Post the cult film Sadda Haq, rather than the pressure, Kuljinder S Sidhu feels the responsibility to continue with cinema having a purpose and not jump onto the bandwagon of romantic comedies.

After working for a few years in the television industry, actors get used to slogging for fourteen hours a day. They crib about the unrealistic shoot schedules but then how many of them quit television for easier jobs? Isn't fame really addictive? At the most, actors will hop shows or shift to reality show genre but quitting doesn't feature in the scheme of things.

Master Chef
Get cracking!
Sometimes I'm in the mood to bake a simple yet delicious treat for the family and of course myself, but don't want a half-mile long list of ingredients to go chasing. Cheese crackers is one such delight which is perfect to nibble on anytime, anywhere! They are great at a party with a yoghurt dip, or with a cuppa. You can add chili flakes to give them heat.

Ash goes analytical
In the backdrop of crumbling marriages in Bollywood, actress Aishwarya Rai Bachchan feels that it's unfair to limit and judge relationships. "I don't think it is fair to get judgmental and limit relationships or strengths or inability to hold themselves it to showbiz. What happens in society is each to his own. What would be fair and respectful is belief in people to allow them to live their lives and finding strength in choices they make," the actress said in response to a query on effects of showbiz on marital life.
 Sweet success
