5 Motivational Movies During Lockdown



Movies have always entertained and conveyed a message to people through their content. As the lockdown continues, here are some of the movies which can help you in staying positive and motivated during the lockdown. 

1. Chef 
Chef is available on Amazon Prime and stars Jon Favreau. The movie is all about starting afresh and reigniting old passion both personally and professionally. The movie starts with Favreau having a fight at the restaurant he works which ultimately leads to quitting his job ad starting a food truck in Miami. 

This helps him in reuniting with his ex-wife and child. The movie is directed by Favreau and a Bollywood movie of the same name was released which could not gain as much popularity as the former gained. 

2. Khoobsurat 

Khoobsurat is a classic movie directed by Hrishikesh Mukherjee available on Netflix. The movie is all about order and rules which need to be followed in a household. When a young girl played by Rekha comes in the picture and revolts against it, the story takes a new turn. 
The movie could have been serious at this time but the humor is retained in the movie throughout. 

3. Tu Hai Mera Sunday

The movie is available on Netflix and is the story of five friends. The movie has many feel-good moments in it. The story is from the point of view of five different Indians which is marked with humor, tenderness and warmth. It also reminds what can happen when we open up by leaving aside the criticism. 

4. Angoor 

Angoor available on Amazon Prime is an adaptation of William Shakespeare's Comedy of Errors. The movie is directed by famous Indian lyricist Gulzaar and it is a delightful comedy. It is filled with warmth and innocence and has a very nutty conclusion.

5. Harishchandrachi Factory 

The movie is all about backstage when Dadasaheb Phalke created the first Indian film Raja Harishchandra. It has a lot of gentle humor and is filled with perseverance and curiosity. The movie is an example of Marathi New Wave and was released in 2009. The movie is streaming on Netflix.

How Floods have Effected Human Beings and Wildlife

Floods are a natural calamity that ruins houses, wildlife, crops and takes life of many people as well. People were already suffering from COVID 19 and the floods made it even more worse this year. The people were not safe inside their houses as well.  Floods forced everyone to come outside their houses and gather in a single place or ask for help. The condition of the people had become very miserable and the government came forward to help them in these tragic times.  They tried their best to help the people by providing them food and shelter so that they are not rendered homeless. There were many non-governmental organizations that came forward and helped the people in times of need and emergency.  It is really saddening to see the situation that has taken over the world and we can only hope and pray that things are returned to their complete normal self so that everybody can leave peacefully and comfortably.

She slowly gains confidence when people understand the work she is doing and she becomes the favourite of the Bihar people and ultimately gains their trust. However, the series is faulty on many grounds. Fir...
