Culture: stories, trends and debates that shape what we talk about

Culture isn't just movies and music. It's the TV shows we binge, the phone we decide not to buy, the hashtags that spark arguments, and even court rulings that change a city's mood. On this tag page you'll find clear, short pieces that explain why something caught fire online, why a city is talking about an old gangster, or why a TV season suddenly costs so much.

What you'll find here

Expect a mix of quick explainers and reported pieces. Want gossip about TV awards? We break down which shows won the most accolades and why it matters for creators. Curious whether beer actually makes you drunk? We give a simple, practical take on alcohol effects and what factors change them. Interested in tech choices? There’s honest, plain-language advice on whether a phone is worth buying.

Some stories cross into politics and law because those things shape culture. For example, a recent piece looks at Arun Gawli's bail and what his release could mean for Mumbai's neighborhoods and local power dynamics. Other posts answer everyday legal questions — like how the Supreme Court works and whether you can approach it directly — explained without legalese so you can understand how big decisions filter down into public life.

How to use this tag

We aim to keep pieces useful and easy to scan. Each article starts with the main point, then gives the context you need. No jargon. No padding. If a topic is complex, we break it into bite-size steps or clear takeaways so you leave knowing what happened and why it matters.

Want to get more out of these posts? Use the site search with keywords like "TV awards," "Mumbai underworld," or "Apple News India." Read the short summaries first to see if a piece answers your question. And if something sparks an idea or disagreement, comment—culture grows when people talk about it.

India: What do people from Uttar Pradesh take pride in?

30 April 2023

As a blogger, I am always fascinated by the diversity of cultures and traditions across India. One such region that has caught my attention is Uttar Pradesh. People from this state take immense pride in their rich history, which includes the architectural marvels such as the Taj Mahal and the ancient city of Varanasi. They are also known for their vibrant festivals, such as Holi and Diwali, and their delectable cuisine that has a perfect blend of flavors. Furthermore, the state's contribution to Indian classical music and dance forms like Kathak, cannot be overlooked, making it a cultural hub worth exploring.
