People may avoid staying invested in stocks or commodities and prefer to sit on cash to ensure capital safety rather than worrying about the return. This situation typically arises when economic uncertainty or geopolitical issues spike. The way central banks the world over are cutting interest rates is creating panic in investors' minds as things may worsen from here on, said Sunilkumar Katke, Head of Commodities and Currency at Axis Securities.

Investors were forced to liquidate their precious metal positions in favour of cash in order to meet margin calls to cover losses in the stock market. The margin requirement is increasing with the fall in commodity prices.

Gold may see a level of $1,400 on downside on extreme panic situation, he added.

According to Navneet Damani, Vice President, Motilal Oswal, gold prices rose nearly 3 percent, following a steep decline in the previous session, as the dollar and global equities fell sharply after the US Federal Reserve preponed their policy meet which was scheduled later this week and announced another surprise interest rate cut.

The Fed slashed rates back to near zero, restarted bond buying and joined other central banks to ensure liquidity in dollar lending to help put a floor under a rapidly disintegrating global economy amid coronavirus pandemic.

The gold/silver ratio currently stands at 109.15 to 1, which means the amount of silver required to buy one ounce of gold.


Silver prices declined Rs 6,445 to Rs 36,640 per kg from its closing on March 13.

kishor kumar life story

                                        Kishore Kumar

Born as Abhas Kumar Ganguly on 4th August, 1929, this great singer known as Kishore Kumar, affectionately called Kishore Da, was one of those very few singers who took risks and experimented with different styles of music. Considered to be a legend in Hindi film world, this multi talented persona has excelled as a playback singer, actor, composer, lyrics writer, director, producer and script writer. The songs of Kishore Kumar have an extraordinary blend of romance, emotions, naughtiness and melancholy. We attempt to present the life history of Kishor Kumar in this short biography.

Kishore Kumar was born in a small place known as Khandwa located in the state of Madhya Pradesh. He was born in a typical Bengali family and was the youngest among his siblings. He had two elder brothers (Ashok Kumar and Anoop Kumar) and a sister (Sati Devi). His father Kunjilal Ganguly was a lawyer by profession and his mother Gauri Devi was from a well-to-do family. When his eldest brother Ashok Kumar became an actor, Kishore Kumar was still quite young. Later on, his second brother also ventured into movies to become an actor.

Kishore Kumar also started to show interest in music and often mimicked the great K.L. Saigal. Though he did not have any formal training in music, he decided to pursue it and followed his brothers to Mumbai. It was his dream to become a famous playback singer and be counted among legends. He would often go to the studios and ask producers if he could sing on the movie's soundtrack. Initially he could not develop a style of his own but nevertheless he perfectly imitated K.L. Saigal. Once, the great S.D Burman had come to Ashok Kumar's house to meet up when he heard Kishore singing. He actually thought it was K.L. Saigal singing and inquired if he was there too! When he came to know that it was Kishore singing, he truly appreciated and encouraged the young lad to continue refining his voice but at the same time, develop a style of his own.



Kishore kept this advice in mind and went on develop his own signature style. He perfected yodeling, a unique style he heard amongst the Austrian music collections of his brother Anoop. In Hindi film industry, his yodeling turned out to be widely popular and became a trademark of Kishore Kumar. His songs sounded absolutely natural, like laughter. He used to incorporate non-sensical terms into his songs and give it an entirely new feel. The ability to transform his voice according to not just the scene but also the actor is something that was truly incredible of Kishore. He has sung soulful songs for Dev Anand and also fun filled songs for Rajesh Khanna.

After Rajesh Khanna went out of the scene, Kishore Kumar belted out chart topping hits for superstar Amitabh Bachchan. When R.D. Burman stormed the music world, Kishore Kumar re-surfaced with hits like Roop Tera Mastana and many other melodious songs. Some films that deserve a special mention are Hum Kisi Se Kum Nahin, Kinara, Dream Girl, Anurodh, Sharabi, Mr. Natwarlal, Gol Maal, Dostana, Manzil, Padosan, Shalimar, Khatta Meetha, Kasme Vaade, Ghar, Don, Muqaddar Ka Sikandar, Chalti Ka Naam Gaadi, Dilli Ka Thug, etc.

When his popularity began to diminish during mid 80's, he retired and wanted to return back to Khandwa, his native place. Unfortunately, it was not meant to be. On October 13th 1987, co-incidentally the birthday of his elder brother Ashok Kumar, Kishore suffered a heart attack and breathed his last. His untimely and unexpected death shocked the entire nation. Kishore Kumar married four times and his eldest son Amit Kumar also ventured into the world of music.

kishore Kumar - Aa chal ke Thjhe

Aa Chal Ke Tujhe Main Leke Chalu (आ चल के तुझे मैं ले के चलू)
आ चल के तुझे मैं लेके चलू, एक ऐसे गगन के तलें
जहाँ गम भी ना हो, आँसू भी ना हो, बस प्यार ही प्यार पलें

सूरज की पहली किरण से, आशा का सवेरा जागे
चंदा की किरण से धूलकर, घनघोर अंधेरा भागे
कभी धूंप खिले, कभी छाँव मिले, लंबी सी डगर ना खले

जहा दूर नज़र दौड़ाए, आज़ाद गगन लहराये
जहा रंगबिरंगे पंछी, आशा का संदेसा लाये
सपनों में पली, हसती वो कली, जहाँ शाम सुहानी ढले

सपनों के ऐसे जहाँ में,जहाँ प्यार ही प्यार खिला हो
हम जा के वहा खो जाये, शिकवा ना कोई गीला हो
कही बैर ना हो, कोई गैर ना हो, सब मिल के यूँ चलते चले

KURMA PURI

This mix vegetable kurma recipe has some prepping work to be done and once you have everything ready, then you need to saute some ingredients and pressure cook. Pressure cooking saves time. So I use a pressure cooker often. Though you can make the kurma in a pan too. Just add water as required.

Serve hotel style vegetable kurma with chapatis, pooris or neer dosa or poha dosa or set dosa. Even plain soft dosa goes very well with veg kurma. You can also serve it with steamed rice or appam or lachedar paratha or Kerala paratha.

HOW TO MAKE VEGETABLE KURMA
1. Soak 12 to 15 cashews in hot water for 20 to 30 minutes. Later drain and keep aside.

2. Rinse and soak 1 to 1.25 cups mediums sized cauliflower florets in hot water for 15 to 20 minutes. This step is optional and only to get rid of any insects or worms in the cauliflower. After blanching the cauliflower, drain them and keep aside.
