"Put the Genie into the Bottle"

“Put the Genie into the Bottle” 💛

Headlines of news articles offer us – readers - lovely examples of the 'literary touch'!

This news article from today’s “The New Indian Express” proves such a joyous example to this fact! 

"To Put the Genie into the Bottle"

We can enjoy the full aura of this idiomatic expression only we had read and enjoyed the stories found in the good old book titled, One Thousand and One Nights

And this is one of the stories that opens the book!

It’s titled, “The Fisherman and the Genie!”

So in order to have a captivating ‘literary’ news headline like this one here, 👆 with a literary touch and feel to it, the writer must have either been a student of literature, or must have read vastly from literature. 😍

Oh! the pure joy and delight of being a literature student 😊🥳
