Eastside (King County, Washington)
The Eastside, in the context of the King County, Washington, United States area, is a collective term for the suburbs of Seattle located on the east side of Lake Washington. In this context, Westside is synonymous with Seattle. More broadly, in Washington State, the terms Eastside refers to any city east of the Cascade Mountains passes.
There is no formal definition of the Eastside and the exact cities and towns that comprise the Eastside are a matter of dispute. The following cities are included in most definitions: Bellevue, Issaquah, Kirkland, Newcastle, Mercer Island, and Redmond.Sammamish is most often grouped with these core cities, so that all of the cities and towns between Lake Washington and Lake Sammamish, as well as the Sammamish Plateau, are included within the Eastside.
The incorporated neighborhoods west of Bellevue, collectively known as the Gold Coast, are usually considered part of the Eastside. These areas include Beaux Arts Village, Clyde Hill, Hunts Point, Medina, and Yarrow Point.
Eastside, Atlanta
Eastside refers to the city district comprising the easternmost portion of Atlanta, Georgia, United States. The Eastside generally encompasses the area bounded on the west by Midtown Atlanta and Downtown Atlanta and on the east by the city limits. The central corridor of the district is the BeltLine Eastside Trail, which connects northern Eastside neighborhoods with those to the south. The Eastside is perhaps best known for its nightlife establishments, local eateries, and quirky public art.
History
The area that is now the Eastside was the site of the Battle of Atlanta, which was part of the Atlanta Campaign and sealed the fate of the Confederacy. Indeed, Lemuel P. Grant designed the city's fortifications to protect his plantation on what is now the Eastside neighborhood of Grant Park. General James B. McPherson placed his Yankee forces on high ground a mile east of Grant's plantation, in the neighborhood today known as East Atlanta.
Beginning in the 1890s, streetcar suburbs were constructed on the Eastside as havens for the upper middle class. These neighborhoods, many of which contained their own villages encircled by shaded, architecturally distinct residential streets, include the Victorian Inman Park, Bohemian East Atlanta, and eclectic Old Fourth Ward. Some Eastside neighborhoods, including Kirkwood and Edgewood, were separate municipalities before annexation by Atlanta in 1909 and 1915. By mid-century, the Eastside began to succumb to the effects of urban decay and white flight, with Virginia-Highland remaining a notable exception to the area's decline. While the area suffered during the 1970s and '80s nadir of Atlanta's depopulation, much of its historic architecture remained intact.

Kash (film)
Kash (meaning:Puff) is a 2014 indie feature film directed by Souman Bose with Subholina Sen and Souman Bose playing the lead roles.
Plot
Kashi Mehrothra, a youth in his early twenties is heavily influenced by Ram Sen, A "proletariat" who used to make a living by selling biris (small Indian cigarettes) and within a span of few years evolved into a huge capitalist. Ram Sen preached: "বিড়ি উন্নতির শিরি !" (meaning: "Indian cigar is the staircase to success!") Kashi Mehrothra, was heavily influenced by his philosophy as an adolescent. He thought, if a man devoid of any formal education could do so much,he could do all this and more with a more sophisticated intoxicant-per say, a cigarette. Hence, his fantasies of being the "Cigarette King" of India started taking over. He got so much into cigarettes, his friends started calling him Kash, which means a puff or a drag of smoke. Motherless Kash, despite being born into an affluent business family relates more to the Proletarian philosophies. He goes on a journey trying to make his bizarre ambition of opening a cigarette factory. Meanwhile, other forces are at work. And Kashi Mehrothra's melancholic life transforms into a topsy turvy journey, where his life is threatened by creatures from the super natural realm, viz. Jack Ketch. Kash is a story of that journey. A political satire. A horror tale. And all the drama behind a little puff of smoke.
