Parmeet Sethi On His Marital Struggles With Archana Puran Singh: "We Were Fighting A Lot"
New Delhi: Archana Puran Singh and Parmeet Sethi, one of the rock-solid couples of the Indian television industry, are in headlines, courtesy their eventful YouTube vlogs. Archana, Parmeet and their two sons Aaryamann and Ayushmaan portray a perfect family image, delving into their laughter and sorrow almost on a regular basis in their vlogs. In a recent conversation with their son Aryamann Sethi on his YouTube channel, Parmeet Sethi opened up about the challenges his marriage faced. What's Happening "I did the Art of Living course. Archana forced me to do it. We were going through a very bad time as husband and wife. We were fighting a lot. She said, come and do the course. I did not want to do it. I went to Bangalore, did the course," said Parmeet. He added, "After the course, mere andar jo jo cheezein thi, jo jo kachra pada hua tha in my soul, in my being, vo sab bahar aa gaya. (After the course, all the things bottled inside me came out.) I cried loudly for my sister who had died earlier. I cried to my heart's content. I used to diet a lot during that time, but during the meditation, I imagined myself eating rich food. After that, all my physical ailments were gone after that day." Archana is seven years older to Parmeet and his family didn't approve of the marriage initially. After Archana's first marriage ended in divorce, she was reluctant to marry again. She met Parmeet at a party and they bonded instantly. After being in a live-in relationship for four years, the couple eloped and got married secretly in 1992. Archana kept her wedding private to safeguard her acting career. Over the years, the couple proved their commitment to each other and emerged as one of the strongest couples in the B-town. Parmeet's family, later, accepted Archana. Archana Puran Singh now appears on The Great Indian Kapil Show along with her other series regulars. In A Nutshell Parmeet Sethi opened up about his marital challenges with wife Archana in a recent YouTube vlog. With the passage of time, they have overcome the hurdles.

Gwyneth Paltrow helps turn Astronomer's infamy on its head
To take control of a scandal that turned a previously obscure data-operations firm into a household name practically overnight requires some skillful cunning. And, it turns out, the Hollywood A-listers Gwyneth Paltrow and Ryan Reynolds . On Friday, Astronomer — the technology company whose married CEO was caught on video at a Coldplay concert canoodling with a human resources executive at the firm who is not his wife — capitalized on the heightened attention when it released a video response featuring Paltrow as a 'temporary spokesperson.' As in: Paltrow, the ex-wife of Coldplay frontman Chris Martin, and the woman who introduced the world to the concept of 'conscious uncoupling,' became the face of a niche tech startup with roughly 300 employees operating in 'a small corner of the data and AI world,' as the interim CEO described it in a LinkedIn post. 'Astronomer has gotten a lot of questions over the last few days and they wanted me to answer the most common ones,' Paltrow says directly to camera in a video posted on Astronomer's social channels. The first question then appears on-screen: 'OMG! What the actual f' 'Yes!' she responds, a hint of knowing and exasperation in her voice. 'Astronomer is the best place to run Apache Airflow .' She adds: 'We've been thrilled so many people have a newfound interest in data workflow automation .' Viewers were given a peek at what Astronomer actually does, a move that 'was quite clever, I must say,' said Michel Pham, a business professor and marketing strategy expert at Columbia Business School. For companies that abruptly find themselves embroiled in scandal, he explained, using humor to capitalize on the spotlight requires a deft touch. It's little surprise that the tongue-in-cheek ad has since ricocheted across the internet. On Instagram, the video has so far received over 64,000 likes. (For context, Astronomer's previous post, about a recent data conference in Berlin, had received 135 likes as of Monday afternoon.) On YouTube, the ad has been viewed more than half a million times. The video was produced by Reynolds' production company, Maximum Effort, the company confirmed in an email statement, but it's unclear who reached out to whom or when, exactly, the company was hired. Neither Astronomer nor representatives for Paltrow responded to requests for comment. Reynolds founded Maximum Effort in 2018 and has since cultivated a reputation for creating snarky advertising and viral content that the actor calls 'fastvertising.' 'A lot of times we're working really quickly, working with limited budgets, but we're also acknowledging and playing with the cultural landscape,' he said in a 2022 interview with The Washington Post. 'We try to create marketing that's moving at the exact same speed as culture is.' When companies face negative scandals that are related to their core product, like a mechanical failure in a car, for instance, there is little space for humor, Pham said. 'But in this case, this was about an affair and most people, I think, understand that affairs happen and that it doesn't necessarily compromise what this brand does.' That gave the company leeway to play along with the conversation. Pham pointed to an example in Britain where, in 2018, fast food chain KFC had no chickens to serve its customers because of supply-chain disruptions and was forced to close hundreds of outlets across the country. Days later, instead of an apology statement from an executive, the company took out newspaper ads with a simple message. 'FCK' — an anagram of its own name and a thinly veiled obscenity — followed by a tagline: 'A chicken restaurant without any chicken. It's not ideal.' 'They were pretty candid and they acknowledged the problem,' Pham said. Another example of a brand turning infamy into a positive came in 2019 in a move again orchestrated by Maximum Effort. When exercise equipment manufacturer Peloton released a holiday ad showing a man giving his wife a bike, the 30-second spot was swiftly criticized for being sexist and dystopian. Within hours of its release, Maximum Effort reached out to the woman in the commercial, who came to be known as 'Peloton Wife,' and a few days later, she starred in an ad that showed her drinking Reynolds' gin with her friends, toasting 'to new beginnings.' In 2014, Prince pulled off a similar marketing twist, or what comedian Dave Chappelle described as a marketing 'judo move.' In 2004, Chappelle had played Prince, dressed in a 'Purple Rain'-era ruffled suit, in a sketch on 'Chappelle's Show.' When Prince released the single 'Breakfast Can Wait' almost a decade later, he used a picture of Chappelle dressed as him. 'You make fun of Prince in a sketch and he'll just use you in his album cover,' Chappelle told 'Tonight Show' host Jimmy Fallon. 'What am I going to do? Sue him for using a picture of me dressed up like him?' he said. 'That's checkmate right there.'

‘Third World Who?': UK Couple Says Goa Shopping Experience Tops London, NYC And Dubai
Last Updated: The video showcases a smart changing room setup in India that a British couple says they've never seen before. A British couple was left amazed by a unique shopping experience at a store in Goa. Liam and Dani Cross, who run the YouTube channel Travel With The Crosses, shared a video showcasing an innovative changing room setup they hadn't encountered even in London, Dubai, or New York. Changing Room That Tracks What You Carry The couple visited the Azorte store in South Goa, where Liam picked up three clothing items and walked into the trial room. As soon as he entered, a screen behind him displayed all three items along with their sizes. 'Look how from the future these changing rooms are," Dani said while recording the moment. Touchscreen Features In the video, Dani explained how the smart mirror detected the items automatically. If a different size was needed, all it took was a tap on the screen to place a request. 'The mirror there picks up everything. And then, say you want another size, you can choose one and ask them to bring it," she said. The screen also suggested clothing combinations and allowed users to ask the staff to bring those to try out. 'THIS IS NOT IN DUBAI, THIS IS NOT IN LONDON, THIS IS NOT IN NEW YORK… This is INDIA. I'm sorry, but India?! Third world who?! This is better than shopping in Wales!! Back where the salesman 'goes to the back" to check if they have your size… when clearly they leave the room scroll on TikTok for a minute, then come back empty-handed. Gotta give it to India for the shopping experience," the couple wrote in the caption. Online Response The video gathered nearly four lakh views. Many appreciated the couple for showing a different side of India. One user commented, 'Good to see someone who's showing the positive side of India." Another added, 'Thanks for showing the cool side of India, unlike other western travellers who just show slums and poverty!" 'This is amazing! Every changing room everywhere should have this!" someone expressed. 'Omg, this is the coolest thing. Initially, I was like ooh fancy, could be Dubai/London/US etc., and then I read the caption and you said India, and I was like daaaaaamn, and then you said Goa, and I said WTF!!! I'm from Goa and this was so so cool! So glad you guys are loving Goa!" a person exclaimed. The mirror inside the changing rooms at Reliance Retail's Azorte stores uses RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) technology, which helps detect products as soon as they come within approximately 10 meters of the installed sensor, according to Cashify.
