Punjabi screen, changing contours?
A tweet from Bollywood filmmaker on the sensitivity of Punjabi film Punjab 1984 made all and sundry in Pollywood, and even those who have been watching it from a distance, think as well as talk about it. Punjab 1984, a film that captures a mother-son relationship in the turbulent times of 1984 tweaked the thought process of filmmakers and actors, who feel they have laughed enough and it is time to get down to business!
Punjab 1984

Living life Bigg size
Shweta Tiwari won all the hearts and the title of Big Boss 4. Nothing changed in her life after the reality show, but the perception of people has. "Earlier, people who used to know me as an actor, started calling me beti and felt closer to me," says Shweta. She looks a picture of grace as she flashes her smile.

Monsoon munchies
Just a whiff of rain is enough to pop images of pakoras and meetha poora in your head. And before you know it, there's a fire beneath that waiting wok of refined oil. While the monsoon calls for endless cups of the dear 'chai' and innumerable brews of the beloved coffee, experts believe eating healthy in this particular season is the trickiest. History, however, has evidence of even our ancestors throwing caution to the winds and gorging on oil-laden sweet treats!
Sauve & sporty
Being a celeb husband is a hard job, yet Raj Kundra is doing well. A British citizen, Raj had a successful business before Shilpa Shetty breezed into his life and offered a new lease of life. Well, there is a lot more to this suave man, all endearing except that smack of richness, including a best-seller. In Chandigarh on Monday to launch yet another tempting scheme by Satyug Gold, Raj all occupied about his son's first day at school, talks about life, business and, of course, his wife.
Go-getter
Ace up his sleeve
One has known progressiveness to induce a change that is relevant for evolution and acts as a catalyst for success. Perhaps, that validates its rarity and makes it unique. In our quest to celebrate the achievements of Paramveer Singh Bajwa, a 16-year-old Chandigarh lad who represented India in the Junior Davis Cup, we accidentally discover a rare characteristic-progressiveness.

She’s got the look!
The beauty of the world of style today is that everybody wants to try his or her best. No longer do we depend on inherited beauty, which is the reason why many smart ones are garnering second glances. Simran Kalra, a student of design at the Pearl Academy, is one among them.
