Radhika opted for a serene cyan-green suit that exuded simplicity and elegance. The kurta featured a flattering V-neckline, long sleeves, and a flared silhouette, adding to its relaxed yet graceful appeal. The soft cotton fabric was adorned with intricate floral embroidery that spread across the entire suit, bringing in a touch of femininity. To complete her ensemble, Radhika paired the kurta with a matching dupatta, which boasted embroidered borders and straight-fit pants.
Radhika kept her makeup minimal, opting for a bare-faced glow. Her luscious tresses were left loose in a middle partition, cascading effortlessly over her shoulders.
Anant Ambani, on the other hand, chose a classic navy blue kurta featuring a collared neckline, folded sleeves, and a relaxed fit. He paired it with matching pants, while his long, swept-back hair and full beard added to his signature look.
Together, the Ambani couple embraced simplicity, proving that style doesn't always come wrapped in luxury.
Anant Ambani, the youngest son of Mukesh and Nita Ambani, is a business executive at Reliance Industries. In July 2024, he tied the knot with Radhika Merchant, the youngest daughter of Viren and Shaila Merchant. Their grand three-day wedding celebration was nothing short of spectacular, drawing a star-studded guest list that included global celebrities, Hollywood icons, political leaders, and esteemed dignitaries from across the world.

Manisha Koirala: Age is not a barrier to start looking after oneself
Actress and cancer crusader Manisha Koirala says she has come to a realization that 'age is not a barrier to start looking after oneself' and added that she is now devoted to the 'well-being of body, mind, and spirit'. Manisha took to Instagram, where she shared three pictures of herself from the gym posing alongside her friend looking stunning in athleisure. For the caption, she wrote: 'Age is not a barrier to start looking after oneself… I may have come to this realisation a little late, but better late than never. Here I am—devoted to the well-being of body, mind, and spirit.' The actress credited her friend for inspiring her in many ways. She added: 'Blessed to have great friends in life @namgyal_singh who inspires me—not just in fitness, but in how she defeats life's toughest moments with strength and a warm smile.' Talking about womanhood, she added: 'Here's to womanhood (never an easy ride), to life, to friendship, and to aging with grace. Here's to choosing people who add meaning to our lives.' The 54-year-old actress was last seen in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's debut OTT series 'Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar'. The show was set in the red-light district of Heera Mandi in Lahore during the Indian independence movement. It touched on the topic of the lives of tawaifs and their intersection with political and personal struggles under British colonial rule. Talking about the actress, Manisha is one of the most popular and highest-paid actresses of her time. She made her acting debut with the Nepali film Pheri Bhetaula in 1989, and later debuted in Indian cinema with the Hindi drama Saudagar in 1991. She was then seen in films such as 'Bombay', 'Agni Sakshi', 'Indian, Gupt: The Hidden Truth', 'Kachche Dhaage', 'Mudhalvan', 'Company, 1942: A Love Story', 'Akele Hum Akele Tum', 'Khamoshi: The Musical, Dil Se.. and Lajja'. Over the course of the next decade, she worked in unconventional and art-house films, such as the survival drama 'Escape From Taliban', 'Elektra' and 'I Am'. It was in 2012, when she was diagnosed with last stage ovarian cancer and underwent a year-long treatment. Manisha made a successful recovery by mid-2014 and returned with the coming-of-age drama Dear Maya in 2017.

Karan Johar Gets His Face Insured? 'Close Friend' Inspired Filmmaker For This Step
Previously, Karan Johar was also accused of turning to Ozempic for his weight loss transformation. Karan Johar is back in the headlines. This time, for a viral Reddit post which claims the filmmaker recently got his face insured. Yes, you read it right. Recently, the post grabbed everyone's attention after it claimed that KJo recently flew to South Korea to get his face insured. Reportedly, the filmmaker was 'inspired' by one of his close friends from the South film industry to take this step. 'Rumour has it Karan Johar secretly flew to South Korea multiple times to get… his face insured. Yup, inspired by a close friend, and apparently it's a trend there. Insiders say he's been way more chill since—smiling more, less snappy, even gave a rare compliment at work 😳 No word from him yet, but now we're all wondering: does this cover acne, sunburns, wrinkles? And how much is that premium?! 👀" the post read. If this is true, Karan Johar is not the first Indian celebrity to get his body part insured. Amitabh Bachchan also has his voice insured. It is said that John Abraham also has his ass insured. Meanwhile, Karan Johar's physical transformation has also been the talk of the town for a long time. Previously, it was said that the Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani director turned to Ozempic, a drug approved for Type 2 diabetes that's recently been trending for its weight loss side effects. However, in a recent interview with Raj Shamani, KJo revealed that his weight loss journey had nothing to do with any medication. 'I have always been battling the bulge," he said and then added, 'I've tried thousands of diets, five hundred kinds of workouts, every type you can imagine. Every diet, every workout routine, I've tried it all. I've been combating this for years." Karan further revealed that it wasn't until he got his blood work done recently that he discovered he had thyroid and other health issues that needed attention. This marked a turning point in his fitness journey. 'It was only recently, after years, when I got my blood work done that I found out I had certain thyroid issues and other problems that I needed to fix and I've been working on correcting them," he shared. On persistent rumours linking him to popular weight-loss drugs like Ozempic and Mounjaro, Karan responded firmly. 'Now people ask me, 'Are you on Mounjaro? Are you on Ozempic?' I'm tired of these comments. People don't know my truth. You don't know." First Published: June 07, 2025, 09:09 IST

This Indian fish can climb trees (here's where you can find it)
Ever heard of a fish that can climb trees? Sounds like something out of a tall tale, right? But nope—this one's 100% real. Say hello to the climbing perch (scientific name: Anabas testudineus), a little fish found in India that doesn't just swim, it walks on land and might even scale a tree branch or two! This cool creature is a freshwater fish that's common across South and Southeast Asia—places like India, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka. It belongs to the climbing gourami family, which already hints that it's not your average fish. What makes the climbing perch so special? It can breathe air—yep, just like we do! Thanks to a special organ in its head called a labyrinth organ, this fish doesn't need to stay underwater all the time. As long as it stays damp, it can survive on land for hours. It uses its pectoral fins and tail to sort of wiggle or 'walk' its way across land. That means it can move between ponds or ditches and even climb over logs or low-hanging branches. Wild, right? In India, you'll mostly find this fish in freshwater places like rivers, ponds, rice fields, and especially in the eastern and northeastern states. It goes by different local names: koi in Bengali, kawai in Assamese, and kabai in Maithili. The climbing perch is a real survivor—it does well in both still and flowing water and can tough it out in places where other fish would be toast. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch vàng CFDs với mức chênh lệch giá thấp nhất IC Markets Đăng ký Undo That makes it pretty impressive when it comes to adapting to tough environments. Oh, and people don't just admire it for its superpowers—it's also a popular dish in many Indian households. It's tasty, packed with nutrients, and often sold live in markets because it can stay alive out of water for ages. Super fresh! In some areas, folks even believe that releasing a climbing perch into a water body brings good luck and keeps illnesses away. So it's got some cultural cred too. Want to spot one? Your best bet is to head to rice fields and wetlands in eastern India during the monsoon. Go early in the morning or late in the afternoon—that's when they're most likely to be on the move between puddles or chilling on wet ground. The climbing perch is basically nature showing off—a fish that can cross land and maybe even go vertical. It's one of those quirky little creatures that remind you how weird and wonderful the natural world really is. So next time you're out exploring the wetlands, keep an eye out. You just might spot this land-loving fish in action!
