If looks could kill…
Wish everyone could manage a pair of aviators inside the auditorium…because when Abhay Deol entered PVR, in Chandigarh on Saturday, wearing his pairs, he blinded almost all his female fans with his infectious smile and gorge-deep dimples!

ARTY AKHTAR
Director, actor, singer, producer...as the multifaceted Farhan Akhtar walks in to promote his latest flick Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara at PVR, Chandigarh, on Saturday, he is all exuberant.

CUT TO CINEMA
If we have too many star kids taking to the silver screen, well, then do you think second-generation singers, we mean Punjabi singers, are far behind? With singing as their 'born-with-passion', this generation sees cinema with a growing fondness.

Language of love
Love for the divine is what reflects in Siddharth Mohan's persona as well as his songs. An engineer turned full-time singer, Siddharth was in Chandigarh on Friday for a Rock Satsang.

SHINING STAR
Charmme Kaur, who is debuting in Bollywood with Bbudha Hoga Terra Baap, feels blessed. "It was just the other day that I was walking home from a gurdwara, when a film coordinator spotted me and Telugu cinema happened," says bubbly Charmme, already an established star in South. Year 2001, Charmme relocated to Hyderabad from Mumbai and hasn't looked back since.

PRETTY IN PINK
A little girl screams 'Katrina' as she spots a life-size cut-out and many more do as the pretty model-turned-actor joins the crowd to promote her latest flick.

Pleasure trip
Why should boys have all the fun? Fine, the premise of Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara is three boys on a road trip to Spain, Egypt and their adventurous activities, but still girls too should have had the license to enjoy.

Millions dollars pad
Pop star Katy Perry and her funnyman husband Russell Brand have splashed out USD 6.5 million on a new pad in Los Angeles. The star couple has purchased a 1920s mansion in Hollywood, which earlier belonged to former National Lampoon chief executive Daniel Laiki.

The rise of the office canteen
Chinese delicacies, Indian delights, comfy sofas, chic interiors, WiFi and a bright atmosphere, corporate canteens are no more any less than plush restaurants. Many organisations still have a dull drab canteen serving the same old daal, roti, aloo and chawal under sweating dead fans by stone-faced staff.

Tone your arms
In the summer season, there is a common question that many people ask, especially women. How to tone up flabby arms? If someone has flabby arms sometimes wearing those T-shirts, strappy dresses or sleeveless tops becomes a real issue.

Finest pieces of jewellery from none other than but Montblanc in rose gold, watches with a mother of pearl dials, Bella Dona, just like its name celebrated the spirit of womanhood at Taj, Chandigarh on Saturday.

The art of giving
Remember the days when you were a kid? Scribbling your name on everything around would make you feel you own it. Growing up taught you the art of giving as life was not just about yourself. When it comes to presenting a gift to a closed one, deciding is a bigger task.

Meet Bollywood’s disco dancers
Item girls are quite common in Bollywood from Malaika Arora Khan's Munni Badnaam, Yana Gupta's Babuji to Katrina Kaif's Sheila Ki Jawani. They are a hit with different age groups. But let's not forget that our Bollywood superstars can also shake a leg. They were remembered for their moves, they were known as disco dancers.


Ignorance is bliss: Liv Tyler
