"One day, I would like to do a story about my grandparents' generation who were Asian-Americans. They were put in camps during World War II. My father was born in a concentration camp in America because they (his family) were Japanese.

"My grandparents were protestors so, they were put in a more militarized camp that was under the Martial law," Fukunuga, who is here for Jio MAMI 18th Mumbai Film Festival with Star, told.

Asked about the Hollywood 'whitewashing' row, he said: "Hollywood is not one unit. It is an industry. I haven't faced any sort of prejudices in terms of my work. I grew up with a very difficult name to pronounce for most of the Americans. I definitely experienced racism as a child."

"We found vitamin E absorption was four- to seven-fold higher when three whole eggs were added to a salad," said Jung Eun Kim from Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana US.

"This study is novel because we measured the absorption of Vitamin E from real foods, rather than supplements, which contain mega-dose amounts of Vitamin E," Kim noted.

The faces and silhouettes of mythological characters have forever adorned jewellery pieces. But what has changed about their designing over the years?

Raminder Singh, Principal Jewellery Designer, Bluestone.com, shares some pointers on how to get your accessory game on point:

♦For family gatherings/dinner: A family gathering in the festive season calls for a combination of comfort and glamour. Go for an unconventional look by stacking up unique charm bracelets and detachable rose quartz chandelier earrings. This allows you to change your look over the course of the day -- detaching the chandeliers in the early part of the day to keep it simple and sophisticated while amping up the bling factor for the evening. 

The study revealed how air pollution actually affects the blood vessels to increase the risk of disease, which was previously unknown.

The researchers found that periodic exposure to fine particulate matter was associated with several abnormal changes in the blood that are markers for cardiovascular disease. 

As air pollution rose, they found small, micro-particles indicating cell injury and death significantly increased in number, levels of proteins that inhibit blood vessel growth increased, and proteins that signify blood-vessel inflammation also showed significant increases.

Chemical air pollutants, dirt and grime hang in the air. They are potent skin irritants. Make-up should also be removed at night. All these can cause dryness of the skin, or disrupt the normal acid-alkaline balance of the skin, leading to rashes and other eruptive conditions, like pimples and acne.

As Diwali approaches, the weather also changes. Seasonal changes also influence the skin. The humidity becomes less and the skin loses moisture to the atmosphere. So, one needs to keep the skin moisturised and also protect it from sun-exposure.

For normal to dry skin, cleanse twice a day, with a cleansing gel containing ingredients like aloe vera. Massage the cleanser lightly into the skin and remove it with moist cotton wool. Then apply rose water or a skin tonic using cotton wool. During the day, use a sunscreen before going out in the sun. Or, use a moisturiser if you are indoors. Moisturisers are available in cream and liquid form. For dry skin, at night, after cleansing, apply a nourishing cream and massage it on the face. Wipe off with moist cotton wool. You can apply a serum afterwards.

Begum, called the "Nightingale of Kashmir", breathed her last after a protracted illness, a relative said.

She was one of the most recognized female singers in the Kashmir Valley, having rendered thousands of songs from Radio Kashmir in Srinagar and in live concerts at other places in India and abroad.

Here are a few Do-it-yourself (DIY) tips provided by Chirajay Sharma, founder of website befikr.in, which provides home services to households across different service categories:

Psychopathy, sometimes also known as sociopathy, is traditionally defined as a personality disorder characterised by persistent antisocial behaviour, impaired empathy and remorse, and bold, disinhibited, egotistical traits.

However, it is their personality traits more than substance use that is associated with violence, the researchers stated.

"Filmmakers at that time, created art. Today, it's a business and all about numbers. Everything is thrown at our face. People have forgotten subtlety.

Now, it's about big collections at the box office, Rs 100 crore films, first weekend collection...It's all Greek to me," said the 68-year-old actress, known for films like "Guddi", "Abhimaan" and "Silsila".

The censor board gave the clearance for release of the politically controversial film to Delhi High Court after deletion of some objectionable scenes. It released on October 21. 

"I haven't shown even one incident in the film that isn't true. Yet the censor board delayed my film by one year. They asked for over 60 verbal and visual cuts. For what? And cut what?
