O-some spoof!
 Shell-shocked,
glued, awestruck... pause...pause. What on earth is he doing here? Is
this for real? Should someone alert the police immediately? No, this
couldn't be him. Even as our brain coins permutations and combinations,
a man with salt and pepper hair barges in to put the entire commotion to
rest. "Hey, this is your Osama," says Abhishek Sharma, the man
with salt and pepper hair. You must be kidding! Twins separated at birth
or a riddle for the eye? "Trust me, I have spent years in making
Osama," Abhishek adds with a puckish grin.

Original notes
In the city, electronica band Midivel Punditz discuss 'their' kind of music
 You aren't in for B-town music or tracks composed in Beverly Hills when it's specifically mentioned on the invite —"Midivel Punditz will perform". So there we were and the event was launch of the restaurant 'Punjab Grill' at Sector-17 and the Punditz were at their job within no time!
Tapan and Gaurav played the music that was apt for the kind of bash it was. "We are playing Indian music on electronic beats," says
Tapan. The other way of defining their kind of music is: "It's original music. We don't remix Bollywood numbers or twist the notes of certain Shakiras or Lady
Gagas," explains Gaurav.
Clash of titans
FIFA fever touches its crescendo on Sunday night when La Furia Roja (Spain) takes on Oranje (Netherlands). With giants Brazil, Argentina, Italy, England, Portugal and Germany out already, loyalties sure are divided. Oracle Octopus Paul, from Sea Life Aquarium Oberhausen, Germany, has predicted that Spain will lift the cup. However, his less-admired fellow psychic Mani Parrot from Singapore has chosen Netherlands. We check out how city celebs view this showpiece clash.
A day of luxury
Not all journeys are meant to reveal hidden secrets. Some are just for leisure
The only hitch - what if the plane crashes; what if there is some disruptive element sitting next to me in the flight? Thank god for small and big mercies! I landed safely at the Indira Gandhi International Airport to begin a journey, which I admit did not lead to any revelations. Not all the journeys are meant to reveal hidden secrets. Sometimes they are meant to give us the much-needed breather. The trip to Jaypee Palace, Agra, can be slotted into a one-day breather!
Punjabi tadka
Eat like a king, pay like peasant. Well, not exactly, but in Punjabi context, the eating has always been royal, rich and lavish. Paying, well, we really never bothered about that. In a city that loves its butter chicken and dal
makhani, another Punjabi cuisine restaurant is definitely good news. And so, Punjab Grill, a signature resturaunt by Jiggs Kalra opened in city with the usual, beer, barbeque and a lot of
tadka. And of course, the who's who were present to add their bit too.
