Card game
Planning a wedding is a bigger job than getting married. We can see hands raised in approval! Now that you agree, it is quiet a task - you should also know what makes it one. From finalising the date, going helter-skelter for the venue; not to forget those brain-storming sessions and repeated rounds to card designers! We take it from here - the wedding cards and the entire paraphernalia around it. Card planners from Chandigarh share the new designs and how creativity has moved from a simple leaf to laser-cutting as well as carvings.

Success Mantra
STEP BY STEP
At nineteen, when most of the college kids are talking nineteen-to-the-dozen,
pestering parents for pocket money, emulating teachers, twiddling their thumbs or even acting fresh, Surbhi Garg, proprietor, Kava, was done and over with her graduation, already married and coping with the expectations as well as responsibilities that come with a surname attached to an illustrious business family. She laughs, “At nineteen how much do you know about the ways of the world? I was just out of college and so raw, but my family support and my mother-in-law kept me going.”

Brand new role
In due course of time, Bollywood has created a yardstick for being a hit actor. The formula is simple — success of an actor is equal to the number of brands he or she endorses! You can be a success in the industry, but you don’t ‘arrive’ till you are seen selling some believable or unbelievable products on television. Model-actor Mugdha Godse seems to have scored on this criterion of success — the dusky beauty is endorsing Asian Paints, which brings her to Chandigarh. She will be touring Punjab to promote the brand as well.
Colour your eyes
Want to change your eye colour permanently? You may soon be able to do that, as a US doctor claims to have developed a laser treatment that can turn your brown eyes to blue, forever.
Drape in style
Winter may be cold, but it is surely exciting! And if you’re the one who loves to drape something around the shoulders, then shawls are definitely your calling. A simple option that can transform your entire look; shawls and stoles are the easiest way to keep away winter blues. And as the movie stars endorse these vivacious add-ons, their popularity is definitely on the rise.
STAGE-of-the-art!
The relentless efforts by the Chandigarh Sangeet Natak Akademi to promote theatre in the region have started showing results, with a visible shift in the number and attitude of the audiences. Be it theatre festivals, nukkad nataks by local theatre groups in villages bordering the city or classical music and dance concerts, the response of the audiences has been very encouraging.

The Takeaway
The position of the clubface at impact influences the direction of the ball’s flight. If the clubface is open the ball will slice and if shut it will hook. If the position of the clubface during the backswing is incorrect the player will have to make compensation on the downswing to bring it to square at impact. This compensation would not be easily repeatable and therefore affect the player’s consistency. The only way to improve this is by being in the right position on the takeaway and also on the top of the backswing.

Tattoo-proof yourself
Tattoos and other forms of body art have surged in popularity in the recent years. A tattoo can serve as an expression of individuality, a way of paying tribute to a loved one or simply a form of adornment. Unfortunately, the increase in tattoos brings with it an increase in the complications that arise from them. It has been noted that adverse skin effects can occur immediately after getting a tattoo or can appear years later. Here are certain problems that can arise due to tattoos and also how you can deal with them.
