But things don’t always work out that way.Some films opt to delve into the darker side of romance – of love affairs that quickly go sour and spiral into destruction.Often, this is deliberate. Films such as Nicolas Roeg’s Bad Timing or Derek Cianfrance’s Blue Valentine steer viewers through the choppy waters of a toxic…

Modern Love Hyderabad trailer is here. On Monday evening, Amazon Prime Video shared a nearly two-minute long trailer for its Telugu-language adaptation of the popular American anthology Modern Love. The second Modern Love Hyderabad trailer begins with a touching voiceover about how humans learnt to fall in love even before they mastered the art of speaking.

The idea of love languages is that we all express love differently – physical touching, buying gifts, giving compliments and so on – and recognizing that others may not express love in the same way that we ourselves do can help keep relationships strong. But there's not been much research done to back that idea up.  A new study offers some new insight: based on a survey of 100 heterosexual couples, people whose partners use love languages they prefer to receive reported higher levels of relationship and sexual…

Though I am the mother of two happy and driven entrepreneurial sons, these are questions I never thought to ask.Looking back, I would have loved to have read stories about how entrepreneurs had grown up — not just Bill Gates and Steve Jobs, but people who we could actually identify with. Entrepreneurs, in my view, are not just founders of for-profit businesses. They are resilient, hard-working people who start…

Many of us grow attached to animals, whether it’s by raising a puppy or regularly feeding a crow on the porch. But for millennia, certain communities around the world have formed a different sort of bond—one where animals are more like business partners than pets.
