Rakhi - The Bond of Love


  Raksha Bandhan or Rakhi, this festival that marks the sacred bond of love of a brother fro his sister. By tying a simple thread on the wrist of her brother a sister ensure that their love and this relation last till end. And in return it is the unspoken promise of a brother to swear to protect his sister all life long.      
It is this magical bond for which we all celebrate the festival of Rakhi every year. Celebrated in the month of Sawan, Rakhi tying tradition goes back to ancient times, when Draupadi tied a part of her chunri to Lord Krishna's hand. And it was because of this thread that he protected her from the Kaurvas.    
 
This was the historical chapter, now we come to modern times when much advertising of this festival is done through different sources. Like every year new designs of rakhis come into market and also the options of gifts (for your sis) has also changed with the time.
But one thing that has not changed is kite flying competitions in the evening. Loud music, sweets, drinks entire family gather on the terrace for this. Its just a picture perfect moment.

Andaman And Nicobar Islands Through Camera Lens

Last month with my friends I went on a much needed break that I was eying for a long time. The destination that we chose was no less then a heaven, yes we went to Andaman and Nicobar Islands. The place was so peaceful and beautiful that I almost forgot about all my tensions and office problems. The blue water of the Bay of Bengal added extra charm to this place.

Although I must say that when I was coming back I was left wanting for more. I wish to go there asap. Seriously did not want to come back but coming back was the saddest part of my trip.

Now not saying any much here I would like to share some of the beautiful clicks of the paradise called Andaman and Nicobar.
