Narendra Modi’s appointment as the Prime Minister.
One book/movie which you enjoyed reading/watching in 2014
Pakistani TV serial, ‘Humsafar’ and Zindagi Gulzar Hai. While Humsafar showcases ups and downs in relationships, the story of Zindagi Gulzar Hai revolves around a divorced woman who overcomes many challenges in her life. Both the serials taught me how to face hardships in life.
