It’s showtime again!
Sometimes, when buried under time, even the most memorable performances need to be recalled. Even though her roles stretch back to serials like Sea Hawks and A Mouthful of Sky, it is the adorable character of Heena that gets the bells ringing.

Twice the melody
Aditya Balani and Suhail Yusuf Khan Suhail grew up following totally different routes to music. While Adi listened to film music and played on his keyboard, Suhail found inspiration from the sound of sarangi he grew up listening to. Following his uncles, Kamal Sabri and grandfather Ustad Sabri Khan, Suhail picked up the sarangi. Adi pursued music and went to learn formally at Berklee College of Music, Boston, US.

CELEB POINT
Ambarsar da love
Ambarsar de papad ve main khaandi na... That's the music video I was a part of. It had become a household name. Ambarsar. My Amritsar. My birthplace. Darbar saheb where my ma would go and do sewa. She said, "You are a blessing me and your dad got from Darbar sahib. We really prayed to have you."

Health gurus advocate we should have heaps of fresh veggies and fruit. Health gurus surely know! The trouble is we cannot really consume enough so willingly, where smoothies and juicing come to our rescue.
