Grooming the bride
Rohit Bal didn't think twice before putting forward his bride in white. The showstopper, Sonam Kapoor, walked off in the colour with the ease of a spirited bird rather than a grounded bride. Shane and Falguni Peacock worked out a rebellious bride in a black gown and a metallic belt. Neha Dhupia admitted to being the Gothic bride for the night and that's where she drew the line. "It took me not more than two minutes to wear it, but I wouldn't wear this dress on my wedding day as it wouldn't let me hug my loved ones because of the belt." Moving on, designer Ritu Beri too brushed aside taboos and painted a white picture.

No child’s play
If you fall in the category of folks who are bothered about children not being rooted today, well, there are others who are trying to make a difference. Maya Gaitonde is one inspiring figure in the field of value education. In Chandigarh, to conduct a seminar on life-skills at the Tribune Model School-29, she is the one to shares life's blessings with others. "I was fortunate in getting spiritual guidance," says Maya, secretary of Bala Mandir Kamaraj Trust, Chennai. She also spearheads Bala Mandir Research Trust.
