Many Bollywood movies will come to your mind when we talk about white saris. Chandni sure is one. But for me, my love for white saris with white embroidery on them, started with Dhadkan. Ever since then, I have been a connoisseur of such pretty saris. Standing against the Diwali lights. And below are few of more Bollywood actresses who have adorned similar white saris.

Here is a compilation of list of disgusting habits of men. I have been able to compile this list based on my girl friend's feedbacks. Disclaimer: None of the points stated below apply to men in my life. Specially my husband. But towards the end, I will state what actually applies to me. 1. Men fart 2. Men snore 3. Men burp out too loud 4. Men pick their noses 5. Men do not know how to pee. They spray all around the pot. Then they do not flush. Then they conveniently forget to put the seat cover. 6. Men do not make their bed after getting up. 7. Men create a lot of mess all around the house and expect women to clean it up. 8. Men want their women to dress up according to their sensibilities. 9. Men dominate and boss around. 10. Men want women to be answerable to them all the time as to where they are and when would they be back home. 11. Men want women to raise their children and do not help much in that. Specially when little babies wake up at night, changing diapers,...

Today is Dhanteras. I got a message/sms from a friend, which read, "Guruji is in Delhi on Monday-24. Kuber and Dhanvantri Puja Diwali Utsav with HIM @ 6.30 PM, DDA Park, opp sector3, RK Puram, near DLTA. Happy Diwali. I was quite excited about it. I told few of my friends and we all planned to be there. I cancelled work appointments, dressed up, endured Diwali traffic on the road, found the location (The location mentioned in the sms was also wrong. They could have just said- opposite IIT. It would have made things simpler. We were searching in RK Puram). Only to reach the venue and a simple board saying that the event has been cancelled. I called up this person who had smsed. Obviously, she did not bother to pick her phone. I left her an sms saying, "at least you could/should have smsed to tell the event was cancelled." Guruji is apparently staying at her place. All these people start thinking that Guruji is their property. She is an AOL teacher. She could not inf...

Here is my list of top 7 make up faux pas 1. Smudged lipstick on teeth. 2. So much blusher on your face which makes you look like clown or as if someone just slapped you. 3. Foundation/Compact much lighter than your own skin tone. Patchy/smudgy foundation. Or a color where face and neck are not done equally. Sometimes it makes you look as if you fell face down in a tub of baby powder. 4. Chipped Nail paint 5. Skinny Eyebrows. Skinny brows are so 80's. Go for strong, thick brows instead. It will make your entire look younger, whereas skinny brows add a couple decades of age onto your face. Why? cuz babies don't shave their brows, that's why. Be really careful with plucking or trimming your brows, look for someone who's an expert in this field, because perfect brows could really help framing your entire face, and different shapes of brows give out different types of impression. 6. Too big fake eyelashes. Leave these for st...
