Silli-Chilli-Logo.jpg
A comedy of Errors,That turned out to be a tragedy in the end.
As usual,Like everyday I ordered lunch at around 12:30.
And Silli Chilli  our new discovery over the months,Was our favourite Chinese place until yesterday 31st August 2017.
The order arrived around 13:30. And I Had kept staring at the receipt.As I was doubtful about it then itself.
When,We sat for lunch.
It was Garlic Gravy.
To my surprise,I wondered where is the Veg Garlic Rice.
So,I phoned the restaurant and complained.
I don’t know,How this order came.
But,This wasn’t what I ordered.
My colleague and I clearly remember what we ordered.
To sort things out,I admitted.It Could be mine.But,That was just the beginning.
Nikhil From Silli Chilli.Said he would send a wok of the day.And minutes later arrived.
But Chicken wok.
Being Ganpati.The colleague I was sharing with was eating only Vegetarian food.
So,I phoned again and complained again.
He said,He would immediately send me the paneer
I asked the delivery man,How long it would take as it was 14:30now.
He is said about 15-20 minutes.
At 15:00 I phoned again,The guy who I was speaking until now,Was no longer available.So I was in conversation with vishal or Zeeshan….I hardly cared who I spoke to now.Just wanted Food.
He is said ORDER IS CANCELLED.
Now I was getting furious,So I told him to send Rice asap.He said ok.It would take time,How long? By about 16:00 Hrs…I fumed…Another 45 minutes.Told Him I would not be paying for this order and all.
He said,Sir that won’t be possible.
I could give you a compliment service of 1 portion of Chocolate mouse.
I request could you make it 2.
She said,Ok.
15:45.Calls me again 30 minutes later after,I spoke to him.
Can only give you one Chocolate mousse
I was now loosing my patience and told him.It’s not about the mousse
But about the service.
It’s 16:00 I phoned again… I am not going to be paying for anything at all.
Again he started to argue…He phoned the delivery man and updated him…Not to take any money.
16:20-16:30 Hours…Food finally arrives.The order is wrong again. 
And no complimentary mousse too.
Pathetic…Silli Chilli Never AGAIN

Atomic Blonde-Movie Review!!


Atomic Blonde from the director of Deadpool & John Wick David Leitch You can only expect actions at it’s best.And it doesn’t disappoint with,  Atomic Blonde being us sneak peak what it would be like For a Blonde to be like Blonde. In The first few minutes itself you are interested in knowing about,And you realise how different is it from others.

A story of the most elite Spy MI 6 Lorraine Broughton,who’s willing to give it all and redeem the mission she has been assigned.

The story is from the point of view of  the protagonist narrating the story of her mission.With spray effect filter in the edits,made it appealing.

The beginning,Giving out a word of caution this is not that story of 1989 November When the Berlin Wall was about to fall 

The story being inspired from a Novel Graphic The coldest City written by Anthony Johnston A British Comic writer.Makes total sense for the spray effect.

The Blonde is played by charlize Theron .An actress who has been part of thriller like Mad Max fury,Fast and Furious 8 and the Italian Job.

Antagonist played by James McAvoy has played the most challenging role till date of 23 personalities in a single movie the split.A neatly done,Action movie.With the Mystery remaining…

Self Confidence!!! 


Confidence-The feeling of having faith in something.The state of feeling certain.

How important is it really? Do you really care? 

Not just with analysing,Evaluating decisions generally. 

But even with styling yourself with the right accessories and wearing the right outfit for occasions.Or for that matter experimenting with something totally not part of your personality.

And making an appearance,During the experimental phase.You will be mocked,You will be the highlight of the occasion and topic of conversation 

But,If you are confident about,Your appearance rather than nervous about it.

You won’t bother.And you soon will be seeing yourself challenging yourself next time for a bigger challenge coming your way.

Only because you have become confident about yourself.In other terms you are self-assured
