Archana Puran Singh's son orders palak paneer in Swiss restaurant, ice-cold glacier water reminds Parmeet Sethi of Mumbai
Archana Puran Singh and her husband Parmeet Sethi, who've developed quite a devoted following on YouTube, are currently posting videos of their trip to Switzerland with their two sons, Ayushmaan and Aryamann. After sharing videos of their business class flight to the popular tourist destination, and then vlogging about their paragliding adventures, the family spent a day doing several adventure sports in the town of Lucerne. They will soon head to Zurich for more fun.
After having spent a few days in Switzerland, Archana and her family began craving Indian food. They went to a spot named Kaanchi, on the recommendation of someone they knew. Archana's sons, both of whom are big fans of paneer, immediately ordered a portion each of paneer tikka, palak paneer, and chili paneer for the table. Parmeet, the only meat-eater of the family, ordered a mutton dish. Ayushmaan said, 'It's funny how Indian food tastes even better abroad.' Archana added, 'Look at us eating such good Indian food in Switzerland.' The staff all knew Archana, and posed with the entire family for pictures.

But before their meal, they went on adventures on the Swiss slopes. Parmeet washed his face at a rest stop, and remarked that the ice-cold glacier water reminded him of Mumbai for some reason. The family went tobogganing, and also decided to go on a ride through the forest. In this ride, they were harnessed onto a metal rod, which guided them through the forest. 'This is how we do stunts in the movies,' Archana said.
Their fans were happy to see them happy. 'May God bless you with more wealth health and happiness,' one person wrote. Another person commented, 'I think you should make more travel vlogs. Too good!!' Over the last few months, Archana and her family has been posting food vlogs on their channel, after going on adventures trying to identify the best restaurants in the city selling dishes such as dosa, momo, pizza, pasta, vadapao, pao bhaji, and more.

Who Pays In Case Of A Plane Crash? All About Travel Insurance After Ahmedabad Tragedy
Last Updated: An Air India plane with 242 passengers crashed after takeoff from Ahmedabad, causing casualties. Know about travel insurance and what happens in the case of a flight mishap. A London-bound Air India plane carrying 242 passengers and crew crashed moments after taking off from the Ahmedabad airport on Thursday afternoon. Several casualties were feared. The tragic Air India crash in Ahmedabad has raised pressing questions about passenger safety and the financial aftermath of such disasters. The Boeing aircraft, which could be seen losing altitude quickly, crashed in Meghaninagar area near the Ahmedabad international airport around 2 pm. From airline liabilities to travel insurance payouts, here's a breakdown of how compensation works after a plane crash — and what every air traveller should know. Airline Liability: What Are Airlines Legally Bound To Pay? In India, airline liabilities in the event of death or injury are governed by international conventions such as the Montreal Convention, 1999, to which India is a signatory. Under this, airlines are liable to pay: Up to 128,821 special drawing rights (SDRs) (around Rs 1.4 crore) per passenger in case of death or bodily injury, irrespective of fault. Compensation beyond that limit is also possible if the airline is proven negligent. For international flights, this compensation becomes mandatory under the Convention, but Indian domestic airlines often follow similar standards under DGCA guidelines. Many comprehensive travel insurance policies offer: Experts, however, said the benefit goes only to policyholders who actively opt for and purchase a travel insurance plan before flying. Many Indian flyers still overlook this option, especially for domestic flights. What If A Traveller Didn't Buy Travel Insurance? If you didn't buy separate travel insurance, you may still be eligible for: Some passengers are covered under group insurance plans offered by tour operators or employer-sponsored travel policies. Legal Battles: When Compensation Isn't Straightforward In several past incidents, families of crash victims have had to wait months or even years for compensation, especially when: The crash is under investigation Liability is disputed The passenger did not have any travel insurance or nominee details In such cases, families may have to approach consumer courts, civil courts, or grievance redressal bodies like the Insurance Ombudsman. Why Insurance is Non-Negotiable The Ahmedabad crash is a grim reminder that air travel, though statistically safe, is not risk-free. The financial and emotional impact on families can be devastating, and insurance can at least ease part of the burden, the expert said. Things every traveller should do: N Chandrasekaran, chairman of Air India, said, 'With profound sorrow I confirm that Air India flight, AI 171 operating Ahmedabad-London Gatwick was involved in a tragic accident today. Our thoughts and deepest condolences are with the families and loved ones of all those affected by this devastating event. At this moment, our primary focus is on supporting all the affected people and their families. We are doing everything in our power to assist the emergency response teams at the site and to provide all necessary support and care to those impacted." An emergency centre has been activated and support team have been set up for families seeking information, he added. tags : Air India Location : New Delhi, India, India First Published: June 12, 2025, 15:10 IST News business Who Pays In Case Of A Plane Crash?

Go royalcore. This style guide shows you how
Fashion inspired by royalty has always been around but in the past few years, the trend – owing to OTT shows like The Crown, Bridgerton, and the more recent Indian outing Royals – has seen a massive upsurge. So much so that we now have 'Royalcore' as an entire aesthetic on social media, and youngsters willingly adopting this regal, maximalist fashion like they were born to the manor. Royalcore fashion is all about clothes that spell understated luxury. Think tailored suits, voluminous skirts, fitted corsets, coats and gowns made from rich fabrics like velvet, silk, tweed and cashmere. The colours hover over muted colours like white, pale yellow, light blue and light green for day wear and deep lush tones like claret, purple, royal blue, dark green and black for evening wear, all accented with a touch of gold. Also read: Get your cues for ocean-inspired fashion here Royalcore is aspirational, but as TikTok videos out there will tell you, not entirely inaccessible. As this compilation will show you, it's about pairing sharply tailored outfits with snazzy accessories like silk scarfs, lace gloves, and pumps in eye-catching shades. SLEEK SONNET Royalcore is about saying it with accessories as much as it is about clothes. Let's start with handbags. Skip bulky totes and backpacks that lend the feeling of you carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders. Instead, go for chic top handle bags like The Row's 'Nia' tote. Crafted from smooth leather it comes with a polished gold-tone handle and optional shoulder strap and just enough space to hold your phone, keys and lipstick or compact. Available on ₹2.99 lakhs. LI'L WOMAN Regency-period hit series, Bridgerton, has got everyone fitting themselves into flowy gowns in bright colours. It has also pushed the popularity of Gen Z-fave brands like Selkie Collection who are known for their royalcore inspired collections. A good example is this floor-length empire waist gown with a cascading skirt made from three layers of cotton gauze, ponte fabric at the bust and elastic puff sleeves. It gives off 'Penelope Featherington' vibes that her beau Colin Bridgerton would approve. Available on ₹29,100. NATTY KNOT For men, a royalty-inspired ensemble would check off essentials like a tailored jacket or suit, a crisp formal shirt or polo shirt and loafers. Upgrade the look with snazzy accessories like silk scarves and brooches that also tell a story. We've got our eyes on this navy blue scarf from label Drake. Made from a luxurious wool and silk blend, it features a 'Mughal' pattern of hounds, eagles and unicorns. Available on ₹33,747. Also read: Bollywood makeup artists share quick tips for Cannes-inspired bridal looks LACE & GRACE Corsets were worn daily by women of royal families because corsets with their rigid boning effected 'an upright, royal posture", says Aesthetics Wikipedia. If you are wondering where to start, start with a corset that's simple and elegant like this overbust corset in powder pink dupion silk with black lace overlay at the bust and lace flowers at the hips. The muted colour and delicate lace make it a versatile option that can be worn with a fitted black skirt or with a jacket and pants. Available on ₹28,538. BEDAZZLER The love affair between India's royal women and their French chiffon and organza saris is an abiding one. An image that comes to mind instantly is of Rajmata Gayatri Devi in her pastel saris and pearl necklaces. Take a leaf out of the regent's fashion book and make it your own with the help of this French organza sari from Atelier Shikaarbagh that's a tribute to another famous Indian queen: Durru Shehvar. The midnight blue-hued sari comes embroidered with sequins in whites and greens and is paired with a blue satin blouse. Available on ₹52,000. Also read: Not a fan of labubus? Try these unique cute charms FEATHER HEAD Fascinators with their elaborate decorations became popular during the 16th and 17th centuries. Their popularity is often credited to Queen Marie Antoinette who is known to have worn elaborate headgear decorated with, among other exotic things, ostrich feathers. Today, fascinators depict sophistication and a certain élan. The Sinamay fascinator by British milliner Victoria Grant is defined by slim black feathers set upon a lilac-hued base covered in mesh making it the perfect accessory for a high tea party or a spot of horse racing. Available on ₹99,490. BUCKLED UP In a royal ensemble, shoes are complementary, adding heft to a reined in look. Experiment with colours, if you will. For instance, pair a tweed Chanel suit with Manolo Blahnik's classic Hangisi 70 satin toe pumps in dark fuchisia that come adorned with signature crystal square buckles. Available on ₹1.19 lakh. CHAIR AFFAIR Extend the royalcore aesthetic to your home by adding select furniture pieces that are inspired by the Rococo, Baroque or Regence periods. You can't go wrong with classic-style Italian small armchairs. This design by Sevensedie is carved from beechwood and features carvings on the back and legs embellished with gold leaf lacquer finish. Available on price on request. Also read: How to pack a capsule wardrobe for a trekking holiday
