m sharing my learning from the Indian-Crime-Dramatic-Suspense-Thriller show - ‘SACRED GAMES – Season 1’. The show has already become a very huge hit among the global audience. The way it is portrayed on the small screen of Netflix, the way characters have played their role is brilliant. They all have justified their skills and task of entertaining us to the fullest.

The show is based on the novel of the same name published in 2006 by Vikram Chandra. The whole season 1 is divided into 8 episodes of approx. 50-55 minutes each. It is directed by Anurag Kashyap and Vikramaditya Motwane and it is produced under the banner of Phantom Films.

It all started when Sartaj Singh (Saif Ali Khan) receives an anonymous call from the Gangster, Ganesh Gaitonde (Nawazuddin Siddiqui) who always remains filled with a fiery storm, informing Sartaj about the imminent doom at Mumbai in 25 days and tells him to save the city from this doom. Amidst the chaos, trappings of the corrupt underworld are revealed by the police officer Sartaj Singh and in the background; it showcases the rise of the Ganesh Gaitonde in the Mumbai’s Underworld.

Amidst all the chaotic scenes, the characters enacted by everyone gave valuable life lessons also that I have learned by watching this crime thriller. I felt like sharing them with all of you.

So, let me impart you the life lessons from Sacred Games that you also can apply in order to improve the quality of your life-
  1. “If you know that you can do it on your own, go and do it. Never ask for the referral, endorsement or help” ---  Sartaj always knows right from the word go that he can handle and investigate on the case without the backing of his colleagues and his boss who always attempted to discourage him by showing that he is not worthy enough. In the end, he proved everyone wrong and also manages to win the confidence and the support of his same boss and colleagues.
  2. “If you want to achieve anything in life, develop the guts to do anything and everything to achieve it” --- Gaitonde got fall in love with the Kukkoo when he first saw her, but Kukkoo was with the other gang leaders. Gaitonde was a normal man back then, but he challenged the leader that he will crush him and want Kukkoo as the prize. He managed to beat him by hook and crook and won the Kukkoo and her love.
  3. "Be Relentless, Be Restless, Be a Leader” --- Sacred Games showcase a story of a normal guy who saw the most difficult times in his life right from his childhood. Gaitonde builds his own empire of a gangster in Mumbai all on his own and leads his troops with full passion. Each and every step he took was to achieve his goal of ruling the Mumbai one day. He achieved it superbly…!!!
  4. “Behind every successful man, there is a woman” --- You and I have heard this statement 100 of times in our lives, but personally I feel like that this show proves this statement right. 1st Kukkoo (Girlfriend of Gaitonde) and then Subhadra (Wife of Gaitonde), both have played a really important part in firing the fire of achieving success in Gaitonde. 
  5. “Never forgot the sacrifice made by the others for you, Pay off…” --- Gaitonde chose Sartaj as his messenger and main person to block up the doomsday. He informed him only and no one else. Sartaj didn’t even know him. Gaitonde chose him because it was Sartaj’s father who helped Gaitonde in the Jail when he got arrested and thrown behind the steel bars. Sartaj’s father used to provide him the food to eat in the prison without the fear of losing his own job. Hence, in order to pay off, Gaitonde chooses Sartaj over the others. 
  6. “Each and everything in this world teaches you something, just change the way you look at the things” --- This is the best lesson among all that I have learned after watching this amazing show. We all used to avert the negative circumstances and constantly attempt to impose the reason for our own failures on others. If you observe, then you’ll find that there is nothing in this world which doesn’t teach you anything.

“If you are not learning, you are not living”.

This is my insight from this amazing show called Sacred Games. I believe that this is a must watch, merely only for the age group of 18 and above.

I am sure that #ThisWillMakeYouThink.

SAHIL JAIN --- A So-Called Writer in the Making

The next 1000 words are going to describe the fundamentals of a writer in a nutshell, being written by a person who is trying to become a full-time writer one day, i.e. ' Me '. I am the Commander of these words and King of this real story I am going to end this shit that I have started. The best thing about being a So-Called writer, is that in real life, I have very little to say. After writing 13 articles for my own channel, the channel on which you are reading this one and the other 2 articles written for Ghumakkad TV, I believe that the name by which I am marketing them is worth it… THIS WILL MAKE YOU THINK . After coming into a full-time job of a Sales Manager for an NBFC in New Delhi, India, the essential time between the work and the passion became very hard to combine. Moreover, I don’t really like my job and I’m saying this with the highest level of confidence that I do not belong there. Sometimes I even feel that I’m wasting my time over there....

A Porn in a Day, Keeps the Doctor Away...!!!

It is hidden from no one that porn is banned in many of the countries and India also recently joined the prestigious list. Most of us consider watching pornographic content or sexual content as a matter of shame and disgrace. It is ugly. And yes, we do not wish to divvy up this thing openly. Truly speaking, I personally know around 10-15 persons who are addicted to watching pornography and masturbation, and they also will be reading this one for sure. Researches have shown that getting exposed to it continuously can create major issues with the mind . Thinking skills, memorizing skills, etc. gets hampers, and many more negatives are there for sure. Some are aware, some aren’t. Some in the aware category still watch the content continuously as it acts as a stress buster for them (15 Minutes – Din ka Sukh….!!!!). We all love to spend time on the internet. Pornography is the most searched content over the internet. Studies have also shown that a husband used to access...

Guests and Relatives --- Fucked-Up Souls…!!!

You must have heard about a very renowned statement --- “Atithi Devo Bhav” --- Guest is Like a God so treat him like a God . And there is no denying that this practice is being followed blindly and whole-heartedly all around the world, but in India, it is practiced with more intensity, higher interest, high caliber, and a much higher passion. Welcome to Incredible India, the country where a guest is treated like a God. Of course , we are the ones who have set the benchmarks in this field. We love guests… Isn’t it…??? They bring fun and gossips to our 1 & 2 BHKs. If I talk particularly about my family, there you will find that we also are following the crowd and we love to do so. Except Me…!!! I all together go opposite to the flow, and I’m very much sure about this that there are plenty of head counts who are having the same perspective as mine after reading this one further. This one is especially for them, for safeguarding their interest as I have take...

Doctors – Life-Savers or Savings Destroyers…???

Doctor as a profession requires no introduction as they lie everywhere on this planet and are having their presence in both the genders working towards the same goal of saving someone’s life and providing that person a ray of hope. Being a doctor can be a matter of pride for anyone. We should not just call this activity as a mere profession rather should call it a 'Gift of God '.    In the past, many incidents related to health hazards have occurred where doctors had played a very crucial role in controlling things . The latest incident that I remember is EBOLA VIRUS. The incident has taken the world by storm and has taken up the lives of many, but the way doctors have taken care of this virus was exceptional. These doctors get honored with the prestigious award of Time’s Person of the Year.  Proud moment…!!!    Isn’t it…??? The medical science has evolved into manifolds in the past decade or so and inventions are kept on happening in t...
