Family function
A jacket pulled over tightly, layers of warm clothes blocking the entry to chilly winds that he would face in Manali, Bollywood's versatile singer Mika is all set for one of grandest live performances ever. He stresses on the last word 'ever' and explains why he stops for a brief halt in Chandigarh.
"This party is going to create history and I am probably the first singer to be paid Rs 1.25 crore for a three-hour performance," shares Mika. Reason enough to keep warm!
Par Excellence
Posture perfect
Being in an athletic posture is probably as important as a good grip. To have a repeatable and powerful golf swing the body must be in a correct position with the correct angles and distribution of weight. A good posture helps in maintaining the spine angle through the swing, allows the club to swing on plane, helps the body create a powerful rotatory action and maintains balance through the swing. A loss of posture leads to poor impact and erratic shots.
Weight watch
Nutty choice
Although energy dense and therefore high in calories, nuts and seeds can in fact be beneficial for weight loss.
Due to the high calorie content, it is important to keep portion sizes small if weight loss is your goal. A small handful of nuts per day is sufficient to provide you with nutritional benefits and fight off hunger, without consuming too many calories. Not only this, but nuts and seeds are packed full of nutrients, making them a health super food, and hugely more nutritious than other popular snack foods.
Designer’s den
Clothes reflect one's personality and also one's state of mind. It is thereby important that one wears what truly defines them. At the newly opened Autumn Gallery, Sector 17, Radhika Nanda, the owner, explains the fundamental offerings of the gallery, which serves as a platform for various fashion designers to exhibit their works at the venue. "The main criteria, however, remains the quality of the product," she says.
