he took and every effort he made.

the ‘in’ side
Climb in comfort
Staircases are an important feature in any house that has more than one floor. Usually people are unaware of certain guidelines that must be kept in mind while designing stairs.

Fool-ish fantasy!
A mango is like a little genie. Once released from the proverbial lamp, it can tantalise and create magic with its sharp, acid punch and sweet juice! Ice-creams and trifles are the common mango creations but ‘fools’ are often left neglected by the wayside. As all fools do? A fool is a pureed fruit, simply folded into a luscious whipped cream.
Time for some nostalgia
The Chandigarh Lalit Kala Akademi will screen a film titled Nostalgic Longing. Directed by Laurent Bregeat, the film is based on eminent artist and writer Ram Kumar.
Ram Kumar’s art, which has proceeded through an alternation of joyous expressivity and brooding reticence, plays out a crucial polarity of emphasis in the context of Indic culture: that between samsara, the sensual participation in the world of events, and nirvana, the ascetic blowing-out of desire.

When reel meets real
You may have heard of actors being inspired by various people and adapting nuances from their personalities while playing characters on screen. But it is rare that an artiste plays a role which is very near to her own personal life!
One such character being unfolded on the silver screen is that of Rakul Preet in her maiden film Yaariyaan; the directorial debut of T-Series’ head honcho Bhushan Kumar’s wife Divya Kumar.
Rakul, a mathematics graduate, who has studied financial management in real life, plays a nerd in the film; one who’s very good with numbers.
