A still from Jine Mera Dil Luteya The producers’ corner
They own the ship, throughout the journey they sit in a corner viewing the direction of the wind; observing the tides, adjusting the sails, and finally when the ship hits the land they quickly roll out a paper to pen down the reactions. Without much navigation, these are the producers, the financial docks of the movie industry.

Cinema scope!
Live life king-size — the phrase might be turning a little cliched, but for Ludhianvis, the meaning gets a new spruce-up every now and then, as the city is embracing the best of the luxuries or should we say, vice-versa!

A fit act
When others of his tribe inhabit the world full of fast food and Facebook, this boy has a totally different take on life. When not acting on stage or in front of the camera, Vansh Bhardwaj works out in a gym. When he recently played Mrinal in A Wife’s Letter in Chandigarh, apart from his acting finesse, his fabulous body won admiration as well.

Maya Krishna Rao Universal appeal
Maya Krishna Rao has played a significant role in bringing about socio-cultural change in the country. Theatre-person, stand-up comedian, Maya’s solo performances make most of the sound, music and silence! In Chandigarh on Friday to participate in the Women Directors’ Theatre Festival, she shares excerpts from her amazing journey. “I started with Kathakali, dance-drama form from Kerala, in my childhood and have grown with it,” says Maya. And as a teenager she related to it differently as compared to when she grew up.

Bollywood biggies walk the TV talk
The small screen is going big. Making the transition from the big screen, mainstream Bollywood producers Vipul Amrutlal Shah, Ritesh Sidhwani and Sanjay Leela Bhansali are planning a bouquet of television shows while Aamir Khan has already set TRPs soaring with Satyamev Jayate.

Ankur Vikal The world is his stage…
Ankur Vikal, a face that you have seen in movies like Slumdog Millionaire, Mango Soufflé, Maqbool, Missed Call and many more, has his hands full with Bollywood as well as Hollywood projects. Says Ankur, “I grew up in Gujarat, studied architecture in Baroda and later joined the National School of Drama in Delhi.” And then finally in 2001, Ankur landed in the city of dreams, Mumbai.

A safari to remember
Figure this, a sleek and smart looking Jaguar is waiting outside your house. You step out in your summer best and hop into the car that takes you to Taj, Chandigarh. Here you are received by the staff and a personal butler who takes you through a gourmet experience.

Floral foot forward!
Tiptoeing in floral footwear may not be an agenda for a few more months to come, but right now there is nothing better than owning a pair of floral fantasy. From daintily clad marigolds to wedge heels adorned with plastic hibiscus to crystal-embellished flowers on sandals, floral patterns are an interesting alternative to the regular footwear. And considering designers’ obsession with all things floral right from top to toe, making a choice to zoom-in on footwear alone is definitely a better way to participate in this upcoming trend.
