Lace, Slit, And A Red Lip: Fatima Sana Shaikh's Afterparty Look Was Pure Fashion
Last Updated: Fatima Sana Shaikh stole the spotlight with effortless elegance in an off-shoulder, floor-length gown with a thigh-high slit. A Bollywood afterparty is always a star-studded celebration. The Dirty Magazine's afterparty was no different. Among the many head-turners that evening, Fatima Sana Shaikh stood out with effortless confidence and quiet elegance. Known for her unique fashion choices and fearless vibe, Fatima delivered one of the most talked-about looks of the night. She delivered a perfect fit for the edgy aesthetic the event embraced. Fatima Sana Shaikh wore a stunning off-the-shoulder, floor-length gown that balanced timeless charm with a modern edge. The dress featured a bold thigh-high slit and was crafted from rich lace or embroidered fabric. A contrasting inner lining brought structure to the flowy outer layer. The gown's muted monochrome palette – in black, white and grey – let the fabric and silhouette do all the talking. Fatima completed the look with open-toe heels that complemented her outfit without stealing focus. Accessories were minimal but well chosen: a statement ring, a couple of subtle jewellery pieces and an overall air of effortless polish. Her hair was slicked back in a wet-look style that highlighted her strong features and gave the whole look a modern, runway-inspired feel. And the final touch? A bold red lip – timeless and striking. On the work front, Fatima was last seen in Metro… In Dino. The Anurag Basu directorial also featured Aditya Roy Kapur, Sara Ali Khan, Ali Fazal, Konkona Sen Sharma and Pankaj Tripathi. The film explored urban relationships with a fresh perspective and further showcased Fatima's versatility.

Denis Hurley Centre mourns passing of three contributors
THE past few months has seen the Denis Hurley Centre (DHC) family embroiled in bereavement, following the passing of their valuable contributors. Sarah Kearney died at the age of 55 after a protracted illness. She was the niece of DHC founder, Paddy Kearney, one of the three children of his late brother Jack. Sarah was described as an invaluable source of insights for the PhD written about Paddy. DHC director Raymond Perrier said, 'Saffura Khan died of a heart attack aged 67 after undergoing surgery. Saffura has been one of our most committed and versatile Muslim partners. The fact that she was blind from birth, and a passionate activist for the rights of the disabled, meant that she also brought new insights into our own work. It was in part through her inspiration and gentle cajoling that over the years we could engage a blind tour guide, set up an empowerment project for deaf young adults, and ensure that wheelchair users could be staff members and volunteers.' Also read: Denis Hurley Centre Street Store serves success Saffura had been a patron of DHC's sister organisation, the Napier Centre for Healing, as was Bishop Dino Gabriel who has died at the age of 69. 'Sadly, a few months ago, Dino discovered that he had cancer and, after that, his decline was swift. He came to South Africa from Italy in 1987 as a Catholic priest and a Consolata missionary; then later in life he became an Anglican, an Anglican priest and then an Anglican bishop. 'During the four years that he was our local Anglican bishop, Dino was a regular visitor to the DHC and encouraged his clergy to share actively in our ministry. Then in his retirement, he approached us to 'ask' if he could be a volunteer. It was deeply moving to see him come in as humble 'Fr Dino' and happily spend hours attentively in conversation, in fluent Zulu, with our homeless guests,' said Perrier. 'We echo the words of his friend Cardinal Napier who, very fittingly, extended his condolences to Dino's three families: his religious family of Consolata missionaries, his episcopal family in the Anglican dioceses of Zululand and Natal, and his biological family comprising maDlamini his wife of 33 years, their four children and six grandchildren.'

Large dinosaur mating 'dance arena' discovered in Colorado
Researchers have discovered evidence of one of the largest dinosaur mating "dance arenas" in present-day Colorado. Previous studies have identified a couple of "dinosaur lek" areas -- where male dinosaurs likely congregated to perform courtship displays for females, primarily for the purpose of finding a mate -- at Dinosaur Ridge, 20 miles west of Denver. However, using high-resolution drone photography and photogrammetry to make 3D models of the sandstone at Dinosaur Ridge, a team reexamined the area to see if there were more markings on the surface. MORE: Jurassic Park-ing lot: Dino fossil turns Denver museum into dig site What they found were dozens of lek traces tightly clustered together, suggesting the area was once a site to perform mating rituals, similar to some modern-day birds. "So, these trace fossils, we interpret them to be evidence of dinosaur courtship activities, just from kind of process of elimination," Caldwell Buntin, co-author of the study and a lecturer at Old Dominion University in Norfolk, Virginia, told ABC News. Buntin said the team ruled out that these "scrapes" were caused by dinosaurs digging for food and water, from marking their territories or from colonial nesting, which is when animals build their nests close together in groups. "Basically, these were a lot of organisms that were coming together, performing some kind of activity that would include building some kind of nest to display to a female, and then maybe doing some kind of a dance or scraping activity, which generates a lot of the scrapes around the nest display structure," Buntin said. The scrapes belong to theropod dinosaurs, characterized by hollow bones and three toes and claws on each limb, which were alive during the Cretaceous period, between 145 million and 66 million years ago. It's not clear which species made the scrapes, but they were likely three to four feet high at the hip and were between 2.5 and 5 meters (8 to 16 feet) long, from the size of an emu to the size of an ostrich, according to Buntin. MORE: New horned dinosaur species discovered 'largest and most ornate' of its kind ever found There's a "spectrum of different scrapes," according to Buntin. Some are simple, shallow toe claw marks, indicating one or two scrapes from the left and right legs. There are also longer scrapes overprinting one another, resembling a wagon rut. Additionally, there are semicircular bowl-shaped marks "associated with a step backward" with a second set of scrapes "indicating a counterclockwise or a clockwise turn." Lastly, there are deep bowl-shaped marks with some shallow toe claw marks, Buntin said. In terms of behavior, Buntin said these dinosaurs most resemble that of banded plovers, which are small shorebirds. "Basically, they will dig out a nest display, basically a fake nest, to be able to show a female that, 'Hey, I'm a strong male. I can dig this. I can make a good, strong place for you to lay your eggs,'" Buntin said. "And then when a female comes to visit, they'll perform a dance which consists of kind of bowing, bobbing, raising their wings out, creating some scratches around the sides of that display nest." The authors emphasized that the site is public, meaning anybody can visit and see the scrapes for themselves compared to other scrap sites, which are on federally protected land. "It does really make it a very, very unique site, because not only does it have this amazing like type behavior displayed, but it also is so accessible for lots of people to be able to see it and understand better about the behavior of these wonderful animals that we can see now," Neffra Matthews, study co-author and former employee of the Bureau of Land Management, told ABC News.

Angad Bedi took seven years to digest Neha Dhupia's habit of telling guests to leave their house at specific time: ‘We would love to have you from 8 to 11'

While sharing house rules, Angad revealed, 'You will believe it or not, I take permission every day to enter this house because this house belongs to my wife. Neha Dhupia is the high command.' As the conversation flowed, he further revealed that Neha sets an in and out time for all their guests. 'I didn't know this before, but after marriage I discovered that in our house we have an in time and an out time.'. Listening to this, Neha Dhupia explained, 'I set an out time because people need to value time. If I invite them at 7 pm, they come at 9:30 pm. So what I do is drop them a text that 'we are really looking forward to see you. We would love to have you over–from 8 to 11'. So I give them the out time also.' She added, 'For many years, it used to be 'who does this?' But for kids, it is a normal practice. A lot of times what happened is Angad used to entertain our guests, but I used to go and sleep. They used to find it rude. So we just say it much before that one of us will sleep after a certain point.' Pointing towards Angad, Neha shared with a smile, 'He has taken many years to come around. Some things, like our marriage, we have agreed on in 7 minutes and somethings, like out time, we have taken as long as 7 years.' Angad then joked, 'My friends reach home at the given 'in time' and when we reach the 'out time', I step out with them.'

He's all heart, and then, right before I left Roadies, I was like, he's not bad, he's amazing. I love him. He always had a piece of my heart, but not like that.'
