Sindhutai Sapkal | Mother of thousands of Orphans

 From begging on stations at the age of 20 to becoming the mother of more than thousand orphans, how did Sindhutai Sapkal became mother of so much kids. She saw life at the worst and then decided to help others for whom no one is there to help.

Welcome back to Shekhar Arena!

Today we will let you know about a person who all of us should know for the noble cause she did to the society without asking anything in return. Today we will talk about MAI-that's what her kids and people who knew her called out of love and affection.

 At the age of 20, she was sitting, crying at a station and had a 10-day baby with her. She saw another beggar crying in loneliness and disgrace. The person wanted to have some water before death. She went to the beggar, offered him roti so that he can have food and water before he dies. Fortunately the beggar didn't die nor did Sindhutai.

She started "Sanmati Baal Niketan" for orphans and beggars. In today's world where everyone is thriving behind self-growth and money, a woman who struggled to manage her own food started this organization to help others. Assume once how she managed this organization where 1000's of kids live today, get educated and are doing great in life.


Mai got a lot of awards from various presidents including Padma Shri. She said in an interview- I got so many awards but not a single government fund. Adding to this she said-"Awards ki roti nahi banti (Awards can't buy you breads)". 

The country needs to know about Mai. We intend to suffer a lot in our lives but think this way- A lot of things we have got without or with negligible efforts. She is a real-life inspiration. A real-life hero!


Mai left us early this year in January. It's high time we change our heroes and role models. These people need some validation and support from us.

Adheen-The Dependent | Not a Movie Review

"Ice, that is brittle can be shattered, while water flows and adapts" . This means 'टूटता कठोर है ,कोमल नहीं'. Have you ever thought why most of our parents want us to guide throughout our childhood and teenage till the time we stand on our feet? Think about this and let  me know in comments. Vacations and Parents I think dependency is a relative term, you may be dependent on someone in one context, independent in other. To all the people living away from their homes, please respond on these two questions? 1. When was the last time you visited your home? Here, home means the place where your parents live. 2. If you visited in last 6 months, did you sit still with them and talked about how life is going, what problems are they facing, are there any health issues or anything else without peeping in your phone? You think they are fine, but wait they are not. Adheen, a short film directed by Yash Verma talks about these intricacies. Rajendra(Sanjay Mishra) fre...

Solitude and Loneliness

Don't you think the root cause of most of our problems is the underlying loneliness that most of us experience in our daily lives today. Let's analyse what is the reason behind and derive some practical solution to this. Basically there are two situations i.e, loneliness and Solitude. In loneliness, you are alone and worried about having no one by your side while solitude is experiencing a whole new world when you are alone. You experience happiness when you are alone. You don't need a second person to be happy. The root cause of our emptiness is that our foundation for living is based on lies. We are stuck in the loop of lie spread by ourselves only and continue exhibiting dual personality. Actually we try to complete our emptiness through other things, actions and relationships (people)- don't we? As a consequence, we become more dependable on those things, actions or people. This dependency could be at physical, psychological, financial or even at mental level....

Bihar and the Education System | Bihar mein bahar h

He was completely demoralized, analysing where did he go wrong. Was his preparation not apt enough to crack the interview? Didn't he had the technical knowledge, the profile required- all this was whirling in his head, while he sat in disguise with a cup of tea. Welcome back to Shekhar Arena!  Hope you are doing fine. Today, I will tell you a story- a story of our friends, students and the teachers! There is this friend of mine who was attending an Off-Campus placement drive of a reputed MNC. He did his graduation in computer applications from a renowned institute of Bihar. 6 out of 49 students cleared the aptitude test. There he met another guy about whom he said later that guy was technically sound than him. This guy did his graduation from same renowned institute, located in another city of our state. The technical round was a WhatsApp video interview and the interviewer asked scenario based questions. He was dumbstruck, didn't understand the questions well-answers of...
