Happy-go-lucky
He is happy…he feels new and this has definitely been a good year for him. Stylish without a tinge of extra effort, candid without any political crutches, actor Sonu Sood is every bit the person we have known except for the number of projects that keep adding weight to his kitty. In Chandigarh, talking about the new look that Godrej Interio gave to his house, Sonu sees dreams turn to reality, in real as well as reel life.
GOOD GOING: Sonu Sood
Seeds of rebellion
Intense disposition, meaningful perspective... journalist and cinematographer by profession, Clément Montfort has already worked with channels like Arte, France 2, France 3 and France 5. In Chandigarh to screen his first documentary titled The Seeds War at Alliance Francaise, he shares notes about the film and more. Co-directed with his colleague, Stenka Quillet, The Seeds War essentially dissects the process of agricultural produce while questioning the relevance of seeds as a commodity or a vital resource to be shared for the benefit of humanity.
Simply Sufi
Some things are destined to be…just like Kavita Seth was destined to be a Sufi singer; only that she took a circuitous route to getting there. As the singer, made famous by Iktara (Wake Up Sid) and Tumhi ho bandhu (Cocktail), gears up for her album Trance with Khusrow's release, she is content that the years of work have paid off.

Let’s go to the movies!
If we had the space, most of us would say yes to a dedicated home theatre. The sound and picture quality can be equally impressive as that of a multiplex. And food, I guess whatever we order mum to cook! But in order to experience those perfect few hours, initial planning of the home theatre is most essential.
Of pain & reflection
Sometimes, creativity flourishes in adversity and lends an expression to the chaos within. Last year, Dr BK Pannu's husband, who was diagnosed with cancer, passed away; and for two months while he was shuttling between hospitals and treatments, Pannu's constant companion remained her worry, sadness and a pen, which translated her emotions into words on to a few sheets of paper. Little did she know that those couplets would form the content of her new book, Parwaz-e-Takhyan, a compilation of poems in Urdu.
