The art of craft
Fashion designers are doing their bit for the country by promoting traditional crafts and weaves and also supporting the weavers
On the ramp, designers flaunt their celebrity show-stoppers. On the ramp, they proudly present their six months of hardwork. On the same ramp, they take up a social responsibility, balance glamour with a good cause; fashion with facts of the industry. Those who still perceive fashion as the business of frivolity should open pages of pre-Independence history of India. Even when the Constitution of India wasn't drafted and the Fundamental Duties weren't specified, a few enthusiasts considered it their moral obligation to promote the Indian culture.

Arbaaz to step into Sohail's shoes
Comedy Circus Ke Ajoobe on Sony TV is in for a change as Sohail Khan, who is currently seen judging the show with Archana Puran Singh, will be taking a break from the show.
According to a reliable source, Sohail will get busy with the production work of the Salman
