Take a typical day. Your daily agenda would probably include catering to work, children, house and cooking. With enough on your plate already, you want to lose those few extra pounds. You pick up magazines and read about those diets, the Beverly Hills Diet, The Grapefruit Diet, The Fruitarian Diet and the list is endless. Celebrities shall swear by them. So you pick one and it says eat only one food type at a time, do not mix carbs with proteins in one meal, stop fruits after 10 days of starting the diet. So the million dollar question is, is it practically possible to plan your entire day around your high profile diet? Good for those who can, for others: not a problem.
Be it a diet regime, or a work out regime, pick one that you know you can follow week after week, month after month. Something that fits in your routine and schedule, you can be consistent with, and not the one because Madonna swears by it. Know your food well, the healthy fats and the unhealthy ones, switch to a healthier oil. Keep white sugar and white flour away from your daily meals. Strike a balance with vegetables, fruits and cereals. Come to terms with a diet that is friendly with you, since a rigid one is bound to drive you away.
So its okay if your pattern of eating has not been given a name and flocks of people are not swearing by it, as long as you still manage to keep it healthy, thats all that matters.

Tashan lacking Tashan?

Another cant-wait-for-it-to-release flick from the Yash Raj banner. So this time, is it their fault, or ours? Did we go expecting too much? But then surely, expecting some tashan wouldn’t be asking for too much.
The characters of the leads actors were brilliantly refreshing, if only the storyline had been that impressive. Yes, Tashan lacks a strong storyline and a necessary momentum to keep you glued to your seats. A few good laughs and there, thanks to the wonderful Anil Kapoor and Akhaye Kumar, and of course the smoulderingly good Kareena Kapoor, might just help save this movie. It definitely strikes gold when it comes a few bollywood essentials, packed with bollywood ishtyle hero fights and beautifully picturised songs. Undoubtedly, Kareena Kapoor is at her best and at her peak at this point. Saif Ali Khan is at his polished best, while the others are at their “desi” best. A definite blockbuster had these characters been put in a more well thought and carried out story. So leave your brains and expectations home, go for Bhaiya ji a.k.a Anil Kapoor and the sizzling Kareena, you might just enjoy yourself.
