Breeding the best
When eight out of ten people are taking an Alsatian or a Labrador or a Pomeranian (and now a pug) out for a walk, there's reason why you'd want to flaunt an out-of-the-ordinary canine counterpart. The breeds may have been rare, but the preference for rare breeds has never been a rare phenomenon! After all, it's flattering to be flooded with questions on your pet, right from its breed to its name.

Live to eat
They say the way to a person's heart is through stomach and while everyone craves for yummy, mouth smacking food, some enjoy cooking themselves and some love ordering meals. No matter what, we all have our own favourite comfort food. We spoke to few actors about their comfort food and what dish is closest to their heart.

You wanted a heroine for the item song in Delhi Belly but now you have done the song yourself with Anusha
Dandekar.Yes, I wanted a heroine but none of them answered my calls and it became very difficult to match schedules. So I decided to do it myself. Kiran wanted me to do the song and you guys (the media) had also suggested that I do the song. It is the first time that I have done an item song in my career and I had a lot of fun going all out with the steps and look.

 l A potpourri of colours is an instant hit in the rains. Bright and frozen hues spell the colour trend of the season. Florals are a rage this season.
l Dark colours are best when it's raining. They can be carried off well even if you're wet. l White and beige though look cool on a hot humid day but should be avoided in rains as muck can
spoil your complete outfit. |

Chocoholics beware!
Attention chocoholics, this is a warning. One spoonful of this chocolate mousse and you will be hooked forever. This is what I call a chocolate pudding for grown ups, a simple, easy yet elegant dessert. While it uses only a few ingredients, chocolate, egg whites, butter and cream, its chocolate flavour is rich and its texture is silky smooth, and foamy. Foamy is an apt description as "mousse" is French for 'froth' or 'foam'.
The foodies
Whiff of South
If you want genuine flavour of the South Indian variegated cuisine other than the routine idlis and dosas, then Punj Spice in Park Plaza in Ludhiana is the best place to have a meal any time in this whole week.
