Nothing filmy about this one!
The election fever hots up at Panjab University Zoya is amazed by the different world that Jawarharlal Nehru University offered. As time goes by, she falls for a student leader, Jasjeet. And later, we see Zoya spearheading the activities of AICP (All-India Citizen Party)… Well, this a scene from the popular Bollywood film Raanjhanaa.

Bro in B-town
"I was a star earlier and now I am an actor," announces Aditya Sharma, on his visit to The Tribune. This Chandigarh boy you have lately seen on screen as Alia Bhatt's brother in Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhaniya became an actor on an impulse but once in the field he is giving his best.

Short listed
Bollywood may seem to be a far-fetched dream for the ones who don't have a sugar daddy in the industry, but those, who feed their dreams with the flames of passion, find a way anyhow.

Chai ho jaye?
It's difficult to digest that the one, all-pervasive, beverage of India was truly a medicinal drink a few centuries ago. Medicinal value or cultural symbol or financial vantage or necessity — no gup-shup is complete without India's beloved chai!

Power of performance
It all lies between the extreme spectrums of fear and failure. Entrepreneurship is only as far away as celebrating failure. Unfortunately, we'd rather celebrate fear. "This fear of failure curbs entrepreneurial instinct. At a societal level, at a governmental level, we are only programmed to encourage doctors, engineers and the like but not entrepreneurs." As a US-based serial entrepreneur and CEO, Whodini Inc, Ashok Rao, is more than qualified to talk all things business.

CELEB POINT
Seeking Bappa’s blessings!
He came...he saw...he conquered…all the hearts! This year too, as always, my Bappa, who I fondly call Gannu Bappa! Never felt it was religious. I just enjoyed and loved my connect with him. Like an elder brother who comes home on an annual visit to see if everything is fine.

Time to party!
For all those who have been fancying clubbing Bollywood style, this one is a brand new party anthem and guess who is adding the glamour quotient? Hail! It's the Bollywood fashionista Sonam Kapoor and Pakistani heartthrob Fawad Khan in the song Abhi Toh Party Shuru Hui Hai. The song is sung, composed and written by Badshah — he also has a special appearance in the video — while Aastha has given the female vocals. If you are not still dancing to this anthem, well, its time you hear it from those who are!
