OR centuries, womenfolk have taken out time from their household chores to converge around a huge convex iron tava in the Golden Temple to make fresh parshada for the sangat as part of the community kitchen or langar.

Salman, Vivek script a Bollywood masala
THE Salman Khan-Vivek Oberoi face off is much similar to the script of a Bollywood potboiler. It has all the ingredients that ensure box office success — a beautiful woman, a macho man who can’t get over her and a successful youngster who shares a cosy relationship with her. The inebriated former boyfriend (villain) calls up the other man (hero), abuses him and threatens to kill him in true Bollywood style. The hero takes up the challenge, waits for the villain for nearly 45 minutes outside his residence. But, the latter chickens out, calls up the hero, tells him, "I’m tired. I want to sleep. We will fight some other day."
