Hina Khan is battling stage 3 breast cancer with incredible bravery and tenacity. She has also been documenting her journey ever since the diagnosis of the disease in 2024 to encourage those dealing with similar struggles. She often shares details about her treatment, including chemotherapy, surgery, and continuing immunotherapy on Instagram.
In one of her posts last year, she highlighted that the only way to win this battle is to embrace it and accept it. She even first cut her hair short, and later decided to shave her head, all captured in a video on Instagram. It showed Hina sitting on a chair while a person shaved her head with a trimmer.

Bipasha Basu slams trolls fat-shaming her for weight gain after childbirth: ‘Memes do not define me'
Actor Bipasha Basu is not letting any meme, mocking her for her weight gain after childbirth, define her. She recently took a strong stance against trolls who were body-shaming her post-partum look, asserting that their hurtful comments don't define her identity or self-worth. Also read: Mika Singh feels Bipasha Basu is out of work because of her attitude: 'The drama she created on Dangerous ensured...' Instead, Bipasha pointed out that such behaviour reveals a disturbing aspect of society's mindset towards women. Bipasha took to Instagram to react to the online chatter around her weight gain after embracing motherhood. She expressed her thoughts in the comments section of a reel that criticised the unfair expectations and pressures women face after childbirth. The reel referenced an Instagram post featuring a collage of Bipasha's past and present photos, set to the lyrics of Night Changes, which seemed to emphasise the changes in her appearance over time. Shweta Vijay Nair, a former Miss India and beauty influencer, took to Instagram to speak out against the unrealistic expectations placed on women, particularly mothers. In her reel, she highlighted the emotional and physical toll of motherhood, emphasising how women are expected to juggle multiple roles while facing judgment for even the smallest imperfections in their appearance. A post shared by Shweta (@shwetavijaynair) Bipasha reacted to the whole issue in the comment section. 'Thank you for your clear words... Hope the human race does not remain so shallow and so low forever… and they encouarge and applaud women for the million roles they play each day,' she wrote in the comment section. Bipasha continued, 'I am a super confident woman with a very evolved loving partner and family. Memes and trolls do not define me ever… nor did they make me who i am. But these are deeply disturbing reflections of the society towards women . Another woman in my place could be deeply affected and scarred with the viciousness'. 'Anyways if we have more strong voices and atleast women understanding and applauding women for who they are then women will rise higher and higher :) We are unstoppable ladies,' she ended. Her husband and actor Karan Singh Grover wrote, 'We should be putting all the women we know and love on a pedestal and praying to them. They are the gods/goddesses we should pray to. In fact I believe that god/ source is a feminine energy. Nothing else could have created something as beautiful as life'. He also thanked her for 'being so awesome'. Bipasha and Karan welcomed their first child on November 12, 2022, six years after their marriage. Taking to Instagram, Bipasha had shared a post through which she announced the name of her daughter. The picture read, "12.11.2022. Devi Basu Singh Grover. The physical manifestation of our love and blessings of Ma is here now and she is divine'. Since then, the actor has focused on her daughter.

Why locally inspired design makes for a more meaningful home
The other day, scrolling through Instagram, I was accosted by a sponsored post pitching an AI design tool. Responding to descriptive prompts like 'contemporary" and 'rustic", it could turn out a vast number of stylistic options for one space—basically, you skip the part about process and research and just embrace spatial personality dysregulation. This is a world where the word 'contemporary" conjures rounded beige boucle sofas and neutral walls, where 'rustic" signifies live-edge tables and dark wood accents. There is a complete lack of context. They could be from everywhere, anywhere and somewhere all at once, spaces that seem so stereotyped yet fanatically banal that you cannot even guess a cultural or geographical connection. Eerily, though, the images that showed up looked similar to many of the real-life projects that we see at the moment. At the same time, some of the most popular subjects on design platforms are topics like 'How to design a puja room". A recent favourite among the readers of the design content website that I run was a story on the subject of Indian-isms in design. We are going through a period where there are all sorts of options available. You can go the route of the ubiquitous, or you cast a vote for a bit of sociocultural representation in your space. Design for Serendipity As someone who spends a lot of time looking at images and reading about projects, I know that it costs more when your design rebuffs its cultural and geographical context. Even if you happen to use AI technology to get a design, inevitably the price of buying things that look like they're from other places takes a lot of resources and the results are far from satisfying. Far more interesting and pocket-friendly is to buy local. Design your space with the same approach as the farm-to-table principle for food. Do a little less, buy things off the cuff, see what happens when you make a few mistakes. Spaces are more interesting when they're created with a certain effortlessness but there is no way to articulate effortlessness if things have found their way into a room with excessive consideration. Also read: How sound and smell define the spaces we inhabit Spaces when articulated with a nod to the local context, become so unique that you cannot have that interpretation anywhere else. Take the example of Art Deco. I quote this style in particular because 2025 is being celebrated as the 100th birth year of Art Deco. The design movement that celebrated excess in the West came to India and was reshaped in local formats across the country. In south India, the designs are informed by local patterns like kolams, or in Chettinad, Art Deco is presented in entirely domesticated settings. In the Western format, it is always associated with shiny, gleaming, geometric and decorative excesses, while in India it takes on different formats. A recent travelling exhibition, Eckart Muthesius and Manik Bagh—Pioneering Modernism in India, showed its influence on the palace of the maharajah of Indore, Yashwant Rao Holkar II, while in south India, it has a populist tenor as seen in its influence on theatres, office buildings and homes. Applying the principle of adaptability can mean different things in different situations. In architecture, it is about working with legacy techniques and local materiality as far as possible. In interior design it can be far more difficult, because there's a lot of choice. Then it's really about what you don't do rather than what you do. I find that when spaces have a mix of low-brow and high-brow solutions, it presents a more compelling storyline. I was recently hunting for a bed for my guest room, and during a trip home to Kerala, I visited a friend who's been in the antiques furniture business for decades. I found a pair of antique rosewood single beds, slim and long at 4x6ft, that could take mattresses not more than 4 inches thick. I fell in love with them, but knew it would be a bit of an effort. It needed a custom-made mattress, and I wondered if some of my guests would take umbrage to the wooden slatted bed frame that feels different to the spine from a spring boxed bed frame. This despite the fact that according to most research, a firmer bed is better than a soft one. Also read: Designing a home that makes space for the humanity of the residents Anyway, I bought it. Having a piece of furniture in my home that comes from one of my favourite people and from a part of the country that is my heritage feels correct. To style it, I went back to images in old issues of Inside Outside and images from the home of late interior designer and art collector, Leela Shiveshwarkar. Buying the Right Sofa Another bug-bear of Indian interior design is the sofa. It is an unpleasant foraging experience, especially if you're on a budget. Of all the questions I am asked on the topic of design, 'where can I buy a sofa?" is the number one query. Finding a comfortable, well-priced sofa seems like one of the great design challenges homeowners in the country face. A sofa has to be both engineered and designed properly, and buying from a decent brand can push budgets over the cliff. On the other hand, it is not a piece that I would recommend you have made by a carpenter. To help out a friend who was asking the same question, recently I looked through some designers' work and landed on a design solution that I really liked. It was from an apartment project in Gulmohar Park, New Delhi, by interior designer Shivani Dogra. She refurbished an aged Ikea sofa by subtracting its basic elements and adding two layers of hand-tufted cotton mattresses. The handmade mattresses are more comfortable, and you can have them custom-made in any colour scheme. That means you end up with a solution that's unlike anything anyone else has. The addition of this very Indian accessory also gives the piece a charming relatability. An Ikea sofa refurbished with Indian mattresses seems to me like the perfect post-liberalisation design trick. A blend of all that is available as choice. When you have a space made up of imperfectly solved objects, things brought to life by stories, you create places with memory. This is important, particularly when a home is new. Spaces that have some creases, a bit of patina, rooms that look like they've been lived in. Or will age graciously—the way you could have foretold Sharmila Tagore would when you first watched her in Evening in Paris. There is to some places, just as with people, an elegance that is beyond just the selection of objects. That should be a sacred 'prompt" when designing a home.

5 wildlife sanctuaries in India for shutterbugs who love the wild side
If your idea of a perfect shot involves more growls than grins and more paw prints than passport stamps, welcome to the club of wild-hearted shutterbugs! Wildlife photography isn't just about waiting in jeeps and hoping a tiger blinks at your lens, it's a thrilling blend of patience, timing, and the occasional monkey trying to photobomb your frame. Ready to this? Here are five Indian wildlife sanctuaries where nature makes for the ideal backdrop of your photograph. Ranthambhore National Park , Rajasthan Ranthambhore is basically all about drama, with royal ruins draped in vines and the odd banyan tree posing, giving you the drama, history, and a dash of danger. The tigers here love a bit of limelight, especially around water bodies like Padam Talao. Capture them mid-prowl or mid-yawn, and you've got a frame worthy of awards and jealous Instagram DMs. Kaziranga National Park , Assam Kaziranga's one-horned rhinos know how to strike a pose, wait to find them against a backdrop of tall grasslands, swampy wetlands, and misty hills. With elephants plodding through, wild buffaloes grazing, birds doing aerial acrobatics, every corner here is a photo op waiting to happen. Sunderbans National Park, West Bengal The Sunderbans is less about crisp tiger portraits and more about mystery. This mangrove maze is home to the elusive Royal Bengal Tiger, and while you may not always spot one, the tension in the air? Totally photogenic. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like The Most Beautiful Women In The World Undo Think shifting tides, claw marks on tree trunks, and crocodiles playing peek-a-boo from under your boat. It's like the noir version of wildlife photography — thrilling, shadowy, and weirdly addictive. Keoladeo National Park, Rajasthan If you prefer wings over whiskers, Keoladeo is your feathery paradise. Once a royal duck hunting ground, it now hosts thousands of migratory birds — from vibrant kingfishers and cranes to the odd pelican with main-character energy. Bring your longest lens, because these birds are both camera-shy and dramatically fashionable. Mornings here are a meditative blend of fog, flutter, and the occasional splash. Periyar Wildlife Sanctuary, Kerala Periyar is where wildlife photography slows down, takes a deep breath, and goes cruising on a boat. Located around a peaceful lake in Thekkady, the sanctuary offers shots of elephants drinking at the shore, sambars hiding in the greenery, and otters being their adorable, slippery selves.
