Now, a book on Virat's success Books on Indian cricketers are always a huge draw, thanks to the demigod status that comes with the national obsession. With this craze reaching feverish levels at the moment, this diarist is tempted to look at the release of a book on Virat Kohli as a smart marketing move. Titled Winning like Virat: Think &amp; Succeed like Kohli (can we have shorter titles, please), this book is an ode to India's dynamic cricket captain's all-round leadership and man-management skills, not to forget his business acumen. Penned by Abhirup Bhattacharya, the book hopes to unravel the 'secret' to his meteoric rise, and help readers to emulate it in their lives. The sharp brain that he is, we're guessing that it will be only a matter of time before we hear of Kohli, the business wiz, spelling out mantras at universities and corporate houses.

When Mrs Fadnavis came calling 'Banker, playback singer, social worker, homemaker' is how Amruta Fadnavis describes herself on her Twitter handle. True to this bio, she is often actively involved in the socio-cultural-educational scene of the city. While only recently she crooned with singer Runa Laila at an event, earlier this week she was seen at the celebration of the success of a delegation of educators to the UK. Here's one lady who keeps as busy as the CM!

Aamir's water wars Earlier this year, the second edition of Aamir Khan's Paani Foundation-Satyamev Jayate Water Cup was launched amidst much fanfare, with bigwigs from the world of politics and cinema in attendance at the Sahyadri State Guest House. Now, with the summer already here, all the efforts of water conservation will be put to the test - in this case, literally. Starting this Saturday, the show Tufaan Aalaya, an initiative of the foundation, will air across Marathi news and entertainment channels. With an aim to popularise the cause in an entertaining format, three teams of actors representing Vidarbha, Marathwada and Western Maharashtra will compete against one another. While the content of the show is yet to be revealed, we assume the actors will be vying symbolically for the Water Cup, as 30 talukas work towards making their region drought-free.

I learn every day," said Mirza.
