The winter is here and if you believe in being a fashionista, then it is time to change your wardrobe to look your best, especially if you love bodycon clothes. Fashion experts share important advice to help you start and get your A-game on. It may be the end of November but in the final part of our series on raising awareness about men’s health in this month, health experts help you understand testicular cancer better, and even say men shouldn’t shy away from getting tested.  
 
This week, there is a lot of food, one that includes some espresso, classic festive food and even some for yam. While we tell you how you can innovate with your espresso for Espresso Day, we also share classic recipes for Thanksgiving Day, but that doesn’t mean they can’t be enjoyed during Christmas. Apart from that, we also reach out to chefs to give you an innovative take on suran, better known as yam, and it may just change your opinion about the root vegetable.  
 
While food is a crowd favourite, we also delve into some comedy but particularly Dalit comedians, who bring up caste in their jokes. They not only talk about their process but also the criticism they face. In another story, we talk to filmmaker Somnath Waghmare about his soon-to-be-released documentary film, ‘Chaityabhumi’.  
 
Last but not the least, we also speak to jazz pianists Thilo Wolf and Monty Alexander, who perform this weekend at the NCPA’s International Jazz Festival 2022. They delve into making music, coming to Mumbai for the first time, and witnessing the evolution of jazz
