Holidays and more!
Talk of the town
Ooru girl Sharmiela Mandre looks like she’s having the time of her life, from what we see on her social media. The south beauty looks chic and fit in the pictures she’s been posting on her Instagram.
From letting her hair down at David Guetta’s concert with her gal pals, to shopping at Dior and Fendi and posing for her own shutterbugs in Los Angeles, this lady who’s next film Aake is all set to be released, seems to be treating herself to the fancy-shmancy vacation, post all the hard work she's put into the thriller!
Where
Were lovebirds Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma spotted together? At the 10th anniversary celebrations of RCB in Bengaluru. Here, they are spotted at the players’ table with city boy and cricketer KL Rahul.
What
Is Sarita Mandoth doing in Bhutan? The lady is in the breathtaking kingdom as part of a yoga retreat helmed by the talented Namrata Sudhindra. And true to her style, she has upped the fashion quotient with her designer yoga outfits too!
Why
Is Bengaluru girl Monisha Jaisingh a happy wife? Her husband Rohit Vaid has won the Swarna Kamal for best animated film, Mahayoddha Ram. Rohit received the award from the President of India, while his proud wife and mom in law Bindu Jaisingh cheered him on!
Desi tadka
Bollywood star Priyanka Chopra’s Ralph Lauren trench coat at the Met Gala has not earned her much appreciation amongst India’s design fraternity. Designer Wendell Rodricks openly poked fun on a social networking site with many other prominent people jumping into the fray. One bright spark called it a ‘chapati’ which required a tandoor to ferry it across.
The designer quickly deleted the post and has now carried another one where he applauds the actress for having the courage to laugh at the criticism. Here’s Priyanka’s kadak reply to her critics: “I’ve picked a few of my favourites! Good to know that the dress serves more purposes than just fashion. Hope to continue to stir your creative juices. This is why I love the #MetGala you literally can push the envelope for fashion anywhere! Until next time... #ROFL”
Basking in the glory of her recent releases, actress Sruthi Hariharan seems to be on a roll these days. And looks like the city lass is making conscious efforts to up her sartorial game too. Sruthi looked every bit of a diva in an off-shoulder navy blouse paired with pleated beige trousers at the promotions of her forthcoming Sandalwood flick Happy New Year. A little birdie tells us that Sruthi has been taking her outfit choices a tad seriously, hiring designers and stylists. We appreciate the efforts, Sruthi!
When
Was Rohan Bopanna spotted taking a breather? Earlier this week catching up with friends and family at a baby shower. Still basking in the glory from winning the Monte Carlo Masters doubles crown, Bops’ squad too was aptly dressed for summer, and by the looks of it (all pinks and pastels) we think it was a lil’ girl’s baby shower.
Who
Threw a party to celebrate his fiancé Yashila’s birthday? Jackie Virwani. And from what we gather, the large weekday turnout at this nightclub made it a rocking affair.
Anil Kumble’s son, Mayas has taken after his dad when it comes to loving wildlife! The father-son duo where spotted bonding on a safari trip at the Ranthambore National Park. The head coach of the Indian team took to his social media to share how much he enjoyed his son’s company, passion and enthusiasm for wildlife. And look! There’s a photo to prove those memories.
