World Population Day World Population day is an annual event, observed on July 11 every year, which seeks to raise awareness of global population issues. The event was established by the Governing Council of the United Nations Development Programme in 1989. It was inspired by the public interest in Five Billion Day on July 11, 1987-approximately the date on which the world's population reached five billion people. World Population Day aims at increase people's awareness on various population issues such as the importance of family planning, gender equality, poverty, maternal health and human rights. While press interest and general awareness in the global population surges only at the increments of whole billions of people, the world population increases by 100 million approximately every 14 months. The world population reached 7,400,000,000 on February 6, 2016 & 7,500,000,000 on April 24, 2017.

Comoros The Union of the Comoros celebrates its Independence Day on July 6. This public holiday celebrates the day, when the Comoros gained independence from France. The Union of the Comoros consists of four islands: Grande Comore, Mohéli, Anjouan and Mayotte. The island of Mohéli became French protectorate in 1886, when its sultan Mardjani Abdou Cheikh asked protection from France. The same year one of the sultans of Grande Comore, Said Ali of Bambao, asked French for protection in exchange for their support of his claim to the entire island. The four islands were unified in a single administration and placed under French protection in 1908. After abolishment of the protectorates in 1912, the islands became a province of the colony of Madagascar. In 1973 France and the Comoros agreed on gaining independence, that would come into effect in 1978. The referendums were held on all four islands. Majority of the population of three islands voted for independence, while inhabitants o...

एक्टिंग का मतलब सिर्फ़ बॉलीवुड या हॉलीवुड ही नहीं होता। इसके अंदर बहुत गहराई है जिसमें डूबने के बाद ,  ज़िंदगी जीने का आपका नज़रिया ही बदल जाएगा।   जब आप एक्टिंग सीखने लगते हैं और एक्टिंग करने लगते हैं तब समझ में आने लगता है कि एक्टिंग सिर्फ़ ग्लैमर नहीं है ,  सिर्फ़ चकाचौंध नहीं है ,  बल्कि आत्मा को आत्मिक आनन्द देने वाली कला है | हालाँकि ये सच है कि ज़्यादातर लोग और युवा फ़िल्मों की चमक-दमक ,  नाम और पैसा देखकर ही एक्टिंग की ओर आकर्षित होते हैं लेकिन जो भी आप पर्दे पर देखते हैं ,  दरअसल वो तो एक बहुत बड़ी टीम का प्रयास है ,  एक प्रोडक्ट है। कहानी के संदेश को दर्शकों तक पहुँचाने वाला एक्टर भी इसी टीम का एक हिस्सा मात्र है l लेकिन चूँकि एक्टर का काम मानवीय संवेदनाओं से जुड़ा होता है इसलिए ये अत्यन्त दुष्कर और जटिल काम होता है क्योंकि इसमें आप अपने आप को भूलकर कुछ और बन जाते हैं ,  कुछ और हो जाते हैं आप वो बन जाते हैं जो आप वास्तविक ज़िंदगी में नहीं हैं अगर आप ख़ुद से अलग होना नहीं सीखेंगे तो आप दूसरे पात्र में भी नहीं ढल सकते। ये ए...

लिहाफ़ - Lihaaf | Hindi Story इतने सालों के साथ के बाद इतना तो मैं समझ सकता था कि कोई तो बात जरूर है कि कभी कभी रीना अपनी किसी ख्याली दुनिया में अक्सर गुम हो जाती है। हाँ , वैसे शिकायत नहीं कोई मुझे उससे। पर कभी- कभी महसूस होता है कि दस साल की शादी के बाद भी , कहीं कुछ तो था- एक इन्विज़िबल -सा गैप जो हमें अच्छे दोस्त बनने से रोकता- सा रहा था। आज फिर लेटे- लेटे यही ख्याल आ रहा था। “ सुनिए , एक बात कहनी थी आपसे " बालों में कंघा फिराते वह बोली। नींद को बमुश्किल अपने से दूर करते , लिहाफ के एक कोने से मुँह निकाल मैंने पूछा “ हाँ कहो , क्या हुआ ? “ वो दिन में चाचाजी का फोन आया था … कुछ दिनों में यहाँ आने की बात कर रहे थे …” “ अरे लो , आज तुम इसी सोच में डूबी हुई थी क्या ?… अच्छा है। पर तुम तो महान हो सच्ची। मायके से कोई आए , तो औरतें कितनी खुश हो जाया करती हैं। पर एक  तुम हो। शाम से ही कितना अजीब बिहेव कर रही हो। ये चाचाजी तो पहले भी तुम्हारे घर काफी आया जाया करते थे न। बढ़िया है।चलो आओ … लाइट ऑफ कर दो। ” लेकिन क्या इतनी -सी ही बात थी बस ? फिर रीना सारी रात करवटें क्यो...
