Four Clover Life- By Namrata Shailendra Singh

Dil Chahta Hai and Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara are cult films that ensured we bought that bucket that houses our dreams and escapades. To the not so knowledgeable, The Bucket List is a 2007 American comedy-drama film directed by Bob Reiner. It's about two terminally ill men on a road trip to fulfill their wish list. You knew about this? Maybe yes, maybe no. But everybody seems to have it, either original or copied from someone. It makes one look all too KOOL and the ones who don't have it to look like FOOLS.

However, it’s now for the past two decades that the ‘working mums’ are also constituting a big part of the woman population, and hence comes the divide, each mum being territorial in holding her front ensuring 'NOBODY CROSSES THE FENCE.' But fences did get crossed and what was said is not as important as what was not said. Respond vs.
