Masrur Temple Himachal Pradesh

It is thought that in the eighth century, a monolithic rock was cut into the shape of the temples at Masrur.

Ladakh Phugtal Monastery

From a distance, the Phugtal Monastery resembles a huge honeycomb, and getting there can seem equally intimidating. It is one of the few monasteries in Ladakh that can only be reached on foot and takes a day or two to walk from Raru through Chatang and Purne. It is built around a natural cave in the Lungnak Valley in Zanskar. Route: 463 kilometres from Leh

Cinderella Was Not Invented by Disney!

Century-long narratives from numerous cultures are woven together to create the real Cinderella.   You're familiar with Cinderella. You do, of course. She is a character we learn about through osmosis because she is a part of the cultural ether. Princess that she is. She is decked out in a lovely dress, glass shoes, long white gloves, and a shiny headband. To meet and dance with a very handsome prince and get home before the clock strikes midnight and her carriage turns back into a pumpkin, she overcomes the hardship of her evil stepmother and stepsisters, who treat her like their maid.  However, that isn't the true Cinderella. That is the Cinderella from the 1950 animated film and the recent remake that is currently playing in theatres. Not everyone can agree on who the real Cinderella is. She is a figure who connects the majority of human cultures and centuries of storytelling. And occasionally, her lost slipper isn't even made of glass. Greeks were the first Cinderellas.

James Cameron make Avatar: The Way of Water

It’s been 13 long years since Avatar—or any other film directed by James Cameron—debuted on the big screen. Hollywood has transformed since then: In 2009, Blockbuster hadn’t even declared bankruptcy yet. Since then, Disney has acquired 20th Century Fox, the studio that financed the first Avatar movie; expensive action films without superheroes now rarely get the green light, unless they star Tom Cruise; and streaming has crippled the movie theatre business. Yet Avatar remains the highest-grossing movie in history. When Avengers: Endgame briefly ascended to that top spot in 2020, Cameron launched a re-release of Avatar in China to recapture the title. It worked: The film has now grossed $2.9 billion in total. The director has long planned to make several sequels, but each year, when Disney would announce its upcoming slate, they’d add an addendum that the Avatar followups had been delayed yet again. Fans started to question whether Avatar 2, much less Avatar 3, 4, or 5, would ever be re
