Search for Charity on GoodSearch.comEver wanted to do a charity, here is your chance to do something for the charities. You just have to do a simple think is to do a search on GoodSearch.com instead of your favorite search engine (for most it must be Google) . If you search on Yahoo then it should not be much of a transition as GoodSearch.com uses Yahoo search results.

It’s simple. You use GoodSearch.com like any other search engine (they have partnered with Yahoo! to ensure great results), but each time you do, money is generated for your favorite cause.

The company is founded by a brother and sister team who lost their mom to cancer and wanted to find an easy way for people to support their favorite causes. Their goal is to direct as much money to the organizations as possible, so they are not spending a lot on advertising.

Go Ahead and spread the word about them on your blog !!

The 4 Sen’s

CW - Rimi Sen - Reema Sen - Raima Sen - Riya SenDay before yesterday I happened to see Golmaal starring Ajay Devgan, Arshad Warsi, Shraman Joshi, Tusshar Kapoor & one actress. I did not know the name of actress so I asked few of my colleagues and we had a great confusion to who she was as someone she is Raima Sen, someone said it was Rimi Sen and I knew about 2 others Ms. Sen (Ria & Reema) but was quite sure that actress in Golmaal was not one of the two I just mentioned.

So I tried to find information about all Ms. Sen’s that have worked / working in bollywood and found that there are four Ms. Sen’s who are working in bollywood. I found information about them on Wikipedia - its a great source for quick & relevant information.

The four Ms. Sen’s are :

Rimi Sen - She is the one who is lead in Golmaal and apart from that she has worked in quite a lot of other hindi films which are :
Dhoom 2 (2006) - To be released
Golmaal (2006)
Phir Hera Pheri (2006)
Deewane Huye Pagal (2005)
Kyonki (2005)
Garam Masala (2005)
Dhoom (2004)
Baghban (2003)
Hungama (2003)

Reema Sen - is the one who had played a lead role in Hum Ho Gaye Aap Ke opposite Fardeen Khan

Raima Sen - She is daughter of Moon Moon Sen and had done a small role in Dus. Has also worked in few other films including Parineeta, Choker Bali, Godmother

Riya Sen - She is also daugther of Moon Moon Sen, started off with Tamil films, she made her Hindi debut in the film Style. She starred in the action thriller Qayamat: City Under Threat (2003) which was a hit but she only had a minor role in the film. Other films have not done as well, though Shaadi No. 1 was averagely received.

So I think thats quite a lot of information about Ms. Sen’s - if you ever have had any confusion about these pretty ladies then this will definitely help.
