Finished SG Cricket bat made of Willow, in Kashmir, India
A worker in a cricket bat factory pasting stickers on finished cricket bats made of Willow at Sangam Bijbehara in Kashmir, India.
Cricket is the most popular sport in India. Go to any part in India from Jammu & Kashmir in the north to Kerala and Tamil Nadu in the south or from Maharashtra in the west to Assam in the east, you would definitely spot a bunch of boys busy with a cricket bat hitting a ball.
Behind the towering willows, Kashmir’s cricket bat industry is a living, breathing, manufacturing industry, as the bats are handmade at a local factory.
Forty kilometers from Srinagar is Sangam, the veiled world of the Kashmiri willow and cricket bat makers.
The willow clefts obtained from the willow trees here are being fashioned to manufacture quality cricket bats. Kashmir willow is largely utilized by cricket bat manufacturers as a substitute for English Willow. The trees are chopped into logs and are then split into wedges called clefts. The clefts are then cut into the basic shape of a cricket bat with the correct width and length.
These bats are not only popular in India, but also in Pakistan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka.

STREET VIEW: Ruine Hohenschramberg im Schwarzwald in GERMANY
Bei meinem ersten Rundgang durch Schramberg sah ich auch die Ruine Hohenschramberg. Allerdings war bei meinen ersten Besuch in Schramberg keine Zeit mehr zum Aufstieg zur Burg. Beim zweiten Anlauf suchte ich einen kürzeren Weg zur Burg, aber der offizielle Weg zur Burg war gesperrt. Die Umleitung war recht abenteuerlich und weit. Aber das Ziel hat den langen Umweg wieder wett gemacht. Die Burganlage ist beeindruckend und der Ausblick gigantisch.
It is quite difficult to drive with the car to the ruined castle of Hohenschramberg at Schramberg in black forest in Germany. But it is an amazing ruined castle with a bright view on the black forest valleys.

Madhuri Dixit on set, shooting for Bollywood film Arzoo
Madhuri Dixit shoots an emotional scene with Amrish Puri on the set of film Arzoo. Madhuri applies glycerin in her eyes so she can exhibits better emotions. Madhuri and Amrish Puri shot this scene in graveyard.
Madhuri Dixit changes the costume and gets ready for another scene. She touches up her make up and combs her hair. She gives another take in which she is talking to her boyfriend on phone.
Aarzoo is a 1999 Bollywood film. The movie directed by Lawrence D'Souza stars Madhuri Dixit, Akshay Kumar, Saif Ali Khan, Amrish Puri, Paresh Rawal and Reema Lagoo. The film was primarily filmed in Mumbai, but some scenes were filmed in London and Edinburgh.
Plot:
Dayashankar (Amrish Puri) is a wealthy NRI living in London with his wife Parvati Reema Lagoo and daughter Pooja (Madhuri Dixit), who is the apple of his eye. Dayashankar also takes care of his deceased best friend's son Amar (Saif Ali Khan), who he regards as a surrogate son, and has always wished that he eventually marry Pooja. Studying in Edinburgh, Amar is overjoyed when he is invited to stay with Dayashankar's family in London. He eagerly prepares for his meeting with Pooja, with whom he has shared his childhood, and plans to ask her father for her hand in marriage as soon as possible.
However, Pooja has other plans – she has fallen in love with Vijay (Akshay Kumar), an pilot and plans to marry him. This bitterly disappoints Dayashankar, as he has already tacitly promised Amar that he would marry Pooja. After some convincing from Parvati and Amar, who has decided to give up on marrying Pooja, Dayashankar agrees to his daughter's wishes. Though heartbroken, Amar puts on a brave face during Vijay and Pooja's engagement and subsequent marriage. However, tragedy strikes soon afterward as Vijay is declared dead in an aviation accident. Consequently, Pooja becomes a widow and becomes severely depressed; to make matters worse, she finds out she is pregnant with Vijay's child. Her father now is able to convince her to marry Amar so that the unborn child gets a nice father figure to look up to. Amar willingly accepts this marriage and takes on the role of father to Pooja's baby boy. When Pooja realises that Amar has always loved her, she begins to reciprocate his feelings.
In a twist of fate, after a few years the police reveal that Vijay is very much alive, and after his recovery he goes back to the UK to reclaim Pooja. Pooja is overjoyed to see him, but when Vijay sees that Pooja is happily married to Amar, he misunderstands the situation and believes societal rumours about Amar – that he had planned Vijay's aviation accident so that he could marry Pooja. Vijay becomes so hostile towards Amar that he gangs up with Kailashnath (Paresh Rawal), an old enemy of Amar's father who had killed him, and sets out for revenge by setting fire to Amar's factories and kidnapping Pooja's son, not knowing that the boy is his own son. Even though Pooja attempts to explain that she married Amar in order to give her child a father figure, Vijay continues to believe in the rumours about Amar. Vijay and Pooja decide they need to spend some time apart to deal with the turn of events, and in the meantime the police reveal that Vijay's accident was in fact not planned by Amar, but by Pooja's own father, Dayashankar.
When Kailashnath holds Vijay and Pooja's son captive, asking for a high ransom, Dayashankar begins to regret his actions and is willing to pay anything to get his grandson back. Vijay also begins to realize that his hostility against Pooja and her family is futile, and he starts to become more forgiving to his father-in-law Dayashankar and thankful to Amar for taking good care of Pooja and his son during his long absence.

Bengali Food - Incredible Seafood Feast at Bhojohori Manna in Kolkata, India
Amazing Bengali food in Kolkata, India!

When I was in Kolkata, India, one of my main motivations was to eat a proper Bengali seafood meal, so one evening I headed over to a restaurant known as Bhojohori Manna Restaurant to partake in what turned out to be one of my favorite meals in all of India. There are a number of different locations around India actually and throughout Kolkata, but the location I found was not far from the chaotic Esplanade intersections in the central part of the city.
Though I was eager to eat Bengali food, I really had no clue what I was going to order, so luckily the staff were all very friendly and made recommendations for dishes they thought I would enjoy. They chose some good dishes and soon a fleet of Bengali seafood dishes appeared on my table, all ready to be devoured. My hands washed I couldn't wait any longer and I started to dig into the Bhojohori Manna feast.
Bhetki Kalia is a fish curry paired with a potato and it was in a sweet coconut based curry. It was insanely flavorful and extremely delicious. The fish was soft yet it remained firm at the same time. Next there was Mochar Ghonto, a banana flower salad. Now at the time of eating it I honestly had no idea what it was until coming back to my computer and doing a little research to find out it was banana flower. It was creamy and super delicious - I thought it sort of tasted like jackfruit curry. It was spiced nicely and went well with my plate of rice. Next up was the Jumbo Chingri Malaikari, a huge prawn that was curried in a highly pleasant sauce. After removing the shell from the prawn, the meat just melted in my mouth and the sauce was beautiful. The Murgir Jhol was just a Bengali chicken curry, and while it wasn't seafood like the other dishes, it sure was wonderful too. But of all the Bengali food we order at Bhojohori Manna, the dish that stuck out the most to me was Medium Kankrajhai, the crab curry. I almost couldn't believe how good it was. It was basically all the flavors I could ever want all condensed onto pieces of succulent crab. It was indeed a heavenly dish that I won't ever forget!
There were 2 of us and our total bill came to 700 Rupees which is about $13 - but for the quality and the quantity, this was a wonderful deal. So while I had a few Bengali food meals, my favorite was the seafood feast I enjoyed at Bhojohori Manna. If you go to Kolkata, I would highly recommend this restaurant. It's a little cramped and small, but they serve top notch local style cuisine!
Thank you for watching!
