Get trendy, officially
The author of Seeing Through Clothes Anne Hollander can spin a tale on the functions of clothes - they suggest, they persuade, they connote, they insinuate and they can indeed lie, she says. Now with the stakes being so high, you don't want to go wrong with anything remotely related to 'clothes', especially when you are quickly going through the unmindful process of selecting the ones you want to wear to work.
This is where you need to put a triple caution sign. Step back for a moment, open your closet and scan your office-wear. Black and beige formal pants, crisp white and black shirts, a thin leather belt, a 'dignified' churidaar… is that all? Reminding you of the stakes and importance of clothes, you can do better. We understand you mean business at work, but who said smart clothing interferes? Bring casualness with a good layer of sophistication in your office dressing, pick some bright colours…a pantsuit is not for everyone and so are pencil skirts!
Dress circle
How you are perceived to a large extent depends on what you are wearing! "We are not very rigid or outrightly neat with our office dressing. We have a bit of casualness in office-wear as well," shares Prabhdip Brar, assistant professor UIFT, Punjab University, who zeroes on accessorisation as the key to smart dressing. It, however, starts with the hair being in place. "If you have long hair, iron them or tie them neatly. A thin layer of make-up on your face, smart office-wear and you are ready to communicate your ideas," she adds. Instead of a pencil skirt, Prabhdip suggests a shirt and a trouser for a corporate dressing. If you have to stick by the colour code, throw in style and brightness through accessories. A black shirt could go with a fuschia pink or green neck piece. Tuck in the shirt if you have the figure and avoid if you don't. "A bright scarf draped nicely around the neck ups the style quotient. Sari looks elegant; at the workplace if you don't want less of a skin show substitute the blouse with a short kurti with slits. A bandhgala red kurta with a black and white sari can make for a stylish wear," shares Prabhdip. For those who don't have to slip into the 'formality' of dressing, she adds, "Linen pyjamas with kurtas according to body shape are pretty ideal. Not everyone can carry a suit and look good in it."
Traditionally yours
Freshen up your office-wear with some colour. Renu Tandon, a Delhi-based fashion designer, says to work in an office you have to bring in the right kind of energy as well. "I can't imagine a high-up in a company packed in a suit in this kind of weather," she laughs. Churidaars are her pick for office work. "A khadi white churidaar with a yellow dupatta brings in freshness, style and maintains the sophistication of the office." Even if you are hell-bent on wearing a trouser, replace it the shirt with a kurta. "This is where you can create a faux pas, the kurta should not be embellished like that for a party; keep it simple." For Renu, a small thing like a rubber band in floral design can bring in casualness and smartness to the office-wear.
Colour code
Of course, you don't need to look like you are handling the entire office on your own or pep up your office dressing with jarring colours. Adds fashion designer Salim Asgar Ally, "Even in office you need to be in control of colours; opt for more muted ones but at the same time you can throw in a bright element, maybe something like a bright shrug." Salim opines that formal can be made to look stylish. "If you are wearing long sleeves, you can up-turn the cuff with lace; instead of a pencil skirt, choose a skirt which tapers from the knee. And to top it up, branded shoes can set you apart.

Social angle
Whatever the men say or do, women have the power, they are the creators and the society must respect that…is the theme of Naari Chakra, the first feature film by twenty-four-year-old Dipanshu Dang.
A mechanical engineer, Dipanshu held the first screening of his ambitious project at his alma mater Chitkara University, Rajpura, Punjab. He juggles many roles for this film — an actor, director, producer as well writer all rolled into one. With three documentaries and a music video, Dipanshu spent two years in Mumbai restoring vintage cars and saved money to fund his film. Why forced prostitution for a theme? “Social causes are a theme I feel responsible towards. I have earlier worked on Kalpana: Save the Girl Child and what happened in December shook me as any Indian. I want to pass this strong message to society that it’s time we respect and value our women.” Sandhya (played by Nivvy Randhawa) is forced into prostitution, how his Army officer brother (played by Dipanshu Dang) rescues her and the healing on mental as well as spiritual level makes for the plot of the film. Rajesh Sharma, an NSD-pass-out plays Zarfan Raushi, the negative lead. “How she fights back and gets back at society is Sandhya’s story,” says Dipanshu. This young filmmaker is a keen follower of Anurag Kashyap, Vidhu Vinod Chopra, Rakesh Roshan, Martin Scorsese, Christopher Nolan, and he has learnt the art seeing his films. “I am a learner still and hoping to join a course to get that professional edge,” says Dipanshu who dreams of working with them one day. “I would love to make a film on the lines of Inception, I wrote my first story after watching this film; The Dark Knight, I absolutely adore Joker, have made a spoof video on him; Gangs of Wasseypur, Koi Mil Gaya and Quentin Tarantino’s Pulp Fiction are also my favourite.” Before being able to approach the big names in the film world, it’s important to showcase talent and through his limited budget and knowhow Dipanshu is out to do that. Films are the passion with this young guy and he is fortunate that his mother, a lawyer, stands by him in his endeavour. Independent filmmaking rather lies low in India but with Bollywood giving a chance to young filmmakers, Dipanshu is looking forward to being part of the
bandwagon. mona@tribunemail.com

Beautiful Beat
Playing music at hip parties in different cities and acting in commercial films, Shilpi Sharma is leading a life that many just dream of. The best part is that she didn’t have to struggle for it at all!
In Chandigarh, to make the party-goers dance to her tunes this weekend at Buzz-17, Shilpi admits that she never thought of turning a DJ ever. “I went to Mumbai for college and had these friends at night clubs. I would stand at the DJ’s console and dance like crazy, which is when people asked me to give DJing a try. I duly did and here I am,” Shilpi opens up the conversation. She loves DJ Clement and learnt the tricks of the trade from him. “I play his style,” says the glamorous girl who finds that being a female is a positive in this profession. “You know I can play a little raw sometimes; no need for me to be perfect, for half of the time people are more focused on looking at me rather than listening to my music,” she giggles. What made her foray into acting? “Well, I was into modeling; the director saw my pictures and the very next day I was flown to Switzerland for shooting,” she says. Some South Indian flicks and having worked in Style, Jo Bole SO Nihaal and some more movies, Shilpi is happy dividing her time between music and movies. mona@tribunemail.com
Her favourites list
If you are fond of Bollywood numbers, you are sure to find these five songs when Shilpi Sharma is at the console these days:

Go-getter
For those who challenge their limits and push the boundaries of various possibilities, life brings a gamut of choices. Born and brought up in Chandigarh, Harjasleen Malvai studied in Carmel Convent School until tenth, after which she moved on to do the International Baccalaureate Program at the Mahindra United World College of India (MUWCI). A residential school for Classes 11 and 12 with about 250 students from over 50 different countries, this place is not just an academic institution, but also a bio-reserve. MUWCI is one of the 12 schools, initiated by United World College movement, to promote peace and sustainability through a group of motivated young people. This intense program challenged her in many ways, which included, living on her own amidst nature and all its creatures that there were in the bio-reserve.
"Community engagement is a vital part of my life and I used to teach science to the village kids every week at UWC. Also, I was part of an NGO called Saathi," says Harjasleen, who loves to read, especially philosophy and mathematics, exercise, listen to music and has started learning sitar lately. "I will now be going to Brown University (most probably, because I am open to all possibilities) to pursue my bachelors degree in mathematics, for which I am receiving a scholarship from the university as well as the Davis UWC Scholars Program," she gushes. We catch up with her for a conversation and the pretty damsel talks about her academic career and more… Motivational factor
"Scoring an edge over my peers has never been a motivational factor for me. I want to learn for the sake of learning," says Harjeasleen while adding, "We all have our own way of making sense of the world, and I like to do that through learning. I thrive on pushing myself and this is what inspires me. It is difficult at times, but my parents and teachers help me to overcome even the most difficult challenges." Feathers in the cap
Recently, Harjasleen received the Tata Scholarship offer from Cornell University, which was awarded to her by Rattan Tata himself. She is one among the seven Indian students in the undergraduate program at Cornell. Also, Northwestern University offered her a scholarship in their Integrated Science Program, which takes 25-30 students every year. The varsity made an exception of making this scholarship offer valid to her until next year too. Harjasleen has also won two national-level bronze medals and various state-level medals in table tennis. She also had a design patent published in the Indian Journal of Patents and was awarded with the National Talent Search Scholarship in a brief stint at Infosys in their "Catch Them Young" programme. She has also won various prizes in quiz and science congress competitions. Flipside of being an achiever
"My parents acknowledge my effort as my reward and my peers are supportive too. I am lucky to have received the right kind of guidance and advice. What often happens, however, is that the standards I set for myself are too high, and when I do not meet them, it leads to personal disappointment. Then again, what is life without a bit of challenge?" she smiles. Words of wisdom
Passivity bogs us down. If you learn to question what is told to you and your own self in a constructive way, it will inevitably lead you to positive action. This action is the key to any achievement, both for an individual and for a community.

A delightful bowl
Innovation is the name of the game when it comes to the hospitality sector. Though most of the eateries in Chandigarh chase the idea of inventing and reinventing, they are barely able to click with the masses. However, with Peddlers re-launching Purple Rice, there is much avenue for interaction. Its new quick bowl concept accommodates customised dishes that the customers can choose from.
"Considering that Purple Rice has always been associated with the idea of a fine dining restaurant, it has always attracted the elites. Now that we have re-launched the restaurant, our target is not just the corporate elites, but also the masses and the students," begins Vipul Dua as he attempts to define the concept. The deep lavender hue dominates the ambiance, but the wooden shelf, that marked the interiors of the Purple Rice then, still holds the sentiments of the past, as it rests at the entrance of its new, renovated avatar. "The quick service restaurant offers a quick bowl menu, where a customer can choose the ingredients of their dish and all they need to do is tick mark the options given in the quick bowl menu. The bowl includes prawn (Rs 299), fish (Rs 279), lamb, chicken (Rs 239) and vegetarian (Rs 199) palette," informs Vipul. Apart from this, the restaurant also offers a la carte menu. "In non-vegetarian, our specialties are chilli pepper fish, hot chilli prawns and spice lamb and in vegetarian, stir fried Chinese greens and exotic vegetables in black pepper sauce. Also, the chocolate spring rolls, litchi wontons and darsan cake are a must try," he adds. The walls of the restaurant don as many as five double meaning graphic illustrations, which read, "Fork you" and "What did the spoon say to the fork? "If we fork now, we'll spoon later", to quote a few. The restaurant remains open until 12 midnight and a table for two will cost you Rs 400-Rs 500.

Doc Talk
The increasing popularity of aquatic leisure activities has brought into prominence a wide variety of water related dermatoses. People in general, especially school-going kids, are not always conversant with the hazards associated with swimming. The health benefits of swimming are wonderful. However, the very things put in water to protect us from infection are responsible for some adverse effects on our skin, hair and even teeth.
Our skin is very vulnerable. Water by itself can dehydrate the skin - excessive contact with water removes the thin oily film on the skin called sebum making it to lose precious moisture. And as far as soaking for long hours in hyper-chlorinated waters of a pool is concerned, the skin is subjected to the worst kind of abuse. Chlorine gets absorbed in the skin causing dryness, and even rashes, eczema and other allergies and skin diseases. If at all, body lotions or ordinary sunscreens are applied to the skin prior to swimming, it can bond with these substances and cause undesirable and untoward reactions. Skin also tends to become sensitive and the possibility of getting early wrinkles, freckles, acne and other spots and blemishes cannot be ruled out. Chlorine wreaks havoc on hair. Chlorine forms a bond with the protein in our hair and causes lot of damage. The bonding of chlorine causes the protein in the hair to breakdown making it dry, coarse, brittle and unmanageable.

Con & comic
Comedy has no limitations and this time, its horizon has been well explored by Shashant A Shah who presents the first revenge comedy Bajatey Raho. This movie is not only a perfect amalgamation of comedy and reality but also brings to you an array of brilliant actors who are forced to believe in the concept of con v/s con in order to win over evil. Know a little more about the movie as we get candid with Tusshar Kapoor aka Sukhi:
How was your experience working with Shashant A Shah? I had seen Chalo Dilli and wanted to work with Shashant since then. I feel Shashant is a very involved and sincerer director. He is completely a producer’s director and in my career so far, I have never seen a director so incorrupt and economical. Shashant eats drinks and sleeps his film. He is one of the hardest working directors I have known so far. I just hope that all his hard work translates well on screen. You have always preferred comedies over other genres. Is that true? Not at all! In fact, if you see my last film Shoot Out at Wadala, I have played a completely different role. Be it The Dirty Picture, Shor in the City, C Kkompany or Gayab, I have always done more serious cinema. I think it was my role in the Golmaal series that has started stereotyping my work. Today even if you see my role in Bajatey Raho, it is so much more realistic and unconventional just like the film. For me, it is more about selecting a film with a good script, a good director, a good producer and a good co-star rather than the genre (laughs). In other words, I am always looking for the perfect combinations!! Tell us a little bit about your character in the film. I play the role of Sukhi who is very emotional yet comical. The story starts by showing a drift between my father and me. So it’s a complex character. He’s mature and wants to look at life in his own way. I have had intense meetings and discussions with Shashant in order to understand the mindset of the character. I even learnt Punjabi as I feel it is very important to get under the skin of the character so that one can do complete justice to the role. I used to watch Punjabi movies, talk to my workers who were Punjabi and ask them to correct me wherever required. Tell us more about Bajatey Raho. It’s a rib-tickling, mad, light hearted journey of four people who are close to each other and have come together to get the right thing done the wrong way. Tell us about your upcoming projects. Right now I am in talks with Satish Kaushik for his next project. Simultaneously, I am also working on my first production and am on a lookout for a good script for the same.

Back to the past
Actor Abhishek Bachchan took a ride down the memory lane and recalled his first release Refugee, the buzz around his debut movie and the nervousness that he felt at its premiere 13 years ago.
The 37-year-old made his debut with JP Dutta’s 2000 movie Refugee, which also marked Kareena Kapoor’s entry into filmdom. “So, it’s been 13 years to the day since my 1st film ‘Refugee’ released - 30th June, 2000. It’s been a fun ride so far... Thank you all for the immense love, faith, belief, support and tolerance. I would not be here without you! Big love,” Abhishek posted on Twitter. “Memories of the premiere of the film are still so vivid. The great Liberty cinema, almost the entire film industry, the media, and amidst all this pageantry and excitement, two very scared, nervous and hopeful debutants, Kareena and myself. Great memories,” he added. So far the actor has been part of 50 movies, including hits like Yuva, Dhoom, Bunty Aur Bubli and Bol Bachchan. “13 years and just about 50 films, not bad! It’s been a lot of fun. But not as much fun and promise that the coming year holds,” he posted. Last seen in Rohit Shetty’s Bol Bachchan, Abhishek will soon be seen reprising his role of ACP Jai Dixit in the third installment of Dhoom franchise, which also features Aamir Khan and Katrina
Kaif. — IANS

What a let down!
The super-choosy Pankaj Kapoor has not been seen in any film after the ill-fated Matru Ki Bijli Ka Mandola. He is unlikely to be seen in any film in the coming years.
Apparently Pankaj backed out of Sanjay Puran Singh Chauhan’s film at the last minute.
Chauhan says, “Pankajji backed out the night before shooting. We had to replace him with Pavan Malhotra when the set was ready at Film City. And since the actor Ashwath Bhatt, who was to co-star with Pankajji did not match Pawan age-wise, we had to replace him as well.” Chauhan is baffled about why Pankaj Kapoor chose to exit so late in the day. “It’s still a mystery to me as to why this happened. Pankajji signed the deal. Just 16 hours before shooting he said he wasn’t ready for this movie at this point of time in his career.” Shocked and betrayed, Chauhan adds, “But I still have the highest regard for Pankaj saab and look forward to working with him in the future.”

Now, Irrfan on Nat Geo
At some point in our lives, we have witnessed situations that are life-threatening to us, our loved ones or complete strangers. But are we really prepared to face such critical situations and ensure that we play our part in saving a life? Recognising the need to sensitise people and taking the lead in making them ready for an emergency, the National Geographic Channel, in association with Medanta Hospital, launches the Be Emergency Ready! initiative. Supporting the social campaign would be national award-winning actor Irrfan Khan. He would reinforce the urgency of being emergency-sensitive and urge people to do their bit during difficult situations.
The campaign will kick-start with TV films featuring Irrfan Khan wherein he talks about the three important aspects of handling emergencies — knowledge, value of time and action — which can help save precious lives. It would then move on ground with special emergency workshops designed by seasoned Medanta doctors across corporate houses in cities like Mumbai and Delhi. Engaging with the tech-savvy online audience, the campaign will encourage people to share their inspirational stories related to emergency situations. Talking about his association with Nat Geo's Be Emergency Ready campaign, actor Irrfan Khan said, "There is a certain negligence and dehumanisation that plagues the society today. I am glad that a credible entity like National Geographic Channel has come forth to take forward this cause. I am happy and proud to be a part of this campaign and will do my bit in educating audiences. It will also be insightful for the viewers to watch the show Emergency Room and recognise real-life tensions and how it affects those who are dealing with it." The campaign focuses on sensitising a society that displays marked indifference and educating them on emergency etiquettes. Spanning across on ground and online mediums, the campaign culminates into a TV series — Emergency Room on National Geographic Channel that will showcase the realities that unfold within the four walls of an emergency ward of a hospital.
