Tough Times Amid #COVID19 : #ChangeIsNeccessary ;What Are You Doing to Innovate ? Engaged ? But How ?- LearnToInnovate

Change is often necessary for every individual and in the busy schedule, one often keeps trying to find time for himself or herself in which they can work on themselves and often try finding the "Me-Time" or as in today's lingo if we refer to. Corona Virus a deadly disease that is now on a rapid pace of taking deaths and infections in its gamut and proven to be even deadly than its Sister MERS & SARS. The pandemic claiming millions of lives and taking the same number or even higher when we talk about infections. Finding Time for ourselves was really difficult in the scenario or a regular day to day routine, but all thanks to the lockdown period due to which people are able to devote time for themselves. In the current situation despite the nationwide lockdown, the people who are acting as if they are an idiot by proving to roam across the streets without even caring about the deadly. We should never forget the people throughout our lives and especially the warriors (real unsung heroes) : be it the doctors, medical fraternity, delivery boys, daily wage workers & most importantly the media persons. Exercising the basic fundamental rights are also one of the most important things in a democracy but again it's upon the people about when and how to use them and suddenly they are using them unethically and especially when we talk about Social Media or even moving and roaming free in such complex situations were not just our nation but the entire world is suffering through. Although Some reports claim or even some denied the fact that the virus originated from China during testing of a deadly weapon, but the fact cant also is denied that the Country where it originated has now claimed that the situation is much better of the virus and controlled in Wuhan, which I again practically impossible. We all know that China and other countries are dependent on one another for different needs and those cant be stopped, and also the according to a TV9 Bharatvarsh report, China is manufacturing about 1 Crore Masks daily and that too in a single factory, now just think of a situation "when China portrays the world that the virus situation is becoming deadly in Wuhan and Hubei province, will other countries buy Masks from China ?- I think the answer will be "No"  

The Shivam Project

Much has been discussed about the situation and will go on for decades, not the virus but unfortunately the ability for economies and businesses to recover worldwide. Now, if i continue talking about China and its effects on the world economies there is nothing that can stop the world from talking about the negative side of the top Dictator in the world. At this time when the world leaders are too looking at themselves, I think even we should do that. I have been focusing on only one point and that is focusing on you and nothing else and by focusing I mean discovering and trying out new in you and get away with the traditional means in these changing times of technology. According to me, its only OTT platforms or Companies like Google, Zoom, GoToWebinar are making profits while the rest is completely down. While if we talk about Change, a company known as "Cure.fit" which runs major Gyms and food kitchens across the country has now shifted its operation to entirely video-based online Live Fitness Sessions, now just think isn't that creativity and best way to mold yourself according to the technology? I think the answer is "Yes, it is" Here we talk about companies but what if we talk about our own self first and make ourselves productive? isn't that a great idea?

Talking You, Being You, Discovering You was considered by the world once being "An Egotist" but now the situation has changed, the one who gets most productivity out of himself or herself is a winner and not a loser at these times because change only comes when the word "ME" becomes important and that only comes in such situations of a lockdown or self-isolation. Talking innovations at a personal level, I, during the period of lockdown have experienced new journeys of not just experimenting with a different world but even have learned new things and even accepted those as a part of daily routine. According to me, being in an isolation, one can get the best out of him because there are no time constraints and that's where the creativity enters. Being a Drummer, in these holidays, I am not just able to practice new tunes but also to groove on new songs and play them on the instrument. Playing - (Drum Cover By Me) "Smells Like Team Spirit" by Nirvana was something I always wanted to do, but due to time constraints, I could not do that. Again all thanks to not the Corona Situation but the situation of a lockdown or self-isolation. If I talk about more, I got an opportunity to work and write for this website called (AnkhoDekha).

Moving One step ahead, I during my holidays or this period have started a new initiative under my brands "The Social Trigger- An Initiative for Videos, The Shivam Project- An Initiative for Music Videos, The Shivam Bajaj Show- an Extension to The Social Trigger", and a new initiative which are my podcasts, experimenting with the platforms like Anchor have made me a self-taught learner and which I am proud of. The podcasts called "The Ethereal Show", I made sure for them to be available on every platform keeping in mid my listeners get uninterrupted listening and I am also working day and night on these two platforms which I have under the banner of "SB Productions" - Below link to other platforms for my podcast, for you to listen on your favorite platforms. Apart from my other works, I even have started my own poetry initiative on Instagram called "Hasrat" ( which can be read here) and even started working on a Fake News Helpline called "MythBreaker"

Again for me, it was something new and very interesting at the same time. My Curiosity always remains at a very high spot whenever I look at any technology as I consider myself to be tech-savvy and hyperactive as well. I am continuously trying new things and making my self productive at these times for myself and also trying to benefit people in whatever way possible from my side. Teachers play a very important part in one's development, and even in my journey all the staff right from my school till now at Chitkara University has helped me a lot in bringing the best out in me. The tireless efforts of the teachers teaching as well of teaching us through Online Classes also portray the efforts they are putting in the development of their students and not only for their development. Innovating Online Though Classes or Innovating our own self has only one world common ad which is "Innovating"- the most important aspect of one's development. But frankly speaking, there is one work which is still left for me to learn and that is "Household Chores". Involving myself and even changing my workout classes and schedule, be it Dance classes for Fitness or Yoga & Meditation through Cure.ft

I will again say that I do not appreciate the Coronavirus scenario but because of the Lockdown or self-isolation we are able to do much more than we usually do, also increase in the productivity of my own self can be analyzed using different parameters, also I cant not forget the time I am working on "Chitkara Radio- 107.8 FM" (You Can Hear us using the link) on a daily basis producing bulletins as well. I can defiantly say that the time when lockdown opens I can definitely see my self as a "One Man Army" of not only whatever I am doing to also teaching others about the same and I am proud of that. I am sure many of you must be having stories to tell during a lockdown? then what is you guys waiting for...Just drop us a comment below and we will read and share the interesting ones.

After Cotornaviru, I am sure the lives will become normal and I am positive towards the fact that "Hum Honge Kamyaab"

Aishwarya Sultani- An Interview with an Installation Artist (Chitkara University)

                                   Aishwarya Sultania: Multimedia, Installation Artist

Aishwarya Sultania, an All India Young People Award winner of 2001, a yoga enthusiast, an artist and a multimedia expert graced “Toxicity-2020” with her presence which was an alternative art symposium organized by Chitkara School of Art & Philosophy Unbound in the university campus.  My interview with her was an example as to how Aishwarya, looks at herself and life as a whole with respect to art as well. How is your experience at Chitkara University & How would you like to explain “Toxicity 2020” Experience here at the university is very good and also if talking about Toxicity, I feel honored that for us (the artists) an international alternative art symposium is being organized, it gives me immense pleasure to see that artists also get a platform like “Toxicity” to showcase the talents and their perspective of life?   As you are right here, I would like to know how far is Extra-Curricular Activities important, as you yourself are a lot into Yoga & Hockey apart from Art? For me, it’s very important to indulge or participate in sports as, I myself, am addicted to Facebook but every co circular activity helps me to rejuvenate not only from my body but also through Body & Soul. As an artist, if given a situation of you being against the Citizenship Amendment Act, how would you express your Anger on the issue? First of all, I would say that I am not at all against the CAA but if this is the situation, I would like to come out with certain different campaigns in order to let people know and express my anger. For something like, if people wastewater, that is something which gains a momentum of anger in me, for this I would really like to bring out certain activities.  Today’s generation is too much busy into social media without even realizing their actual potential, so what message would you like to give to the youth? As I already told you that even I am addicted to Social Media, but it’s really important as to how you utilize your given resources and not exploit them. Using social media for something productive will truly help you realize your potential.   An artist is perfect at whatever he or she does, and there was a perfect example for the people here in the university. Thanking Aishwarya Sultania, ended with a positive message to the youth and also with a positive presentation of Food Toxicity using her demonstration and installation, the installation was witnessed by many of the college students which in-turn was seen getting the message communicated to them regarding food and its toxic levels and especially the effects of street food on our body and the way it accumulates and effects on the body.

Encountering Falsehood & Facebook Weaponisation: Disseminating Falsehood or Promoting a Messiah? | Review By Shivam Bajaj| Based on Real Face of Facebook In India By P Guha Thakurta

 Hundreds of millions of users are generating digital traces of their daily lives on social media. Social media serve many purposes, the most salient of which relate to their original functions of communication and social connectedness.

Real Face of Facebook in India by Cyril Sam & Paranjoy Guha Thakurta is Propelling a politically delicate book in a politically charged condition that exists currently is for sure testing. Be that as it may, for a book that draws in its readers, remain on its pages, and relate with the book's data, it isn't so testing.

It is about how internet-based life has become a purposeful publicity weapon and disseminator of disinformation and misrepresentation. Without a doubt, it has been conceivable because of the promptly available Internet, the bounty of advanced cells and modest information.  

In excess of 300 million Indians are accepted to be currently on WhatsApp, making the nation by a long shot its greatest market. It is never again TV and political assemblies of changed nature alone;  ......Read the full review here on Shivam Bajaj's personal blog 

Life Flows On: Film Review By Shivam Bajaj

Starting in the beautiful Latur district of Uttarakhand, this Tom Alter starter “Life Flows On” produced and directed by Vishaal Nityanand is an exemplary piece of work by the director himself, throwing light on a sensitive topic like “Alzheimers” is not something to be seen very often and not even in a day to day cinema. The film focuses on the problem of Alzheimer's through a feature style but yet will be considered as realism and not realism gives its viewers a clear picture of what the film has to offer. Making it a blend with information and that too with a story to be told along with it is not something every storyteller can do. The film also focuses that even after the figure of Dementia patients to be 3.7 million in India our governments and decision-makers are still not aware of the situation and hence not ready to discuss it in the parliament as well and hence remains un-noticed. This piece of art also focuses that how does the protagonist’s daughter on her own gets herself involved with the system to educate governments and even handles the situation of her mother (later proved to have Alzheimer) too effectively and efficiently.  Apart from discussing Alzheimer's & Dementia, the film also focuses on how does budget allocations affect the awareness creation of any particular problems and how our political systems fail to execute due to lack of knowledge on any particular issue.  While with the memory fluctuations of the protagonist shows that how can such situations be handled efficiently. The way in which the old man was portrayed in the film who was also later proved to be with Alzheimer's added a great level of sensitivity molded in the form of emotions in the film. Society needs more films like this one to throw light on such issues. Overall a perfect blend of emotion knowledge can be complemented to this.

SMILE: Fishing in The Eye ? - REFRACTIVE SURGERY (Experience & Review)- A Story of Shivam Bajaj

Eyes are one of the most important and yet delicate organs that God has given to us to see this beautiful creation of his. Each and everything of our beautiful mother earth can only be seen if they are preserved and taken care of.  Let me now try to take you to a journey that made me smile not only through my face but also through my eyes.  SMILING though eyes might sound weird to you, I am sure that you will know my understanding of Smiling through Eyes.



Rummaging through the pages of my childhood album, I figured out that I use to wear spectacles since I was 4 years old.  Now, for some of you, this might be shocking or even not. but I knew what all I was going through,  in the age when children can see everything without any problem but in my case, it was not at all the same. Growing older and older, I started to know more about my situation with my parents, during our interaction, I got to know that I was once suggested for an operation for my eyes but at that time I was just 4 years old. Now, listening to this I was shocked that in the age when children begin to see the world with the beautiful gift of God, at that time I was suggested for operation. Yes but this was true.
