BOOK REVIEW: SOMETIMES IT HAPPENS BY KARAN SHARMA

-
Title: Sometimes it happens
Author: Karan Sharma
Genre: Romance, fiction
Pages: 167


This book is about Gautam, the main lead, Rohit, his best friend and Roshni, Gautam's boss and love interest. The twist in the story is that Roshni is 12 years senior to Gautam (she is his boss after all) and Gautam is head over heels in love with her.
When Gautam professes his love to his best friend Rohit, he is ridiculed and put across a series of tough situations... Which are very true and practical. The society doesn't accept such inequal relationships and even if they don't care about the folk lore, they themselves would have a tough time in dealing with the stark differences.
After weighing the pros and cons, Gautam develops cold feet towards his relationship and leaves for Singapore for a year for work, leaving Roshni high and dry.
However the love story does not end here. He develops feelings towards his pretty colleague Payal (who always had a soft corner for her) while working together in Singapore. But whenever he comes close to Payal, all he can think of is Roshni. Then he realizes that Roshni is his true love and he flies back to India to declare his love.
Everything goes smooth and they decide to get married. However the carefree lifestyle that Gautam drags Roshni into takes a toll on her health and she falls sick right before the wedding. She realizes that she's too old to date a 25 year old, leave alone marry. They don't even have any common interests. Roshni then decides to call off the wedding.
Will this relationship end for good? Or should they give it a try? Read this book to know! It's a very engaging read indeed.

Effect of COVID 19 on edible oil industry and Palm oil

  The Corona pandemic has caused a havoc on the global economy. Some countries have been more affected than others. I however would like to focus on the effect of the pandemic on the edible oil industry and Malaysian Palm oil especially. Last week I attended a webinar hosted by the  Malaysian Palm Oil Council with Dr Bhavna Shah, country representative of India/Sri Lanka as the speaker and what she said about the palm oil industry right now is really food for thought. How has COVID 19 affected the edible oil industry?  The pandemic caused shutting down of restaurants and catering businesses and hence a drastic reduction in the  import of edible oils. People have reduced eating outside to a very large extent and also takeaway orders have declined. This situation was particularly grave during the lockdown period. The production of cooking oil comes under Essential goods services but the production of containers isn't. Labours migrated back to their villages from the cities in huge nu

SCHIPHOL AIRPORT TO AMSTERDAM How to reach to the city center from Airport is always a big question while travelling. By far car/taxi is the easiest and most convenient form. But it’s costly, if you are travelling solo or as a couple. There is no harm to save few bugs but yes, comfort is always a priority. Public transport in Amsterdam is very convenient, fast and comfortable.   Shciphol is world’s 14 th largest airport situated 22 Km south of Amsterdam city center. It’s well connected to the city center and nearby places by bus train and taxi. By taxi : The maximum start price of taxi car is near about 2.83 euro, with travel rate of 2.08 euro per km and travel time cost 0.34 euro per minute. So expect a cost between 45 Euros to 60 Euros from shciphol airport to the city center, depending on your location. You can need taxi especially at late night, when the trams stop functioning. The taxi stand is located just outside of airport arrival hal

A day in my life in Bewakoof.com Joggers and T-shirt

Just because I travel so much, most of the people who don't know me feel that my life is easy. But what they don't understand is that in order to arrange money for travelling, I work freaking hard. I can't even take off on Sundays. However I can wear comfortable casuals on weekends thankfully. Recently I came across Bewakoof.com and really liked their wide range of casuals. I chose a cool pair of denim jeans and a cobalt blue T-shirt . The T shirt spoke my mind: Gotta Move On! Usually my Sundays start very early...I know I don't have the privilege to sleep in. I play cricket and am part of the Delhi Medical Association cricket team. Our matches are held every Sunday, at seven in the morning. So this Sunday too I left at six in the morning to play. After my cricket match, I had to take rounds in my hospital. That took around 3 hours and got free at 5 in the evening. But that was not all. I, being the official Orthopedician of the Delhi Dynamos Team in the Ind
