Blake Lively Cooks With Couture; Dazzles In Rahul Mishra's 3D Pencil Skirt
For the promotions of her latest film, Another Simple Favor, Hollywood star Blake Lively stepped out in Rahul Mishra Couture.
Blake Lively wore Rahul Mishra's Cityscape 3D pencil skirt from the Couture Spring Summer 2025 collection, The Pale Blue Dot. Styled by herself, she paired the hand embroidered 3D skirt with black cropped tank top. The skirt added edgy drama to her look and we would love to see Blake explore more Indian couture in her future public appearances.
Cooking with Couture, Blake was spotted with her co-stars Anna Kendrick, Henry Golding and director Paul Feig making raviolis, pizzas and martinis at Evento in New York. Blake tried her hands at making ravioli along with the chef present and also interacted with the guests who attended the promotional event.
Blake's style quotient has always been an extension of her personality. By keeping it Casual with Couture, Blake just set the tone for your summer wardrobe. Edgy with a dash of fun! Blake accessorised with statement jewellery pieces featuring a bracelet, earrings and a couple of rings. Her signature blonde wavy hair and minimal makeup look added to her stunning style of the day.
Decoding Blake Lively's New York style statement:
Hand embroidered with silk threads and sequins on three dimensional origami structures, the silhouette of the skirt is further defined by a strategic placement of these forms.
Rahul Mishra's couture collection, The Pale Blue Dot explores the fragility and impermanence of human life, environmental concerns, and the contemplation of a more sustainable way of living—articulating the human dwelling in an achromatic palette. It is rooted in hope and healing, and it envisions a future where humanity rethinks its relationship with nature, supported by purposeful craftsmanship and a commitment to more mindful consumption.
Rahul Mishra's nature-inspired couture collections have caught the attention of an array of celebrities from across the globe. Earlier this week, celebrated American singer-songwriter and entertainer, Nicole Scherzinger was also spotted wearing Rahul Mishra, as she performed at the Entertainment Community Fund. Styled by Michael Philouze, Nicole's stylish look featured Look 25, the Surreal Space corset in black and she paired it with a classic satin silk draped skirt from the Spring 2025 couture collection.

‘Sholay' ushered in tech revolution, changed movie experience for ever
Kolkata: On a cool Oct morning in 1975, nearly two months after 'Sholay' hit Bombay and Ahmedabad screens, the film finally unspooled at Kolkata's Jyoti Cinema. The delay hardly mattered. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now What followed was nothing short of cinematic history — a run that lasted 103 weeks, a week short of two years, and rewrote the rulebook for how the city experienced movies. "For Kolkata audiences, 'Sholay' was not just a film; it was an event, an initiation into a new era of spectacle," said Jyoti Choukhani, owner of Bharat Laxmi Studio and Navina Cinema Hall. Movie halls needed superior projection quality to have that effect. Thus, the upgrades were far from cosmetic. In the mid-1970s, most Indian films were shot in 35 mm, but Sholay was converted to 70 mm with stereophonic sound in London — a process impossible to do in India at the time, Choukhani added. Jyoti's technical preparedness meant that when Kolkata finally got 'Sholay', it wasn't just screening a film, it was experiencing an imported technological marvel. The original owners of Jyoti, the Mansata family, went to extraordinary lengths to ensure that the viewing experience matched the grandeur of the film, said Asish Banerjee, the current secretary of the Eastern India Motion Picture Association (EIMPA). They installed a massive 70 mm screen — one of the few in eastern India — and a state-of-the-art stereophonic sound system tailored for 'Sholay'. "I vividly recall the scene where Amitabh tosses the coin and it lands on its edge," said longtime moviegoer Gaurav Gayen, now in his early 70s. "The sound was so sharp and the screen so large, it felt as if the coin landed right at my feet." "My parents' wedding anniversary is always remembered as 'the year Sholay came'," chuckled film-buff Anirban Chatterjee. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now "It became a time marker for our lives." Jyoti's success with 'Sholay' also underscored how a well-equipped cinema could draw repeat crowds and sustain long runs without deficit matinee shows — rare in Kolkata's Hindi film circuit. Not only Jyoti, 'Sholay' was in high demand across Bengal. "Even at Berachampa, our hall (Banirupa) ran housefull for months together after my father managed a print after a long struggle. I still remember how the movie brought fortune to my family," said Subhas Sen, now EIMPA vice-president. His is one of the few theatres from the 'Sholay' era that still survives the flux. Industry insiders note that 'Sholay' also changed the economics for exhibitors. "A film of that scale meant better ticket pricing, longer bookings, and stable revenue for nearly two years," said a retired cinema distributor. "It gave theatres the confidence to invest in sound, projection, and seating." Off-screen, the film's record-breaking run coincided with the coining of the term 'Bollywood' and a redefinition of Hindi commercial cinema. Gabbar Singh's "Kitne aadmi the?" and Jai-Veeru's friendship anthem entered everyday speech. Britannia even used Gabbar in a biscuit ad — the first time a Hindi film villain was tapped to sell a consumer product. Looking back, the story of 'Sholay' in Kolkata is as much about new cinema vision as it is about the film itself. By marrying technological ambition with a once-in-a-generation film, the Mansatas gave the city a cinematic memory that still echoes, stereophonically, through time.

Viral: Woman Shares Hack To Keep Dal Warm While Eating, Internet Is Not Impressed
Food is the universal language that brings people together. However, some dishes are best enjoyed only when they are adequately warm. Whether it's a steaming hot bowl of soup or a perfectly grilled steak, the joy of eating is often ruined when our food gets cold during the eating process. A woman recently shared her hack for keeping dal warm while eating, but it got a lukewarm reception from foodies. In a video shared on Instagram, the woman was seen eating dal and chawal. After eating a spoonful of dal, she realises that it has gotten cold. Instead of warming it up on the stove or microwave, she removes the gas burner stand and brings it to the table. The woman sets up a tealight candle and places the burner over it. As the gentle flame warms up her dal, she can savour every spoonful without making several rounds of the kitchen. The side note read, "Best trick to keep your food hot while eating." Watch the video here: View this post on Instagram A post shared by Maroo Radhika (@radhikamaroo123) Instagram users were not impressed with this food-heating hack: One user wrote, "Just one Another added, "It will take so long to find the stuff, it is better to just heat it on the stove." "The glass of the dining table will crack," read a comment. "Indian version of 5 mins craft/diy," joked a user. "Just created a problem for a solution," another chimed in. What do you think of this hack? Let us know in the comments below.
