The best feel good romcoms

it's been exactly a month since Valentine's Day, but tis romcom season! 

there is nothing like cozying up after exams and watching a romantic comedy. 

1. we're starting with Googly, one of the most popular iconic Kannada movies. starring Yash and Kriti Karbhanda, this is one of those movies that was a blockbuster and is still now one of the most iconic movies he has ever starred in. 

Sharath and Swathi meet in Bangalore and fall in love but due to misunderstandings, they drift apart. Two years later, destiny brings them face-to-face at a friend's wedding. 

googly is available on Sunxt.

sandalwood has impeccable romcoms! 

2. paramathma starring our beloved appu, Aindrita Ray and Deepa Sannidhi. these are all iconic movies that I've been watching since I was a little girl. param which is the character appu plays is again one of the most iconic characters, one of my favourite comfort movies, you could watch it for the 100th time and still never be bored. 

Sharath and Swathi meet in Bangalore and fall in love but due to misunderstandings, they drift apart. Two years later, destiny brings them face-to-face at a friend's wedding. 

paramathma is available on disney+ hotstar 

jackie was recently re-released by KRG Productions, even though its not exactlty a romcom. it is worth an honourable mention. 

3. Jab we met- now for a little mix of other languages, i had watched jab we met when i was a kid probably, but i had no memory of it whatsoever.. when my boards just ended, the last subjet was math and right after math i wanted to unwind and i absolutely loved it. it was a nice hopeful, witty romance. and shahid kapoor in that era was perfection.and i know that it is a comfort movie for many and i can certianly undestand why, one of those iconic evergreen movies, and now definitely one of my favourites too.  .While they miss their train, Geet and Aditya begin a journey together to her home and what follows is a love that changes them.  

4. Wake up Sid- i watched 2 movies in one day hehe.. but this movie was everything, wake up sid felt more relatable and seemed more realistic. and since i watched both jab we met and wake up sid in the same day, i ended up comparing the two. this seemed more motivational. these were the eras of bollywood where they produced movies that were actually good and had a lot of meaning to them.. i loved the story and the characters especially aisha's and of course the protagonist siddharth himself who experiened a lot of growth. i wish i could live in the aesthetics of this movie. and i think i resonate with this more. 

5. how to Lose a Guy in 10 Days- this movie is so wholesome. 

the plot line of this movie is so funny, Matthew Macchoaney is charming, and Kate Hudson's acting is so witty and fun. this movie is inspired by a guidebook of the same name. I had no idea about it. I found out about it myself while writing this blog. 

one of the most iconic movies that have defined pop culture. 

kate Hudson's character Andie is a writer for a women's magazine and she makes a bet that she can make a guy fall in love with her in 10 days and get him to break up with her. which is basically the do's and don't's in dating, but obviously, they end up falling in love. which results in the most wholesome and hilarious scenes. 

iphone 15 plus review by Neha Madhukar

I have been using the iPhone SE Gen 2 for the past 3 years, it was actually my first phone and honestly, it has been great, ever since I was little, I always wanted to have an iPhone with a home button and I almost bought the iPhone Xr over it and I'm glad I didn't.

my dad got the new iPhone 15 Pro and I got the iPhone 15 plus and I couldn't be more grateful. it has been so amazing, going from such a small screen with a 4.7-inch display to a 6.7-inch display was such a big difference. 

and I have really small hands so it is quite difficult for me to handle the 15 plus but nevertheless, the big screen is so worth it. 

some of the cons of the iPhone 15/15 plus are of course as we all know the 60hz refresh rate and the slow speed of the USB C. 2.0 speed capable of 480Mbps data transfer, now this isn't that much of a con as in an average iPhone base model user probably wouldn't care much. so it would not matter that much per se. my dad has the 15 pros and it has a 120hz display which Apple calls the "pro motion" display when you know how 120hz display is, the 60hz display seems choppier. otherwise, it actually does not really matter to me. this is the first time where the base model is actually pretty good, and some actual changes. 

the dynamic island. now everyone says this is kind of gimmicky, maybe it is,  nevertheless I still really like it and the fun little animations that play. it is pretty useful with apps like Uber and Ola, and it's pretty nice to have a timer for instance running in the background instead of always staying on the app. It works with both Spotify and Apple Music, and it is easier to switch between music instead of going into the app 

I'm not much of a tech enthu, although I may be getting into it. these are just some of the things I know and have noticed. 

coming to the colors, everyone has been saying that the colors are pretty dull and weak this time around, well yeah it is, but I actually kind of like it. the lightest color probably has to be blue, it seems white in certain lighting but I really liked it ever since I first saw the 15 line up, i knew it was the one I was going to get if I did buy it. but to me, it seemed like a beautiful ocean blue. the black is spectacular.  it looks premium. it looks like the colors from the pro phones. 

the battery life of the Plus phones are known to be pretty good and they certainly are. i dont really use my phone much every day so it does not drop below 70 percent for me 

I was thinking about getting the s23 fe or one of the z flip series, but again because of the Apple ecosystem and since I've gotten used to the ios, as my first phone was also an iPhone, the iPhone just seemed like a better option,  my dad got the pro and he traded his 12 to get that, I was supposed to get the 12 but well things turn out for the best. and that was my opinion and experience of the iPhone 15 plus after having it
