Pan(t)ache
This season sees the return
of trousers with narrow legs, peg-top waists and the
dhoti
pants
It's winter finally and it's
trousers that you are looking for. So, go retro thrift or buy a new pair.
And, whatever option you choose, will be a fashion statement in itself as
the market is ever evolving, finding new designs and silhouettes and
initiating a trend. Though the secret to select
a perfect pair of trouser lies in its comfort , we suggest tune into the
best of patterns whilst keeping an eye on the price tag and quality. And,
since this is the year of wearing anything you fancy, the noticeable trend
is the return of trousers with narrow legs and peg-top waists and dhoti
pants, but these all sit happily beside the wide-leg trousers which
are still in demand.
AB's the best
A ghost, an eccentric
theatre actor or a flamboyant genie, Amitabh Bachchan has done quite a few
over-the-top roles and not delivered big hits in four years. But for
filmmakers, the megastar is still a phenomenon they can't wait to sign on.
"I would love to cast him for all my films. I just hope that I keep
getting ideas where I can fit him," said R. Balakrishnan, director of
his forthcoming film
Paa. Relasing December 4, Paa features
Amitabh as a progeria patient.

Negatively positive
Ranbir
Kapoor may have gained heartthrob status with his "lover boy"
roles but the actor is excited about his upcoming film
Rajneeti
,
where in his own words, he plays "a mature man" for the first
time. "I have usually acted
in coming-of-age dramas or done lover boy roles in my films so far but 'Rajneeti'
is my first mature role. It is a dark political thriller and also my first
character with grey shades," Ranbir said in an interview. The film, which is inspired
by Mahabharata, is a satire on the Indian political system and has
a formidable ensemble cast in Ajay Devgn, Nana Patekar, Arjun Rampal,
Katrina Kaif, Vivek Oberoi and Manoj Bajpai.

the Maoists - and says he is inspired to do better work. "Winning an award at
such a big film festival is a big high for me as an actor. Now I really
want to do good films and work harder and better. The film is on Naxalites
(Maoists)...," Suniel said.
Sweet November
No scientific research or data is required to prove that November is the most romantic month of the year
The warm winters, a walk on the sidelanes,
holding hands and the sparks flowing through the cool breeze. The month of
November brings in the winter chill and with it comes the possible thrill
of romance. No scientific research or data is required to put any
substance of proof on this theory of sweet November.
Dillogical !
Rumour of a rumour
Hey, psst psst... you know
Katrina Kaif and Ranbir Kapoor are an item now. Oh, she's got a husband
too, at least that's what an MLA from Indore claims. Poor Sallu, the guy's
got a real hard luck. Deepika Padukone is no less on bad luck either.
After playing musical chairs with her alleged suitors (Nihar Pandya, Dhoni,
Yuvraj Singh), she finally had got used to the possibilities of becoming
Mrs. Kapoor, but thanks to a Kat crossing her path, she is now busy trying
to sort out this
ajab-gajab
mess.

Pretty painful
A new study by Canadian scientists has shown that focusing on a pretty image can ease pain. According to the study, negative and positive emotions have a direct impact on pain.
"Emotions - or mood - can alter how we react to pain since they're interlinked," says lead author Mathieu Roy, who completed the study as a Université de Montréal PhD student and is now a post-doctoral fellow at Columbia University.
