I'm using a motorola phone and I wish to upgrade to a better phone. I'm looking at samsung s26/iphone 17/iphone air.

I'd appreciate it if anybody has any suggestions or if you can get me a good deal 😇

Hit me up for any plans on coming Saturday in Noida. Up for it.

Power cuts in summers is a phenomenon that we all grew up with. Although summers in noida are not designed to handle power cuts.

The real killer is not the power cuts but the hefty and inhuman cost that we incur when we run the DG sets for power supply. For obvious reasons TV, Fridge, lights, AC will run.

If you look at the pre-paid meter (which most societies have), you will be shocked at the consumption. How quickly the balance in these meters dwindle down?

In the night you don’t realise but almost 40% times, your society is running on DG.

What is the solution?

I recently got married, and what should have been a beautiful experience turned into months of stress because of our wedding planners - Perfection Creators (Ujjwal Dawar & Aishwarya). I’m sharing this both as a warning and to seek legal advice.

We hired them in July (well in advance). The first month was supposed to be for vendor finalisation. We all sat in their office, finalised decor and budget, and everything seemed fine.

A few days later, they scheduled a meeting with a photographer and pressured us into booking them. They clearly said that if we chose any other photographer, they wouldn’t take responsibility for managing them or their logistics. Not wanting friction early on, we booked the suggested photographer.

That photographer later turned out to be a scam. We had to cancel and ended up losing our money.

After this incident, their behaviour completely changed.

From August to October, we kept asking for updates, but they showed zero interest in progressing work. During these months, I repeatedly asked them for recommendations for a mehendi artist, makeup artist, and hairstylist. They suggested one makeup artist who, upon checking, turned out to be a beginner and had not even done bridal work.

When I found a makeup artist myself, I asked them to negotiate and finalise her. Despite daily reminders, they contacted her a week later and by then she was already booked.

In November, we met them at their office. To our shock, they said: “Let’s finalise the decor.” We were confused because decor had already been finalised in July, and I had even called my family down specifically for budget discussions.

Then they said, “Ab to sab kuch double triple rates ho gaya hoga,” implying that now the decor would cost significantly more. It felt like we were being made to pay extra due to their negligence. At that point, we started suspecting that because we didn’t proceed with the photographer they pushed, they were trying to recover their lost commission through inflated decor costs.

After that, we decided we would book decorators ourselves and let them handle wedding logistics.

In December, they completely ghosted us.

On January 3rd, when they finally picked up our call, Ujjwal yelled at us, threatened us, and called us names, all because we were asking for updates on services we had already paid for. His final words before hanging up were:

“You’re spoiling my mood right now and this is beyond patience.”

All of this just a month away from our wedding and so they did not show up at the wedding.

We had to manage everything ourselves, which is absolutely not what we signed up for. They have also not refunded our money. We paid 45% of their wedding planning fee.

Now that the wedding is over, I am ready to take legal action to recover the money.

And to anyone planning their wedding? Please do not book ‘Perfection Creators’. When they reached out to me their tone was completely opposite of how they turned out. Months of stress during what should be the happiest time of your life is not worth it.

What are some things I should be aware of? Which sectors are close to Amity that has a safe net for students and easy access to essentials? Any advise is appreciated 👍
