Past Vs Present - 1 ( Child Artists : Where are they now? )

Today I decided to write about the child artists who we still like to remember. From Hollywood movies to Bollywood movies , Child artists were appeared in various type of films . In Child oriented films to Typical hero oriented filmss , child artists have portrayed pivotal roles .

Okay , I will start from the smallest child artist those days . Do you remember the cute little baby Bink from Baby's Day Out movie?
Actually there were two babies , twins . Even though there was only one in the movie. Both of them acted in the movie .That was the only movie they acted till date.  They are Adam and Jacob Worton ; Below image is Adam Worton:

Next one is Kevin from Home Alone 1 and 2. Do you remember him? Macaulay Culkin acted as Mischievous Kevin . Till date he has acted in various movies and TV shows.

Then the cute little Alex from Home Alone 3 . This is the way he looks now:

Coming from Hollywood to Bollywood , I don't remember any child oriented movies like above Hollywood movies. But child artists have done a fantastic jobs in some most popular Hindi films .

For example : Do you remember the little Anjali , Rahul (Shahrukh Khan) and Tina (Rani Mukherji) 's daughter who make her father Rahul and Rahul's old best friend Anjali (Kajol) fall in love from Kuch Kuch Hota Hai. Sana Saeed played as little Anjali and she is a television actress now. But people still remember her as the Little Anjali .

Again from Kuch Kuch Hota Hai , my most favorite character was the little sik boy who doesn't speak a word except in the climax scene . Remember , how cute he was when he was counting stars ?

Then I will also add some more child artists who are now big stars in the industry

Hansika Motwani : Then acted in Koi Mil Gaya and Kyunki Saas bhi kabhi bahu thi tv serial ,Now a popular tamil movie actress who acted in Vettikaran , Mapillai etc .

Imran Khan : Then acted as Young Aamir Khan in  Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak  and Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikander . Remember ? Papa Kehta Hai (From QSQT) and Pehela Nasha (From JJWS) songs were from those movies . And Look where he is ?

Smoothies Vs Shakes

Basically Smoothie is a kind of beverage which contains blended fruits or chocolate or preferred ingredients with crushed ice. It can also contain frozen fruits, honey, icy ingredients milk, yogurt or ice cream. Smoothies are generally healthier and can use healthy add-ons too.


And shake or generally milkshake is a sweet, cold beverage which is made from milk, ice cream or iced milk, and flavors or sweeteners such as fruit syrup or chocolate sauce. It’s not healthier like former. But you can use healthy add-ons like protein powder and make protein shakes.

Chocolate Cakes Vs Chocolate Brownies

Both Chocolate cakes and brownies are of course taste chocolaty with spongy textures. And both are delicious too. So what is the difference?

While almost every cake recipe calls for the basic ingredients of baking powder and baking soda, most brownie recipes do not. Cake recipes also call for about twice the amount of flour than brownies and a significantly less amount cocoa. These variations made them to taste different. Also brownies are flatter and denser than cakes. They have a cracked top unlike cakes. Normally cakes are fluffy, soft and light.

Brownies are also considered to have a more chocolate flavor than chocolate cakes, not only because of the way they bake, but because their recipes usually call for more cocoa than a normal cake.

Mars Chocolates Vs Ritzbury Chocolates

Mars Vs Rave

Rave is a similar chocolate to Mars bars which has soft caramel & nougat center, together with the rich layer of chocolate. Even the chocolate wrapper looks so similar. But Taste… Not quite similar. The Original Mars bars have different variations such as Almond, Dark and Light, Gold etc. But Rave is made similar too normal mars bar. I have tasted both chocolates. 

For me the difference comes with nougat center and chocolate coat. 

Snickers Vs Champ

Snickers is the best peanut nougat topped with roasted peanuts and caramel, enrobed in milk chocolate produced by Mars Incorporated.

The Champ chocolate by Ritzbury is also with roasted peanuts, caramelized and coated with rich chocolate.

Both of them look little bit similar from the wrapper. (Sorry! Couldn’t find a blue wrapper one) But you can taste the difference just like I said in Mars Vs Rave.

Bounty Vs Tropical

Bounty has coconut filling covered with sumptuous milk chocolate. Same is the Tropical, which has the Sri Lankan coconut filling. Since I have tasted both I think Bounty is sweeter than Tropical, While Tropical is more fresh coconut filling than Bounty.

Well! These are my opinions on Mars products and Ritzburry products. You can mention your comments in the comment box. Enjoy the post!

·         ¼ teaspoon ginger , finely sliced for topping

Directions:

Add to the pan and stir fry until light golden brown.

Add ground chicken, pullao biryani masala and chicken tikka masala to the skillet and stir fry for around 10 minutes until the chicken is cooked through.

Pour into serving plate and top with diced tomato and ginger. Enjoy!

Chicken Tikka

Chicken tikka is a chicken dish in Indian and Pakistani cuisine. It is popular in all over the world. It is traditionally small pieces of boneless chicken in the form of kabab. The word tikka means “pieces". Chicken tikka is also prepared as Masala Chicken Tikka in Punjab , India.

I haven’t made this dish and will prepare it in the future.
