Karan Johar
is set to host the Indian version of the popular American reality show, 'The Traitors'. After much speculation, the final list of contestants was finally unveiled and it includes many known names - from
Maheep Kapoor
, Anshula Kapoor (Arjun Kapoor's sister),
Raj Kundra
, Apoorva Mukhija, television stars like Karan Kundra, Sudhanshu Pandey among many others.
The contestants were introduced today at a grand event.
During the launch, Shilpa Shetty's husband Raj Kundra who was earlier seen with a mask after his release from jail after his alleged involvement in the pornography case. Talking about being a part of the show, Raj said that the mystery around him would work in his favour. He said, "Jabhi maine mask pehna hai, logon ko laga hai ki main kya chhupaa raha hoon. Ek mystery hai, and that mystery might help me in this game.
Ye Kalyug ka show hai Traitors, nobody knows who is your friend and enemy.
Toh yahi strategy lekar, I hope jo ye mystery hai woh mujhe help karegi. Aur last but not least, Karan sir host kar rahe hain… toh woh 'nepo husband' waala card toh zarur use karunga (Whenever I've worn the mask, people wonder what I'm hiding. There's a mystery, and that might help me here. This is a show for the age of Kalyug — no one knows who's a friend or enemy.
I'm entering with a strategy, and I hope the mystery works in my favour. And since Karan sir is hosting, I'm definitely going to play the 'nepo husband' card).'
Meanwhile, Maheep Kapoor who has been quite popular ever since she was a part of 'Fabulous Lives Of Bollywood Wives' is also a part of this show 'The Traitors'. Now though, Karan doesn't trust her. He said indicating the deceptive nature of the show, "I can't really trust her with anything now."
Meanwhile, Apoorva Mukhija made her first appearance after the whole Samay Raina show controversy where her name was involved. Talking about being a part of 'The Traitors', she said, "I think people just think being a red flag is about lying, manipulation and deception, and all of that is true. But to require that, you need brains, which unfortunately most of these people don't have. So I don't know if I'm the biggest red flag, but I use one more brain cell at all times.

V&A Storehouse Museum reignites 5000-year-old creative spark
Designed by Diller, Scofidio and Renfro, the firm behind New York's High Line Park, the building has space to show off objects too big to have been displayed very often before, including a 17th-century Mughal colonnade from India, a 1930s modernist office designed by Frank Lloyd Wright and a Pablo Picasso-designed stage curtain for a 1924 ballet, some 10 metres high A museum is like an iceberg. Most of it is out of sight. Most big collections have only a fraction of their items on display, with the rest locked away in storage. But not at the new V&A East Storehouse, where London's Victoria and Albert Museum has thrown open its storerooms for visitors to view — and in many cases touch — the items within. The 16,000-square-metre building, bigger than 30 basketball courts, holds more than 250,000 objects, 350,000 books and 1,000 archives. Wandering its huge, three-story collections hall feels like a trip to IKEA, but with treasures at every turn. The V&A is Britain's national museum of design, performance and applied arts, and the storehouse holds aisle after aisle of open shelves lined with everything from ancient Egyptian shoes to Roman pottery, ancient Indian sculptures, Japanese armour, Modernist furniture, a Piaggio scooter and a brightly painted garbage can from the Glastonbury Festival. 'It's 5,000 years of creativity,' said Kate Parsons, the museum's director of collection care and access. It took more than a year, and 379 truckloads, to move the objects from the museum's former storage facility in west London to the new site. Get up close to objects: In the museum's biggest innovation, anyone can book a one-on-one appointment with any object, from a Vivienne Westwood mohair sweater to a tiny Japanese netsuke figurine. Most of the items can even be handled, with exceptions for hazardous materials, such as Victorian wallpaper that contains arsenic. The Order an Object service offers 'a behind-the-scenes, very personal, close interaction' with the collection, Parsons said as she showed off one of the most requested items so far: a 1954 pink silk taffeta Balenciaga evening gown. Nearby in one of the study rooms were a Bob Mackie-designed military tunic worn by Elton John on his 1981 world tour and two silk kimonos laid out ready for a visit. Parsons said there has been 'a phenomenal response' from the public since the building opened at the end of May. Visitors have ranged from people seeking inspiration for their weddings to art students and 'someone last week who was using equipment to measure the thread count of an 1850 dress.' She says strangers who have come to view different objects often strike up conversations. 'It's just wonderful,' Parsons said. 'You never quite know. … We have this entirely new concept and of course we hope, and we believe, and we do audience research, and we think that people are going to come. But until they did, and came through the doors, we didn't know.' A new cultural district: The V&A's flagship museum in London's affluent South Kensington district, founded in the 1850s, is one of Britain's biggest tourist attractions. The Storehouse is across town in the Olympic Park, a post-industrial swath of east London that hosted the 2012 summer games. As part of post-Olympic regeneration, the area is now home to a new cultural quarter that includes arts and fashion colleges, a dance theatre and another V&A branch, due to open next year. The Storehouse has hired dozens of young people from the surrounding area, which includes some of London's most deprived districts. Designed by Diller, Scofidio and Renfro, the firm behind New York's High Line Park, the building has space to show off objects too big to have been displayed very often before, including a 17th-century Mughal colonnade from India, a 1930s modernist office designed by Frank Lloyd Wright and a Pablo Picasso-designed stage curtain for a 1924 ballet, some 10 metres high. Also on a monumental scale are large chunks of vanished buildings, including a gilded 15th-century ceiling from the Torrijos Palace in Spain and a slab of the concrete façade of Robin Hood Gardens, a demolished London housing estate. Not a hushed temple of art, this is a working facility. Conversation is encouraged and forklifts beep in the background. Workers are finishing the David Bowie Centre, a home for the late London-born musician's archive of costumes, musical instruments, letters, lyrics and photos that is due to open at the Storehouse in September. Museums seek transparency One aim of the Storehouse is to expose the museum's inner workings, through displays delving into all aspects of the conservators' job – from the eternal battle against insects to the numbering system for museum contents — and a viewing gallery to watch staff at work. The increased openness comes as museums in the U.K. are under increasing scrutiny over the origins of their collections. They face pressure to return objects acquired in sometimes contested circumstances during the days of the British Empire Senior curator Georgia Haseldine said the V&A is adopting a policy of transparency, 'so that we can talk very openly about where things have come from, how they ended up in the V&A's collection, and also make sure that researchers, as well as local people and people visiting from all around the world, have free and equitable access to these objects. 'On average, museums have one to five percent of their collections on show,' she said. 'What we're doing here is saying, No, this whole collection belongs to all of us. This is a national collection and you should have access to it.' That is our fundamental principle.'

Ballet nimbles its way into prominence in Kerala capital
While the capital's cultural milieu is not unfamiliar to dance forms, ballet, with its soft movements that resemble a river sashaying down hills, spreading over valleys, and cascading through turns with a tip-toe, is new. Yet, unbeknownst to many, this very dance form has had a presence in the city for the past ten years. Isha Mahesh, known as Khushi among her students, and her dance school, On Pointe, has taught ballet to over 150 students since 2015, when it was established. The Mumbaikar was trained in ballet since childhood. Her life was around the swan-like hand gestures and body movements that blended into melodious music till the time an ankle injury forced her to slow down. She then moved to Thiruvananthapuram, where she started to train in Indian classical dance forms and martial arts, albeit with a pain of realisation deep down that she would never be able to pursue her dream of ballet.
