Lights, Camera, Action!! Reminds me of a set of a movie in making…BUT, here we are talking about a newly launched initiative of a mobile content accumulation platform, NexGTV in association with the ace director, writer and storyteller Imtiaz Ali called the “SPOTLIGHT”. It is an online forum which will provide a launching platform to young talent. Users can make original short videos on variety of subjects and genres like horror, satire, drama, social, poetry, comedy original music, fiction and reality and can share it instantly. The platform intends to give talented people a chance to showcase their skills and also earn through it. NexGTV will carry selected videos under SPOTLight on its ‘TV on the GO’ platform.
Maria O Maria, No…we are not starting a karaoke but are praising the multi-talented Maria Goretti. You wanna know why? Hold your breath! We would love to reveal the reason. We recently got an invitation for a book launch. Any guesses on who wrote the book? Yes, you guessed it right, our very own bubbly VJ (that’s the first thing that comes to my mind about her). An Economics graduate who studied fashion design, a dancer, model, VJ, she has done it all and now adorns another feather in her cap as she turns author with her debut book ‘From My Kitchen To Yours’. You know what, she claims to have started cooking out of desperation as she didn’t want her cute kids to say “mujhe mere baap ke khane se pyaar hain” (Honestly, that’s something that even I dread – my husband is a great cook and I don’t even know the a, b, c of cooking).
Vivel, ITC’s leading personal care brand has been my favourite particularly because of the fact that it has unique food-for-skin ingredients which nourish the skin to make it so soft. So when recently I got a mail to attend the “Vivel Skin Love” bloggers meet with the brand ambassador Kareena Kapoor Khan, I was super excited. It was Vivel’s first ever bloggers meet.
Today Vivel soap is recommended & used in every household. About 92% consumers voted for repeat use of the products and it is also India’s most youngest most trusted brand & also the most exciting brand (according to Brand Equity).
With the wedding season and all the thrills & chills of winter approaching, I happened to watch the grand finale of the recently concluded Asian Designer Week held at Hotel Golden Tulip.
Florals, light, breezy blacks, beachy peaches
Blues, blacks & greys
In love with herself & her dreams
Swirling in her caresses of the sky and dreaming.
Reading, laughing & enjoying on the layouts
Happily involved in the sketches of her dreams to fly
Kissing herself in the mirror & bidding goodbye
All about her style statement
And the way she wants to personify clothes
What better way to style yourself with clothes designed by leading lady of Bollywood. B-town has already taken the fashion world by storm for decades gone by and yet to come. So, when we got to know of a new collection called “All About You” by Deepika Padukone, we had to check it out. Deepika has been a fashion inspiration for a lot of us and we have seen her adorn different looks for different movies. From Veronica of Cocktail to Leela of Ram Leela, she has done it all. There has never been a second thought of her fashion sensibilities.
After all these years of close friendship, MS Dhoni and Chris Gayle took their personal camaraderie and passion for the sport to the next level and celebrated their ‘No. 1 Yaari’ by unveiling the new identity for United Spirits’ iconic brand McDowell’s No. 1 Soda and shared inspiring stories of their brotherhood.
With the never ending hustle bustle of the Amazon India Fashion Week which were held in NSIC Grounds at Okhla, I got a sneak peek of the Maybelline Make-up skillful art room done creatively with lots of make-up and rosy dreams for the women of today who dares to dream & makes every dream possible on her own terms bending down every rule.
I could see the live drama with glitterati of designer and the madness of fashion world being brought together under one roof by FDCI & Mr. Sunil Sethi whose birthday happened to be during the Fashion Week days. Such a nice & warm person he is, always full of life & energy. I was more than happy because I was heading towards the show area for the MAYBELLINE show (Official make-up sponsor for AIFWSS16) co-presented by Rohit Gandhi & Rahul Khanna.
