The 'Forrever Friends' fashion show, to be held on Sunday, is being organised by Smita Thackeray's Mukti Foundation, read a statement.

Here, Kochhar will be launching her new menswear line, with singer Shaan and cricketer Zaheer Khan also walking the ramp.

"I am very happy to be doing this show for animal welfare with Mukti Foundation, which is run by my dear friend Smita Thackeray, who is also an ardent animal lover. I think it's a brilliant concept put together to create awareness and sensitivity towards animals," said Kochhar.

"Hungry", written and directed by Bornila Chatterjee, also features the critically acclaimed Tisca Chopra. It is based on William Shakespeare's tragedy "Titus Andronicus".

About being a part of the Film London production, Sayani said in a statement: "Just working with such a splendid cast by itself was out of the world. Naseer sir, in fact, had come once to FTII (Film and Television Institute of India, Pune), when I was a student there, as a guest faculty."

"I always wished I would once work with him. The fact that I'm working with him in such a short duration of my career is extremely rewarding. The shoot of the film was absolutely a learning experience for me to be around such talented individuals."

Saba, who is set to make her Bollywood debut with Irrfan Khan starrer "Hindi Medium", took a dig at some of India's cine stars on talk show "Good Morning Zindagi". An excerpt from the Pakistani show has gone viral on social media -- and Saba has been inundated with calls over it.

"It was a fun show... There was nothing in it... 'Koffee With Karan' mein kya kuchch nahi hota (What all does not happen on 'Koffee With Karan')... I love everyone, and he's (Salman) a big superstar and so humble. Why would I say anything bad about him?"

In the two minute-plus long video, the host asks Saba to say 'no' to hypothetical situations involving Hrithik Roshan, Emraan Hashmi, Ranbir Kapoor, Riteish Deshmukh and Salman -- and state why would she say 'no'.

When the host asked Saba if Hrithik asked her to marry him, how would she say no, Saba said: "Don't want a father of two... He is not my cup of tea." 

Next was Bollywood's 'serial kisser' Emraan Hashmi, whom she rejected because she didn't want "mouth cancer".

Athar Aftab, Managing Director of Izuk Impex, manufacturer, supplier and exporter of exotic range of premium herbal products, doles out tips on things that one needs to follow before trying out hair colour.

The duet with Martin for his recent hit reggaeton single "Vente Pa Ca" has been curated by Sony Music US and India and A & R teams, read a statement.

"Ricky Martin is a legend and working with him was a dream! When I heard the song for the first time, I knew I wanted to be a part of it. The hook of the song stays with you long after you are done listening and that's what I love about the song," Singh said in a statement.

The song has Martin singing in English, while Singh croons in Hindi. 

Rahul Arora, Director at Grandreams, a wedding planning service, has shared a few tips that could guide you in covering most of your problems:

* Date: Deciding the date of the event is primarily the first step to realise your plans. Once you are certain, why wait? It is only in the interest of the client, as he is at a better position to negotiate due to low demand.

It is the traditional first-come, first-served policy that is applied by all venues. Once the wedding season is round the corner, the demand rockets consequently turning the tables on negotiation and priority.

* Guest count: Before you choose a venue, you ought to know your guest list. Knowing these numbers helps in setting a realistic budget and sidelines all trivial troubles.

The singer is recreating the song from the 1964 film "Woh Kaun Thi?". It was originally sung by legendary singer Lata Mangeshkar, and Palak's version is for Star Plus's show "Koi Laut Ke Aaya Hai".

"An iconic song like 'Lag ja gale' is always a treat to listen to, but it was a bigger treat to recreate it for 'Koi Laut Ke Aaya Hai'. It's a great honour to step into the shoes of the nation's most loved and treasured singer, Lata-ji, and I'm really happy to have this opportunity," Muchhal said in a statement. 

"Koi Laut Ke Aaya Hai" features Shoaib Ibrahim, Surbhi Jyoti and Sharad Kelkar.

The show, organised by the 21 Gun Salute Heritage and Cultural Trust, will be on view till February 19.

These convertibles include names like the 1922 Moon, 1927 Lanchester, 1933 Cadillac V12 7 Passenger Limousine, and the like. 

Vintage and classic cars from Delhi, Haryana, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Tamil Naidu, Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra and various other parts of the country are also present at the show.

The 31-year-old, who has 10-month-old daughter Luna with husband and musician John Legend, "doesn't know" how single mothers cope with raising a child on their own, reports etonline.com.

"Every time I look at Luna, I wonder, 'How on earth does anybody do this alone?' I have the utmost respect for mothers (and) single mothers," Teigen said.

"I have my mother who lives with us, I have John, I have a nanny. I'm very outspoken about it, and when I see that I still have a difficult time, I just don't know how anyone else does it," she added.

The 60-year-old, who has four children, Colin, 39 and Elizabeth, 34, with his late former wife Samantha Lewes, and Chet, 29, and Truman, 21, with Wilson, is a grandfather to three children.

In a clip released on the official Oscars YouTube channel, Freeman has lent his voice to help the "Jimmy Kimmel Live" host. 

"James 'Jimmy' Kimmel. A man on the precipice of hosting the Oscars and an opportunity to be the toast of the town," Freeman can be heard saying.

Freeman continues saying the hosting gig will either be "an opportunity to be the toast of the town" or a "chance to bomb so fantastically, everywhere he goes people would say, 'look at sucky sucko --he had his shot, and man, did he blow it in front of billions'".

Kimmel's eyebrows furrow, and he tells Freeman, who is standing right next to him, that his words aren't encouraging.

"Getting 'Humsafar' is dream come true. I met Shahshank at a party post his successful film 'Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania'. There I sang this song for him which I had almost written three years back. Super impressed with the track, he promised me song in his next movie," Sachdeva said in a statement.

The Delhi-based singer said once the scripting of "Badrinath Ki Dulhani" was done, Khaitan called him.

"And Hence 'Humsafar' was born giving me biggest Bollywood debut I could have imagined," he added. 

Shahid told: "My character Nawab Malik is a very different character from Tommy Singh ('Udta Punjab'), Charlie-Guddu ('Kaminey') and Haider ('Haider'), and that was the reason why I played the part... Vishal sir always offers me something challenging and different."

"Nawab Malik is the most heroic character I have ever played so far, who is a soldier with a strong sense of duty and big patriot. It is a very inspiring character and I am glad to get the opportunity."

The film is set in a time when India was going through a political turmoil.

The findings in the study led by Marta Guasch-Ferre, researcher at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health in the US, showed that people who consumed 12 grams per day of butter had a two-fold higher risk of developing diabetes. 

Saturated and animal fat such as cheese and butter that are rich in saturated fatty acids and trans fats, their intake creates greater risk of developing Type 2 diabetes, whereas whole-fat yogurt intake is associated with a lower risk.

On the other hand, plant-based diets -- rich in legumes, whole-grain cereals, fruits, vegetables and nuts -- have been found more beneficial for health than animal-based foods such as red meat and processed meat, and also have less impact on the environment.

According to Bruno, Upton's dedication to training serves as an inspiration to other women.

"I've personally seen Kate already inspire a lot of girls to (lift) heavier because in their mind they think that they're going to get big and bulky, but then they see Kate doing it and think, 'Well, I guess I don't have to worry about that'," Bruno told eonline.com.

Bruno said that Upton was very disciplined when it came to getting in shape for the nude shoot.

"A lot of times in the afternoons, we would either go together or she would go with her dog, Harley, hiking just to get outside. Or, for a while when we were really amping up for the shoot, we would do an hour of tennis every day," he said.

"Suicide Squad" was helmed by David Ayer.

According to sources, Gibson is familiarising himself with the material. But the studio is also looking at other directors, Daniel Espinosa among them, reports hollywoodreporter.com.

The Ayer directorial, which released last year, featured actors like Will Smith, Margot Robbie and Jared Leto.

Asked if she would like to do TV again, Nora told here: "Yeah. I don't limit myself as long as the content is good. Of course, if a show comes and the content is great, I would never say not to acting on TV. All the big actors are now on TV and all the big actors have come from TV. It's a great platform."

After her stint in "Bigg Boss", she was seen in a special appearance for the song "Rock The Party" in the 2015 film "Rocky Handsome".

According to a study, led by researchers from Bambino Gesu Hospital in Italy, dietary fructose increases serum uric acid concentrations.

Both uric acid concentration and fructose consumption may be high in individuals with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) -- a condition where extra fat is accumulated in liver cells in people who drink little or no alcohol.

It is estimated to affect up to 30 per cent of the general population in Western countries and up to 9.6 per cent of all children and 38 per cent of obese children across a spectrum of liver disease, including NASH (defined as steatosis, hepatocyte ballooning and inflammation). 

Although NASH is a less aggressive form of NAFLD, it can progress to severe fibrosis and cirrhosis, with development of hepatocellular carcinoma in adults.

The findings suggested that fructose consumption was independently associated with high uric acid, which occurred more frequently in patients with NASH than in not-NASH patients.

"It is plausible that dietary fructose intake and uric acid concentrations are potential risk factors for liver disease progression in NAFLD," said Valerio Nobili from Bambino Gesu Hospital in Italy.

"The study shows for the first time that uric acid concentrations and dietary fructose consumption are independently and positively associated with NASH," Nobili added.

For the study, reported in the Journal of Hepatology, the team analysed 271 obese children and adolescents with NAFLD -- 155 males, mean age 12.5 years -- who underwent liver biopsy. 

A study warns that people who are genetically inclined to storing belly fat may be at an increased risk of developing Type 2 diabetes and coronary heart disease.

"People vary in their distribution of body fat -- some put fat in their belly, which we call abdominal adiposity and some in their hips and thighs," says Sekar Kathiresan, Associate Professor at Harvard Medical School in Boston.

"We tested whether genetic predisposition to abdominal adiposity was associated with the risk for Type 2 diabetes and coronary heart disease and found that the answer was a firm 'yes'," Kathiresan added.

Previous research had identified 48 gene variants associated with waist-to-hip ratio, resulting in a genetic risk score.

For the new study, appearing in the journal of JAMAA, the team analysed the genomes of a total research group of more than 400,000 individuals.

From the monotony of Mondays to freedom guaranteed on Fridays, one can lift up the moods with lip shades each day of the week.

"Today's modern woman understands completely what a vibrant bold mouth is all about and what it does to elevate her mood, amplify desire and leave a lasting impression," said Elton J. Fernandez, official make-up artist at Maybelline New York.

"The strength of a colour adds layers to our lives and dramatic dimension to people and places. A great lip colour can boost your confidence and uplift your mood," Fernandez said.

"It's a creative extension of how you feel, letting you communicate the unspoken. Go conquer the world with the right lip colour and let your lips do the talking," he added.

Give expression to your emotions with a dash of colour as Fernandez has listed tips on how women can make their week beautiful with lipstick.

♦ Manic Mondays: The weekend is over. Fun gets a full stop and we have to start acting like adults. We completely understand and relate to that urge of crawling back into bed and leaving the world behind. Instead, we want to confront the world, go big and bold. Wear your mood on your mouth and opt for more daring shades of red or even a maroon.

♦ Tranquil Tuesdays: You're only a day closer in the long wait for liberty. Now you've come to terms with the inescapable bleakness of a Tuesday. There's a definite drop in excitement levels with the sullen lull of the second day. Channel your 'meh' mood with colours like mauve, taupe, nudes and tawny.

♦ Wicked Wednesdays: You've made it through almost half the week and still going strong. This shows endurance and it definitely deserves a reward. Indulge in the richness of shades like berry, burgundy or even a chocolate. Let your fearless spirit take over the world with these intense pigments.

Married individuals had lower levels of the stress hormone cortisol than those who never married or were previously married, showed the study published in the journal Psychoneuroendocrinology.

Prolonged stress is associated with increased levels of cortisol which can interfere with the body's ability to regulate inflammation, which in turn promotes the development and progression of many diseases.

"It is exciting to discover a physiological pathway that may explain how relationships influence health and disease," said one of the researchers Brian Chin from Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, US.

Over three non-consecutive days, the researchers collected saliva samples from 572 healthy adults aged 21-55. Multiple samples were taken during each 24-hour period and tested for cortisol.

The results showed that the married participants had lower cortisol levels than the never-married or previously-married people across the three day period. 

The researchers also compared each person's daily cortisol rhythm -- typically, cortisol levels peak when a person wakes up and decline during the day. 

The designer, who will be marking his third season at the event, will showcase his latest line titled Vida.

"It is always an honour to represent Indian fashion at an international platform. I feel a certain responsibility while showcasing at these platforms. However, I like to channel that sense of responsibility into creating fashion that best describes me and the country I belong to," Rocky said in a statement. 

The designer, who has styled celebrities including Paris Hilton, Beyonce and Priyanka Chopra, added: "To offer the world of fashion a small part of India through my art, each time I showcase, is certainly elating."

Talking about his collection, Rocky said: "The collection speaks of the beauty that surrounds us; the one that meets the eye and our ability to see beyond the one that doesn't. This collection carters to the beauty of imperfection." 

The study showed that although both speakers and listeners expected new stories -- such as ranging from exotic vacations to celebrity sightings -- to be more interesting, listeners showed more pleasure with familiar stories.

Hearing experiences one has not seen or known may leave the listener bored, confused and underwhelmed.

The reason may be because the experiences shared are so complex that they are nearly impossible for an ordinary person to communicate well, the researchers said. 

"Our friends are actually a whole lot happier when we tell them what they already know because at least they understand what we're talking about," said Daniel T. Gilbert, psychological scientist at Harvard University.

"We worry too much about thrilling our listeners and not enough about confusing them," Gilbert added.

For the study, published in Psychological Science, the team conducted a series of experiments.

In one of their experiments, the researchers assigned participants to groups of three, with one person acting as the speaker and the other two acting as listeners.

The 'sunshine vitamin' as it known, not just improves bone and muscle health but also protects against respiratory infections by boosting levels of antimicrobial peptides -- natural antibiotic-like substances -- in the lungs. 

Acute respiratory infections such as pneumonia are a major cause of global morbidity and mortality. 

"Most people understand that Vitamin D is critical for bone and muscle health. Our analysis has found that it helps the body fight acute respiratory infection,...," said Carlos Camargo from the Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH).

The findings showed that daily or weekly supplementation halved the risk of acute respiratory infection in people with most significant Vitamin D deficiency -- below 25 nanomoles per litre (nmol/L). 

Administering occasional high doses of Vitamin D did not produce significant benefits.

People with higher baseline Vitamin D levels also benefited, although the effect was more modest (10 per cent risk reduction), the researchers noted, in the paper published in the journal BMJ. 

"I believe 'TED Talks India-Nayi Soch' will inspire many minds across India. It is a concept I connected with instantly, as I believe that the media is perhaps the single most powerful vehicle to inspire change. I am looking forward to working with TED and Star India, and truly hope that together, we are able to inspire young minds across India and the world," Shah Rukh said in a statement.

The show on Star Plus will feature speakers sharing big ideas in TED's signature format of short, powerful talks. This is the first time TED is collaborating with a major network and mega-star to produce a TV series featuring original TED Talks in a language other than English. 

"In an age of high volatility the role of ideas to fuel positive change cannot be overstated. We are delighted to have Shah Rukh Khan share our vision and lend his charisma to this exciting endeavour," Uday Shankar, Chairman and CEO, Star India, said.

His advice for them: "Don't reproduce what's already there."

"Follow your heart and create something that is unique because it is important for every artist to have a signature. Without it, you are nothing," Bal said.

"It's great that the young designers today are delving into the rich heritage of India and its textiles, because we still have an untapped creative potential and a reservoir of artists who we can bring to the main platform if they are given enough opportunities.

"My advice to young designers is to create something that develops into your signature. Don't reproduce what's already there."

The 25-year-old was turned away from a party at Milk Studios here despite the fact that he performed at the Grammys on Sunday, reports eonline.com.

Talking about his rejection, Sheeran said: "That's actually happened four years in a row. And that's not just my label's after-party! That's just after-parties in general."

Sheeran was reportedly one of many stars who were turned away from the party -- including Oscar winner Adrien Brody and DJ Pete Tong -- after the venue reached its maximum capacity within one hour.

The 38-year-old gave birth to her third child Joshua Bishop Jr just eight weeks ago, but has said she is already thinking about expanding her brood even further -- even though her 37-year-old husband might not be so keen, reports etonline.com.

"I've already tried to have this conversation with Josh, but it's so funny - at eight weeks, he's like, 'I'm not talking about this right now! I think once you have two, it doesn't matter anymore," Heigl said.

The "Doubt" star, who also shares eight-year-old Nancy and four-year-old Adalaide with the "It's your Move" musician, says her third pregnancy "wasn't planned".
