BOOK REVIEW - “THE FACELESS SALDIRGAN BY SAHIL LOOMBA”
The Faceless
Saldirgan is a breath of fresh air in the growing stories about murder, rape,
pain and abnormality as it doesn't just focus on the murder but is quite a lot
about the psychology of the killer or the killer instinct, if I must put it
that way. The ease with which the executes his meticulous plans and reaches his
goal is amazing. While you would be intrigued by what happens in the end and
are clueless in the puzzle about who the killer might be, very few could
actually guess who the killer is and understand the grand finish the plot is reaching
out for.
I usually get
bored if the details are more and are not related to the story or, how do I put
it pleasantly, not actively contributing to the story, but this was an
exception. I actually read through the passages where biology, chemistry,
psychology, quotes of religious texts was mentioned verbatim. This was because these
small trinkets of information was more to do with the story than to show off
the knowledge the author had about the topic or pointed out how lazy you were
for not checking that on Google. The story could comfortably bring out the
beauty in the characters and build the plot effectively.
To explore
the talent of the master storyteller you need to read this book. Towards the
end, I wished it could move faster. While the deaths were dealt clinically.
Overall a good read, especially if you like murder mysteries and love a quick
read. To explore the talent of the master storyteller you need to read this
book.
Now my Positive viewpoints:
The
positives of the story are the characters easily identifiable. Even though the narration is again easy to read
and allows us to easily go through the entire story, tale is spread over long
24 years, but the novelist has chosen present tense all through, and story is
intertwined in the past and the present. This style provides a simultaneous
telling of many stories happened in different times together. The reader is
immersed between the layers of the internal as well as as the external
upheavals of various characters. There are many episodes that remains with you
long after you keep the book back on the shelf. Jack, Ralph and John live an interesting life to say the least and Jack
has the best of everything happening to him along with the beautiful Danielle
who adds the jing to the story. Danielle is unfortunately
killed off in a horrific manner right in the beginning and the Saldirgan makes
a grand appearance albeit being faceless.
Some suggestive points:
Although
the narration of the story is good but in my opinion,I wished it was faster but you can never get a perfect pause to the explosive
end. While the deaths were dealt clinically, I would have preferred slightly
more effect to the process. Overall a good read, especially if you like murder
mysteries and love.
Final words:
Overall if
asked I would say this is good job done by the author,
the book is interesting and a fast read. The writer makes an storyline
interesting with her narration abilities. I would give 3.5 stars to this book.

Great food with equally great ambience- United Coffee House, Connaught Place, Delhi
If you are a delhiite or from some other state and have ever been to Cannought place even for a walk around the inner circle, you must have crossed your paths around United Coffee House which is one restaurant that your eyes have certainly witness.Since long I had this place has been on my list for a while. So, the other day me and my friend decided to visit to this restaurants.The place is so full of positive energy around. They have got a great seating space which is spread across the ground floor and upper ground floor. The interiors of the restaurant got the old charm of colonial ambience. People who have not been there ever might get confused with the name “United Coffee house”, that this place may be a any other coffee serving place, however, that is not the scenario, they have great variety of food and drinks in their menu.Talking about the food, the taste and presentation were good. We liked majority of food items, they were absolutely good, but some of them were average. We ordered basil paneer tikka in the appetisers, which were all good and presentable. In the mains, we had butter pindi chole, dal makhni, palak paneer, butter naan, mix raita and rice. Drinks were average and needs great improvement, we had Virgin Majito and Bloody merry. Deserts were very good and authentic, we had Gulab jamun and chocolate decodence The staff was courteous and service was quick. I would recommend you for a lovely fine dining experience and food. Had a very good experience overall.

जी लूँ इत्मिनान से....
मन चाही कर लूँ जी लूँ इत्मिनान से...,
नगमें कुछ लिख लूँ...जो भरे हो ज़ज्बात
से...,
सोचूँगी फिर की मुझे...,अब क्या
करना है |
समझ लूँ रिश्तों की नई परिभाषा...,
आयाम नए कुछ गढ़ लूँ फिर सेपर्दे में छुप लूँ रुख को...,
सोचूँगी फिर की मुझे...अब क्या करना है
|
आज़ाद परिंदों सी उड़ान भर लूँ गगन
में...मन मानस के स्मृति पटेल से...,
मिटा दू कुछ ख्यालों को निरन्तर चलते
अन्तदुंद से...सोचूँगी फिर की मुझे....अब क्या करना
है |
कर लूँ महसूस इन एहसासों को...,
बरखा के बरस जाने का...,सावन के
भर आने का...,
मिलन अंतिम तुम से जो जाने का एहसास कर
लूँसोचूँगी फिर की मुझे...,अब क्या
करना है |

Latest addition to the list of amazing Drink n Dine options in Noida- Jokers
Lighting arrangement here is done a great amount of aesthetic sense as this place doesn’t feel humane at all. The staff was quite professional and friendly as well
although I and my friend (two females )went there on the last Valentine still they were so supportive that even after the great crowd, they managed to accommodate us.
We had their Jokers menu sizzlers accompanied with a glass of red wine and a bloody mary to treat ourselves.The paneer sizzler was amazing and it was clubbed with veg fried rice.
The combo of fried rice and paneer sizzlers was sure something to try at a restaurant like this
Although I felt the bar menu seems little over expensive compared to even decent ones but the cocktails we had was a great work of art by the bartender
The bartender even gives us the liberty to specially customised our drinks with the flavour of our own choices
Though space area is not very big and doesn’t have any terrace or other floors
however, even with the limited space, they do manage to pimp it well
Would not forget the choice of songs played indeed very great and foot tapping, it automatically turns your mood on to the atmosphere around. still, not some loud place with lots of people, Suits me though :-)
