Energy unplugged
Ideas run like Ferraris in his mind; there are no traffic lights, no signals to be followed, just one check point where all thoughts come to a standstill and it is called music zone! Arjun Vagale, of the four-member popular band Jalebee Cartel, channelises and directs all possible as well as impossible ideas through this zone. It is an end and means to everything. In Chandigarh to perform for the first time at the Smirnoff Next, he talks with lightening speed. Music is something that runs in his blood; no matter how philosophical, the band member lives every word of it. Here, he is unplugged and uncut!

Uncommon talent
You can easily mistake him for just about any other man, working nine-to-five, waiting patiently at the bus stop, buying vegetables, sitting in the balcony and smoking away to glory! But actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui is not somebody who can be easily ignored. Certainly not after his bombastic role in Gangs Of Wasseypur 2. While he was doing blink-and-miss and a little more evident roles in movies like Black Friday, New York, Paan Singh Tomar and Kahaani, Nawaz struck a sixer with Gangs Of Wasseypur 2. And now, you bet he cannot be passed off as yet another man standing on the bus stop!

A ride, a journey
To soak in the sound and sight of fifty thousand bikes at one go is quite an experience! And if the bike happens to be a Harley Davidson, the sight becomes a spectacle. Harpreet Sandhu, lawyer, Panjab and Haryana High Court, tries to put into words the experience called Harley Davidson, Europe 2012 Rally at Rudesheim, Germany. Driving a Harley Davidson D, even on the parallel road, was quite an experience.

Collars up

And for fashionistas who have their shopping bags ready for a brand new wardrobe, the autumn/winter collection is all about shapes, ornate fabrics, embellishments, bright hues, swathe of tweed, some Perspex heels and a pair of what we're now calling investment trousers. And yes, collars are going to peep out in every form, be it in a top, shirt, sweater or even a dress.
