The recent trailer for the upcoming Harry Potter series fails to ignite a flame of nostalgia in the generation that witnessed denim-on-denim fashions and a pre-social media climate.
As much as I loved seeing Miley Cyrus walk into the closet of my dreams in the Hannah Montana reunion, I hate that the anniversary special didn’t tell me what my favourite pop star is doing 20 years later.
In a city like Liverpool, Salah became something more than a footballer. 'Salah became so popular that most of the babies born in Merseyside were named after him.'

Modi would be remembered for ages with veneration across India if he does the following:
1. Free CBI, ED and other such agencies from political control so that the PM/HM/etc. cannot use these agencies as their pet dog.
2. Strengthen SEBI and RBI and add more teeth to them so they can bite the wrongdoers more effectively. Right now, they are toothless tigers.
3. Invest heavily in improving judicial infrastructure (including digitization) across the nation. Ensure that all judicial vacancies are filled up with bonafide officers.
4. Massive investment in primary and secondary education across the nation – both in terms of infrastructure as well as qualified manpower. This would require co-ordination with states though.
5. Actually making the GST a Good and Simple Tax instead of the joke that it is currently.

And please don’t bring up Gujarat. Another paper tiger economy.

India doesn’t learn good things. She learns only bad things like socialism, communism, and corruption.
