Intro

Excited to launch ‘Gana Gana Series’ on the blog with sad songs. There is something about sad songs that I love. Many of my all-time favourite songs have a tone of melancholy in them. It’s probably because I often think about the deeper meaning of life so I can relate more to sad lyrics than those in ‘Disco Deewana‘ kind of songs. In this post, I want you to sit back, chill and enjoy.

For those of you who are worried about something, listening to sad songs and crying is also a great past time 😀 I have seemed to enjoy that in the past. In ko sunnay se bare mazay ka rona ata hai 🙂 

Music apps I use

I listen to songs mostly in the background while I’m working or doing chores. I do that either on the phone through SaavnSoundCloud or Deezer apps. In my car, I used to play them on my DVD. At home, I use YouTube.

My favourite singers

  1. Atif Aslam (Heartthrob)
  2. Arjit Singh
  3. Sanam Puri (Mr. Cutest!)
  4. Armaan Malik

Disclaimer

The videos of some songs may contain adult content. While creating this series of posts, I realised many of my favourite songs had a really vulgar video. Tried looking for alternative video wherever it was possible but its difficult.

  2. Lo Maan liya – Raaz Reboot
  3. Uska hi banana – 1920

2 new cute lamps in entryway 💃 game on! What do you think?
We finally did Georges Island Tour… one of the most historic defence points in the harbour. It was such perfect Weather. 
Halifax ka chhota sa island, lekin tunnel system kafi gehra.

Purane zamane ke defence tunnels — thanday, narrow, aur fascinating. 🧐 built in the 1800s, once used by soldiers to find refuge beneath the fort.

Honestly bohot yaadgar day trip.
Kabhi kabhi bas ek simple tour bhi dil ko refresh kar deta hai.

Weather was beautiful, the tour was simple, and the history was surprisingly deep.
Sometimes the smallest islands hold the biggest stories.

Booking info:
We booked the official Parks Canada tour via Ambassatours. Tickets were approx $25 per person for the round‑trip ferry & island access inc tunnel tour.
August was beautiful. 😻 Alhamdulilah.

We celebrated our 11th wedding anniversary yesterday—
with our fav beach café morning,
a peaceful dinner (rare!),
and our first dance night since having kids.

It reminded us how deeply couples need this time.
Not fancy, not extravagant… just uninterrupted moments
to remember who you are together.

Kids dadi babysat this time but really manifesting trusted friends
who babysit each other’s kids
so couples gets nights like this 🤍 
super important for thriving relationships
