Our avian guest
All the way from Hyderabad, four Emus have found home in Abninder Singh Grewal’s heart and farm
It’s a fascinating world of artifacts  where living and non-living join in to create an old world charm of a rustic village. In the middle of Industrial area, Mohali there lies a place that is alive with twittering of birds and fluttering of feathers. Yes, you read it right an avian ecstasy in middle of thumping machine sounds and blurring industrial units, courtesy Abninder Singh Grewal, owner Gary Arts in Phase VII, Industrial area, Mohali and an avid bird lover.
A day-old these Emus make quite a picture.

Have this chance
The innocent teen Disney drama, which was born some three years ago on small screen, has finally graduated to 70 mm. And boy! The big budget only pumps up the grandeur.
High School Musical 3: Senior Year, the latest installment of the HSM franchise, generates the same extravaganza, with practically the same crew, as its two hugely successful predecessors were able to create amongst its fan base.
It’s the last year at school before the class finds its own ways in the big, harsh world.

Mock tales
Crying for comedy
There are days when you wake
up in the morning, trying to remember the last time you laughed, seriously
and genuinely laughed. And if in that moment of truth, another realisation
strikes you that suddenly you don’t have any reason or any person
accountable for some heartfelt light moments in your life, then well, like
always there is one great invention of the modern world that comes handy,
television. And so with it comes your so-called dose of laughter, read the
umpteen comedy shows that are on air.
Kabhie haan, kabhie na
Madhur Bhandarkar has denied that he would be directing a TV serial , but has admitted that his production company has undertaken
a project
According to a report published in a leading Mumbai daily, Bollywood directors Vikram Bhatt, Mahesh Manjrekar, Ashok Pandit, and Shriram Raghavan apart from Bhandarkar have been approached by a TV channel to direct serials for them.“I will not be directing the short stories. My company Bhandarkar Entertainment Pvt Ltd is involved in making serials and ads too and the same department will be taking care of it under the able supervision of Ashok Pandit and Raman Kumar - the two are from the TV industry and understand the intricacies involved in making serials,” Bhandarkar said.
 Slow but steady
From fashion to films, Rajniesh Duggall has proved to be a smart contender
The handsome Rajniesh Duggall is not new to female adulation or the glamour world. Given his impressive credentials, winner of Grasim Mr India in 2003 and the first runner up in Mr. International, this hunky model made a slow but impressive move towards tinsel town. Making his presence felt with his debut movie, 1920, Rajniesh is all geared up for a long Bollywood innings. Breezing through the city for a personal trip to Pathankot and
Amritsar, the model and actor chats up exclusively with Lifestyle. From modelling to music videos to films, it's been a been-there-done-that experience for
Rajniesh. "I have always been lucky to be amongst the best and it's a great feeling to be able to do so much work and learn more everyday," he says.
Art and artiste
Marriages are made in heaven and solemnised on earth. Veritably it applies to the couple of tabla maestro Deepak Chakraborty and her life and music partner kathak danseuse Rupa Chakraborty of
Kolkata. The couple is in city to perform at the Pracheen Kala Kendra on Sunday evening.
Clay clues
Clay, cutter, pencil, little basket, colours and the paraphernalia strewn carelessly…No, its not a bunch of eager beaver kids playing Doll’s house by the beach side, but students at Jaspal Bhatti’s MAD Arts, at Mohali learning the very technical and basic part of animation, clay modelling. Param Shiv, who was here for the three-day workshop tells us about the subject in length and breadth.

Matka chowk
New age dhabas
Driving long distances in Northern
Indian means eating in dhabas – at least for those who love to
go places driving. Dhabas are a quintessential part of G.T Road
and almost as old as transportation by road itself.
