Sea of vibrance
The world knows her as the voice behind the raunchy Choli Ke Peeche Kya. They probably also know her stellar acts in movies like Jodhaa Akbar and West is West, but singer-actor-composer Ila Arun who in her own words, "I am doing many things" is also a very serious theatre person.
In Chandigarh with her play Mareechika, it's this passion that spills forth. So she and the famed Norwegian playwright Henrik
Ibsen, on whose literary work Lady From The Sea her play is based, may seem like polarised extremes. But as the woman who has breathed a new life into Ibsen's tale, she stands proud.

ACTING on instinct
Actors Aakash Bharadwaj, Manish Khanna and Bharti Sharma from Mumbai, who made a brief stop-over at Chandigarh, had two common things to share with us. One they were on their way to Manali for a common project, and two they are in the industry with no background in acting whatsoever!

KING-size fun
You don't need to wait for an invitation to enjoy precious moments in life; good times generally come calling by! For Kings XI Punjab's team captain Adam Gilchrist, players David Hussey and Piyush Chawla, lighter moments come off the field during the making of Kingfisher television commercial at the JW Marriot on Wednesday.

The enigma called Hans Raj
He is still the most grounded singer ever and despite the accolades and fame he has received in India and on international platform, Sufi singer Hans Raj Hans still has a child-like excitement, and butterflies in stomach when he goes for a live performance. His number Eh jo sili sili aandi hai hawa touched hearts. The introvert singer reveals another side to himself.

Baisakhi bounty!
When a festival draws near, I'm already drooling in anticipation, conjuring up some delicious goodies I can cook! Baisakhi is round the corner, so here's my excuse already! We have bid adieu to hot halwas and syrupy gulab-jamuns. Now, as we turn on the coolers, we automatically desire cooler sweets too!
