    Blast from the past: We bet you won’t recognise this Bollywood diva from 2009!

    All you Sonam Kapoor fans out there; brace yourselves!

    We all idolise our very own B-town style-diva and are proud of the fact that she transformed herself from weighing 90 kilos to 57 kilos before her debut. This was one of the most symbolic transformations and an inspiration for many! But everybody has skeletons in their closets (no pointing fingers here) and we shouldn’t shy away from them. Learn from Ms. Kapoor.

    Take a look at these pictures from Vikram Chatwal’s bash from 2009 that will leave you shocked (And we are not kidding)!

     If that is what she looked then and this is what she looks 6 years later, we take a bow.

    Pictures: Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan spotted TOGETHER, for real!

    The world waits to spot these two Khans together and it happened yet again. Yes, for real and we just can’t stop looking at the pictures. Shah Rukh Khan will be promoting his movie ‘Dilwale’ on the sets of Bigg Boss 9 with Salman Khan for the very first time and the two met to shoot the promo at Mehboob studios, according to reports.

    While for now it is just pictures, the two will be seen on-screen when the episode airs during the Dilwale release weekend. We already cannot wait to see that episode. For now, take a look at these lovely, and might we add friendly, pictures of Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan.

    Pictures: And here they are again – Bajirao romances with his Mastani on sets of the TV show Swaragini!

    Let’s admit it, Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone are one of the hottest Bollywood couples currently and with their much awaited flick Bajirao Mastani’s release date just around the corner, the real life couple is spotted at various events promoting their film.

    The dynamic duo was recently found romancing and pulling off their antics (Ranveer Singh especially) at the sets of the Colors TV show Swaragini. Deepika Padukone was seen wearing an Anju Modi saree, the label behind the movie’s costumes, and needless to say looked gorgeous as ever. Ranveer was also spotted promoting the movie in character but the best part was their PDA. Don’t these two make PDA also look cool? We think so.

    Here are the pictures.

    Kareena and Kangana were spotted together at the airport for their appearance at the HT Leadership Summit, where both of them were full of praises for each other. Kangana gave us two different looks and the former just one. Kareena was seen wearing a casual pullover with denims and a pair of black knee-length boots. Kangana on the other hand carried out a funky look wearing a bomber jacket and her baggy pants followed by a second look in a shirt and skirt combo teamed with a Burberry trench.

    Comic-Con Delhi put a great end to the weekend! Here’s all you need to know!

    Comic-Con is nearly as good as heaven for any entertainment lover, nerd and a geek who wants to be surrounded by awesome people pulling off insane cosplays. Not just comics but also TV series inspired merchandise that have never been seen before (well, not all of them) was put out on display for the fans to drool over.

     Comic-Con Delhi

    Not to forget, socialising with people who have common interest in a specific character or series as you ended with satisfying debates and hard to forget conversations. We even spotted artists showing off their skills that had us go WTF! With every year, Comic-Con is making it big in India; people are getting a hang of it and we see a rise in the number of followers year after year making it a big nerd (read: fantastic) family.

    Comic-Con Delhi

    Sunday had a perfect end to the Comic-Con Delhi edition where people couldn’t get enough of the three-day extravaganza. We looked for different and memorable merchandises to take home with us raiding those numerous stalls (that’s the only thing we could do). The main attractions to the event were the known personalities Kristian Nairn (who obviously grabbed the fame as Hodor from ‘Game of Thrones’ is also a DJ) and Rob Denbleyker, the creator of ‘Cyanide & Happiness’ who also gave his contribution for the mainstream but awesome superheroes like Batman and Spiderman (bet you didn’t know that!).

  • 5 things you missed out on if you didn’t attend the Bacardi NH7 Weekender in Delhi!

    5 things you missed out on if you didn’t attend the Bacardi NH7 Weekender in Delhi!

    28th and 29th November were the happiest two days of November in Delhi. All thanks to Bacardi NH7 Weekender, people in the capital witnessed something so legendary that they couldn’t get enough. Coming back to us every year, Weekender has always landed right on our expectations with what they promise. And this year, they helped us Delhiites to put an end to November with a bang. This is what Bacardi NH7 Weekender did for us!  

    #1 Great music, of course!

    That’s what Bacardi NH7 Weekender is all about when you have freaking fifty artists who performed for Delhi for two days! It included big names like, A.R. Rahman, Vishal Dadlani, Mark Ronson, Vir Das’ Alien Chutney and many more! This is what gets the people together every year. Seriously, if you missed out on this, feel sorry for yourself.

    #2 The Merchandises!

     Talk about crazy party merchandises; from hoodies, sweatshirts, posters to even records for gramophones, everything a music-lover wants was available for them to purchase at the event and in abundance. It won’t be incorrect to say that the inner shopaholic of a music lover came to life for those two days.

    #3 Bacardi OCULUS!

    This year at Bacardi NH7 Weekender people were introduced to a 7D virtual experience, Bacardi OCULUS. It was an experience that took the fans and fun to another level and of course, raised the bar for all the other music fests happening around the country.

    Bacardi NH7 Weekender

    #4 Good food!

    Where there are people, good music and drinks, food becomes a necessity. And when you have thousands of people come together for a great time food is what keeps the energy up. Plus, having stalls by some of the best outlets in the food court, people had to make difficult decisions between attending the concert and hogging some mouth-watering food.

    (It’s getting better and better, isn’t it? Don’t start to weep now)

    #5 The mad crowd

    Delhi has been known for its energy when it comes to a festival that has been bringing them such great artists over the years. The crowd had one job, to enjoy to the extreme and Delhi has always done that flawlessly. Delhi cheered for the artists just to send out a message that they are having the time of their lives. Two insane nights has satisfied Delhi’s hunger until Bacardi NH7 Weekender is back again.

  • Game of Thrones’ sixth season’s teaser is out and it really is just a big tease!

    Game of Thrones’ sixth season’s teaser is out and it really is just a big tease!

    The forty second ‘teaser’ for Game of Thrones season six has left the world stunned, excited and with a lot of questions. First thing first, Jon Snow is there and so is everyone who has died so far in the series. Bummer, we know. But there are things that caught our attention. Like, the voiceover in the start that says, “We watch, we listen, and we remember. The past is already written. The ink is dry.” Followed by somewhat like a recap of most major events that happened in the last five seasons. The next thing we see is Brans warging into someone’s body and another voiceover follows in his voice saying, “They have no idea what’s going to happen.” And that’s it, HBO left us wondering what might just go down in season six but all we can do is make new theories to keep ourselves satisfied till the new season is out, which is April 2016.

    Here’s the teaser, HBO has kind of fooled us, but you can’t help but watch it. 

  • Dilwale’s team joins hands with CNN to support abolition of slavery

    Dilwale’s team joins hands with CNN to support abolition of slavery

    On The International Day for the Abolition of Slavery, Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol were seen helping CNN spread awareness about modern slavery by shooting paper planes with a message written on them followed by a hashtag that read Fly to Freedom. The two also passed the baton to Varun Dhawan and Kirti Sanon, enabling them to follow the movement. Both the young actors will be soon witnessed sharing the screen with Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol in their upcoming movie Dilwali.


    Humans have matched pace with time and evolved step by step, starting from the medieval period to the 21st century. However, we often forget that there exists a rather large bunch of people who are still devoid of basic human rights and freedom. And to especially help the cause of human trafficking, CNN International initiated the CNN Freedom Project back in 2011 that has been working tremendously for rescuing victims.

    CNN Freedom project is a humanitarian news media campaign that seeks to educate and advocate against modern slavery. The Diwale team came together in support of the cause urging everyone to join the movement. Take a look at the video.

    Let us all stand against Modern Slavery and turn this whimsical dream into reality #FlytoFreedom. When is your flight taking off?

    This dog lost his rear legs. What happened next will change the way you look at life!

    Some of us get a second chance at life and we should be grateful for it. Like human beings, animals too deserve a second chance and rightly so! Here’s a story of a dog who was hit by a car and lost his rear legs. Luckily, he got saved by the people at a dog shelter and he got another chance at life. What’s more, he got adopted by a couple who seem to have experienced what the dog must be going through first hand. The man who opened his doors to this dog found a best friend and saw his life change.

    Take a look and oh, give life a chance.
