Watching English TV Series’ and ‘Reading Books‘, are the only two things in my life that I’m good at, and especially now during the lockdown when I have nothing more to do.

When I say ‘English TV Series’ that doesn’t mean I hate ‘Hindi Series’ and why would I? There’s no reason to! Look at ‘Sasural Simar ka’. Oh, I know, I’m damn funny
