Keep emotions at bay
When at work, it’s quintessential to keep personal talk to the minimum and thereby maintain a dynamic balance
A co-worker eternally talking about his new born (and what a genius he is), another always boasting of his academic credentials, yet another on how difficult her would-be-in-laws are…well, though everyone harps on professionalism at the work place, it's not always possible to split our professional and personal lives!
A recent survey says, "Swedes are breaking down the barriers between their work and private lives by showing more emotion on the job."
Kangana is never wrong
Actress Kangana Ranaut has no qualms in admitting that she is stubborn and that she never accepts her mistakes.
"I don't accept my
mistakes. I never say I'm wrong, not even if I'm hanged," she confessed on UTV Stars'
show Live My Life.
Aamir sets a new trend again…
Aamir Khan can do anything as he is the one whom people follow because of his message-filled movies and now after getting a child through surrogacy and IVF, Aamir Khan has sent a great message in real life too.
Ready for B-town!
Tom Cruise has said that he has seen a few Hindi movies (though he cannot point the names) and that he would love to be part of one. We wonder if Bollywood will be able to afford him, though as the dashing superstar makes millions of dollars per movie!
Bollywood dreams
National award winning actor Mithun Chakraborty, who has been in the industry for almost 36 years, feels that only talent that can help an individual carve a niche in Bollywood.
Space issues
Director Kunal Kohli had trouble finding space for shooting a qawwali that's filmed on Shahid and
Priyanka. Kunal needed ample space to put up a set for the next schedule of his film, but he couldn't find it here so had to scurry to Madh Island to build his set.
It’s a steal for Sofia
Filmmaker Sofia Coppola is reportedly planning to make a movie about the young burglars who raided the Hollywood homes of Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan and Orlando Bloom.

Patridge.
Guetta on hall of fame

Suit-ed for men!
With the arrival of winter, here’s checking out the latest trends in suits
Fashion trends for men are greatly different from women, but they do exist! Though their cycle of clothing moves slower than women, the style is definite and stays for long. And this holds true for men suits as well.
For long, it has been all about slim and skinny cuts for men but as the fall 2011 fashion rolls along, though skinny won’t be out, the suit statement is all about a cut that compliments the male physique, a suit that broadens the shoulders and trims the waist, highlighting an exercised body.

Carefully casual
Every person has a sense of style. Yet there are only few who’d attract the second glances, who have the power to make the camera go zoom on them. It could be the tousled hair, it could be the torn jeans. Our this week’s
face in the crowd Pallavi, MSc student, Panjab University, loves trying every conceivable piece of clothing possible and yet retain her individuality.

Ray of hope

Live like a man
As if beating up a contestant while shooting her latest reality show Steal Ur Girlfriend for Channel [V] wasn’t enough! Kashmera Shah, who anchors it in true-blue chick-flick style, has now turned into a man for it. Yes! You heard it right! Kash has disguised herself as a guy for the latest episode of the show. Ask her why and she shoots, “Sometimes you have to think like the enemy to win the war. I am not interested in small relationship battles, but more in knowing what makes men think and behave in a certain way. Moreover, some girls are pretty stubborn and can only be convinced by men. Hence, I had to disguise myself to fool one such girl and give her the much-needed advice from a ‘man’.
 Inspired act
We are sorry but the music of Don 2 seems dull. Nothing has caught on. The movie might be fun because of Farhan Akhtar and SRK's mean streak but we think it will be a rehash of many Hollywood blockbusters and the Mission: Impossible series. So many portions look lifted.
Mean streak: Shah Rukh Khan in Don 2
