Konkona Sen Sharma interview: On Killer Soup, that Wake Up Sid ad and more | Web Series

Konkona Sen Sharma has always been mesmerising to watch onscreen, and in Killer Soup, the actor has delivered another unmatched performance. Right from the beginning, her Swathi is the one with the ‘killer’ instinct- plotting, scheming and avenging her way to get what she wants. It's a nerve-wracking performance, given there are so many things that she feels, hides and suspects at the same time. (Also read: Killer Soup review: A delicious dark comedy saved by Konkona Sensharma) Konkona Sen Sharma's latest release was Killer Soup. In an exclusive chat with Hindustan Times, the actor opened up about the detail that went into creating the character of Swathi- how she had to keep track of the several turns of the story during the shoot, shoot action like she had never done before, and...

Complementary Treatments for Lupus: What to Know

Being diagnosed with a chronic illness can be a distressing and disorienting experience. Surveys of people who have chronic diseases have found that many experience a sense of powerlessness, and that they tend to view their condition as more than a threat to their health; it’s also seen as a threat to their psychological well-being, as well as their social and personal identities.All of these experiences may be heightened among people with lupus, a complex autoimmune condition that tends to arise unexpectedly and in relatively young patients. The unpredictable and highly variable course of the disease can contribute to feelings of uncertainty and lack of control. Patients are likely to worry about how their life will change, or whether they’ll be able to pursue long-held ambitions. In many...

Bittescombe Lodge and Inn: Everything you need to know

Despite his Michelin pedigree, Certain’s aim has been to keep it “very traditional” with the menu — in other words, proper pub food: fish and chips, steaks, haunches of venison, a prized burger, though the likes of confit duck are not unusual. As at the Lodge, most of the meat served is “all estate produce”, with local suppliers used elsewhere throughout and listed on the menu. Scallops, from Brixham, are an outlier; the rest of the fish is closer to home. “We’ve got the coast, so we do a lot of fish. The guy gets off his boat and says, Olivier, I’ve got this. And so that’s what we do.” Source link

Kate Moss at 50: she will always be the poster girl for London

The thing is, unlike most megastars, Kate doesn’t seem weighed down by her fame; she just gets on with it. Last year, when Madonna was in town kicking off her world tour at the O2, I was lucky enough to be invited to an intimate after-show party hosted at a photographer’s home. Not many invites would get me out of the house on a Sunday evening — sorry but Antiques Roadshow is an essential part of my weekend wind-down — let alone a party starting at midnight but, hey, it was Madonna. The great and the glamorous of London were all there, from Edward Enninful to FKA twigs and Kate, naturally. Source link

How to Use Social Media Less

Emma Lembke joined Instagram when she was 12. The last of her friend group to sign up, she had sensed the appeal of the app in the gazes of friends; people who used to look at her now looked at their phones. “I thought to myself, ‘There has to be something incredibly magnetic and magical and connective that pulls people into these apps,’” recalls Lembke, who’s now 21 and founder of the Log Off Movement, a non-profit that aims to help kids use social media in a healthier way. She soon began spending five or six hours a day mindlessly scrolling—and says her mental health and well-being deteriorated. Lembke recalls quantifying her worth by tracking likes, comments, and followers, and taking down posts that didn’t perform well enough. “It felt as though I was honestly addicted,” she says. “Whe...
