Getting real!

The ever-diplomatic SRK may finally be doing some plain speak and with whom? It's the YashRaj camp to which SRK was heavily indebted post "Darr" and "Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge". Apparently, King Khan is miffed with the functioning of the ...


Yet another...

Looks like there is going to be one more new face in Bollywood soon. Manasvi Mamgai (the Elite model who has won the Miss Tourism International award) says the film industry is where she's going to be. Just 21, the Delhi girl began her New ...


One look please

Quick, take your pick - Tusshar Kapoor with a moustache or without one? None? This is going to be rather disappointing for the young man. Tusshar's been working hard on his next film "Life Partner", which is produced by Abbas- Mustan and ...


VOICE YOUR VIEWS - NEW YEAR RESOLUTIONS
Change for better

As the New Year is ushered, we should cultivate good habits. Wake up early, be active and brisk always, live life simply. We should not harm others, always be cheerful, helpful and courteous to others. Our mind should not have any space for ...

Purposeful

Lets us make the New Year more purposeful. Students should promise to go to villages and create awareness about education. At least every city student should be responsible for ensuring and helping one poor child to complete primary education. ...


Dos and don’ts

Let us resolve to start the New Year without consuming alcohol and blindly aping Western culture. Let us resolve to eradicate AIDS. Let us resolve to pursue the New Year with full faith in god and fellow human beings. Let us dedicate ourselves ...


To resolve

We are blessed with the freedom of choice. Why should we confine resolutions to New Year? Why not see each and every day as an inspiring opportunity to wipe out past mistakes and habits, learning from them to better ourselves? This constant ...


Chance for correction

Human beings often tend to flout the rules and resolutions. But, every New Year gives us an opportunity to correct our mistakes committed in the previous year. It is wise to use the opportunity for the betterment of self, friends, relatives ...


Follow them
