Aneet Padda channels pure Disney-princess poise, trading a glass slipper for a high-fashion exit in Juhu on Monday. Appearing as an ambassador for a jewellery brand, the Saiyaara starlet proves that while diamonds dazzle, confidence and a flawless silhouette are the ultimate accessories.
It takes strength to turn loss into a tribute, and love into a legacy - and this month, Farah Khan Ali is set to do just that. We hear the celebrated jewellery designer will open her new flagship store in South Mumbai on March 21, marking an important milestone in her 30-year journey with gems.

One has already come to expect opulent design and refined craftsmanship from Farah, but this launch comes with a collection that goes beyond glamour - delivering heart. Alongside her signature monogram pieces, she will unveil a special line of jewels inspired by her late mother, Zarine Khan, who passed away in November last year.
Farah believes that jewellery carries a feeling, a moment, an intention. "Long after the day has passed, a jewel remembers," she says. If that is so, what finer way to honour her mother's memory than with a collection that transforms love and loss into lasting beauty? And with sisters Sussanne Khan and Simone Arora lending solid support, this event promises to be far more than a store launch, serving instead as a sparkling tribute to love, legacy, and a life well-lived.
Throughout this T20 World Cup campaign, Tilak Varma has offered up some crucial cameos, but his all-star moment appears to have arrived after we claimed the cup! Still buzzing from the high of Sunday's victory, we woke up on Monday to find Tilak took the trophy to bed with him - if only for a few photos.

In a series of super-sexy shots on social media, the shirtless star is seen in his hotel room, toothbrush in one hand and trophy in the other. The pièce de résistance, however, is the last image in the carousel: trophy, tattoo sleeve, medal and the man himself on display like art against soft white sheets. The tournament may be over, but the fun has clearly just begun - and honestly, who would stop at play when you can truly slay?
If there was ever any doubt the Little Master has a big heart, let's put that debate to rest. As our boys in blue lifted the T20 World Cup trophy on Sunday, Sunil Gavaskar kept his promise to Suryakumar Yadav (we told you all about that on February 17) - breaking into a brief jig to celebrate our colossal cricket triumph at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.

The 76-year-old legend, usually the picture of restraint in the commentary box, let his guard down for a few seconds as India Waale blared in the background. And in doing so, Gavaskar reminded us that cricket, beyond statistics and scorecards, is still - first and foremost - about joy.
"I really do believe that I stand on the shoulders of amazing artists and talents that came before me," Priyanka Chopra Jonas told an audience of eager students during the India Conference at Harvard last month. Arguably our most recognisable face in Hollywood today, Priyanka credited Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and the late Irrfan Khan with paving the path to global recognition. But long before these trailblazers there was another, and it took a true OG to recognise it.
Kabir Bedi
On Friday, Salman Khan posted a shout-out to Sandokan star Kabir Bedi, referring to him as "the first Indian to do an international TV show." Generous with his praise, Salman went on call Kabir "forever handsome, enigmatic, the original Tiger." Both the sentiment and its timing were spot-on, with the iconic series celebrating 50 years at the Sanremo Music Festival in Italy on February 24. Of course, Kabir and his charming wife Parveen Dusanj attended the commemorative event, even interacting with the star of the new Sandokan series: Turkish actor Can Yaman.

But back to our local âTiger' Salman and his tribute to Bedi. "My duaa that everyone looks as strong and conducts their emotional life as @kabirbedi. The new Sandokan @canyaman⦠you have big shoes to fill." A roaring dose of rightful praise from one Tiger to another.
