Selling point
Those who haven’t seen or heard him speak his heart out would probably get startled when Prahlad Kakkar talks about the new condom range — Red Riding Hood — that he has launched in three different sizes! If this makes you uneasy, find a spot to fix your gaze and if it doesn’t since you know this is ‘normal’ for Prahlad
Kakkar, move along with him as he talks about anything and everything you want to know.
“So, we are not talking about sex and violence here,” he looks around if there are any takers for it. Sans his trademark hat and cigar literally embedded in his lips, the long-haired ad guru can spice up any conversation.

On a lyrical note

A ready platform comes at the cost of enormous pressures and each performance is likely to get coloured with great expectations.

Bundles of joy
When things are meant to be, all it takes is a question to possess them. "We went to our friends place in Doon School and saw a lovely English Mastiff. It was only a matter of expressing our desire and they offered him to us as they found it difficult to take care of him," shares Rumeena Singh. That is the story behind six-year-old Hannibal. Late acquisition, nevertheless, entitled them to joys of first ownership.
HEART talk
Wait and watch
I am 27 years old and working in a private bank as an investment banker. Off late, for no apparent reason, my boss has started harassing me. He tries to take a dig at me all the time. I tried to ask him why but he says he doesn't want me in this office.

Baby bliss for Imran and Avantika
The 2013 may not have been a great year professionally for actor Imran Khan. But personally he has much to look forward to. Imran's wife Avantika is three months pregnant and is expected to deliver the couple's first baby in June, next year.
It is believed that Avantika's pregnancy was discovered when they checked in to get her tested for dengue.
Imran's uncle Aamir Khan too has been informed about this good news and reports suggest that Aamir's wife Kiran has asked the couple not to shop much as she would pass on her son Azaad's stuff to Imran and
Avantika.
