Leading fashion brand Madame has created a whimsical and nostalgic collection inspired by Tom & Jerry, one of the world’s most famous cartoon franchises. Launched in collaboration with Warner Bros. Consumer Products, Madame's Tom & Jerry collection is an ode to the hilarious cat and mouse ‘frenemies’ and showcases a selection of edgy graphic tees and denim pieces featuring the timeless cartoons. With the ’90s and 2000s fashion making a well-deserved comeback in 2021, the era of eye-catching graphic tees and cut out jeans paired with a smart denim jacket is slowly making its way back into vogue. Madame’s Tom & Jerry collection is a visual representation of 90’s nostalgia, featuring a collection of striking, edgy graphic tees and denim fashion pieces featuring the two of the most timelessly playful cartoon characters to ever exist. This iconic fashion range consists of a wide variety of casual pieces such as tees, jackets, shorts, dresses and jumpsuits - a complete range for the modern, whimsical woman who fancies a touch of mischief inspired by her childhood. Now that 90’s trends are coming back into fashion, the apparel industry for the modern woman is seeing a surge in retro prints, cuts and silhouettes. This collection aims at seamlessly reintroducing the iconic trends of puffed sleeves and elasticated hems into modern everyday wear to create a look that is effortlessly trendy and sits perfectly between the past and the present. A clothing brand that first emerged as a crowd favourite owing to its winter wear collection, the colour palette of this range is derived from subtle, classic winter hues such as dusty pink, cream and mauve. Madame’s Tom & Jerry apparel collection amalgamates everyday fashion basics with chic, mood-boosting elements to create a clothing range fit for the woman who fancies a piece or two in her wardrobe that’s layered with classic quirkiness. The collection retails for Rs. 1199 to Rs. 2999, making it accessible to women with any budget, low or high. Commenting on her creative process for this collection, head design at Madame, Parika Rawal, said, “The idea of creating a playful collection like this came to me while I was flipping through channels on my TV and caught a glimpse of The Tom & Jerry Show. When you think of 90’s nostalgia, this cartoon show is one that every man, woman and child has watched at some point in their lives - either by themselves or with their little ones. That was when I decided that if I had to pick a theme for my new collection, there couldn’t be one more iconic or more widespread than these beloved cartoon characters. Clothing is an expression of your personal style - and this energetic collection is meant to bring out the child in you, through fashion.” While expressing his views on the launch of this playful collection, Akhil Jain, Executive Director, Madame, commented, “No longer is the modern woman limited in terms of choices when it comes to personal fashion. With the Tom & Jerry collection, we are celebrating the bold, playful, iconic women who don’t shy away from making standout fashion choices and who let their personal style do the talking for them.” “Tom and Jerry are undoubtedly two of the best-loved characters in India. Everyone, no matter what age you are, has grown up watching the classic duo in action. We’ve loved working with Madame on this collection which perfectly captures the cartoon’s unique energy and sense of fun,” added Vikram Sharma, Head of Consumer Products, Advertising & Partnerships at Warner Media India, Southeast Asia & Korea. In India, Warner Bros. launched Tom & Jerry: The Movie in cinemas in February while the franchise’s TV series are available on Cartoon Network.

The title describes the story of the film. The story of a forest officer, facing the challenges between personal and professional life. The T12- Tigress is the main target to tranquillized. Amit Mapuskar's direction is worth seeing and the narrative speaks complex. While the screenplay toggles between protagonists and antagonists. The battle Tigress VS Man describes the struggle to keep awake the thought of the Save Tiger movement. The Cinematography is classic and the shots taken are fascinating. It is captured by the camera so well that some of the actions seem to be real. The nature shots mesmerized our eyes to go deep in the beauty of nature. The close shots of insects and greenery are the chuff of "SHERNI". In my opinion, the storyline is basic and could be improvised better to understand the real impact of " Save Tiger ". The impact of Vidya's role could have been better. Also, Sharat Saxena was the character, I feel should not have been given much importance as it looks in the picture. The sound design looks fantastic. The forest creatures sound as well as the rustling of leaves, the shallow water flow through the forest is great to watch. Vidya Balan played the strong role of Forest Officer. It's really remarkable, appreciable role. Keeping a soft tone, balancing between the anger and good work, her voice tones are awful to hear. Her commitment to work and also her staff supporting look decent. Covering the jungle, some thrilling trails of tigress pawn keep reconnecting to the life of this cat family member. Ultimately, the motive of this Mapuskar's creation, to show balancing between the diversity of nature, leaves you to think of conserving forest life more seriously, is satisfied. Overall a thriller, suspenseful and worth watching a movie. If you are a tiger-lover, you should give it a chance to entertain you.

Do you know what the crucial moment in Mahabharata was? It was the moment when, in the Kurukshetra war, Arjuna saw his closed ones on the other side as his foes. As he eliminates the people who shared blood relations with him and played paramount roles in his life. Arjuna was in the moral dilemma of how to fight against his people. Lord Krishna recounted different lessons and philosophies to Arjuna during the Kurukshetra war. It was the time when the tables turned. The epic saga of the valuable interaction between Lord Krishna and Arjuna has now become a worldwide phenomenon and known as the Bhagavad Gita. The Bhagavad Gita is a 700-verse Hindu scripture and a crucial part of the epic Mahabharata. But are these the only facts that make the Bhagavad Gita great? The Bhagavad Gita is not just a motivational speech a motivator gave to his lost pupil. It’s the essence of life cleverly outlined and applicable to any and everyone. The lessons and philosophies in the Bhagavad Gita not just encouraged Arjuna to do the right thing, but they also touch various aspects of daily life in today’s time. They shed light on everyday problems and offer solutions for them as well. The Kurukshetra war was not just between the Kauravas and Pandavas. It was a Dharma Yuddha, a Righteous war fought between right and wrong, good and bad, ethical and unethical. It is something that we all struggle to figure out at some point in our life. We all are modern Arjunas fighting modern problems. We fight a war of life every day. Yes, it is a war. Everyone’s war is different and has different intensity. And the Bhagavad Gita gives us lessons on how to fight and win everyday battles. In our current era, we call these lessons- Life Skills. Right now, we are fighting an even bigger enemy- a Pandemic. Not just the COVID-19 virus, but the whole lockdown thing is taking a toll on us. The frustration, depression, stress, tensions, disagreements, emotional fluctuations, and many other negative feelings are growing day by day and making people suffer physically and mentally. These are not the problems that have popped up out of the blue. They were always part of our life. But in current scenarios, the degree of their existence is senselessly increasing. To tackle these problems, we need an enhanced degree of Life Skills. And the Bhagavad Gita extends its sagacity to help us in these times. The Bhagavad Gita is not just a fancy buzzword that revolves only around some Sanskrit Shlokas. It is the ultimate astuteness bestowed upon mankind to realize the truthful nature of divinity and accustom it to our daily lives. Though the teachings drafted in the Gita date back to ancient times, miraculously, they are applied to every era. The Bhagavad Gita is the eternal wisdom of life. What Gita offers is not easily understood by everyone. That’s why Dr Sunanda Rathi, a Yoga Researcher, has initiated a workshop to spread the life lessons from the Bhagavad Gita worldwide. She has designed an Online Training Program cum workshop on the Bhagavad Gita “gems@gita: Life Skills from the Song Divine”.

Wellnessta App - India's First Wellness-Tech App that helps people find personal wellness services such as Salon & Spas, Gym & Fitness, Ayurvedic massages, Yoga, and Naturopathy on their fingertips has recently launched its D2C operations with an aim to create a better living experience amid the pandemic. The website/app (android & iOS) hosts several vendors with their pictures and reviews that allows users to browse, analyze and pick services they find the most suitable. The platform also enables users to book appointments directly from a wide range of outlets within their vicinity, making the experience even more seamless and enjoy attractive offers and discounts. Wellnessta’s D2C operations are currently focused around Mumbai where they’ve onboarded 500+ outlets with 86 of them already live. With most vendors offering exuberant discounts, sometimes as high as 40%, people are starting to move out and indulge in self-care activities. “2020 was a year of amazing development and learning for our company”, said the Founder of Wellnessta, Mr Sanjeev Singhai. “We've seen a surge in vendor registration since the unlock; each day, more and more vendors are registering with us and opting for our SaaS offering of Appointment, Coupon, Inventory and Payroll Management offerings. The Wellnessta app is a platform enabling consumers to explore a wide variety of outlets in their vicinity. Since people are highly concerned about hygiene and safety due to covid-19, we are focusing on bringing high clarity pictures and reviews to them, so they can make sure the place is safe before making a reservation through the app. Apart from vendor discounts, we too are also offering an introductory up to 40% and 50% discount to new customers on their first booking. We are hopeful about the times to come!” The benefits of the platform are not limited to end consumers. Businesses have suffered a great deal in the last two years due to the sudden onset of the pandemic. Wellnessta is onboarding vendors and enabling online bookings, thus introducing a new means of revenue for them. Besides this, the Wellnessta platform offers a complete software infrastructure to manage end-to-end operations of these outlets including appointment administration, coupon management, payroll management, and inventory management and more. Co-founder and CEO of Wellnessta , Sarthak Singhai commented, “After launching D2B in December of last year, the only natural next step for us was to launch D2C. The goal is to raise consumer knowledge about Wellnessta and encourage them to book via us.” The market at current is looking positive. People are beginning to step out of home and businesses are opening back. People need to be careful and maintain social distancing and Wellnessta helps in that. People can book their appointment time online in advance and avoid a rush at the outlet. Wellnessta plans to expand its operations in Delhi and Bangalore in the next quarter.

In an exclusive interview with CNN-News18 covered by Team Stay Featured Olympian medallist PV Sindhu talked about her preparation for the upcoming Tokyo Olympics. She shared her experiences, her preparation and how it has changed amidst the Covid-19 outbreak. P V Sindhu: At the moment I am enjoying the pressure because I can't say that I don't have pressure, because of a lot of expectation and responsibility I think it's very important to just play your game and give your best rather than think what people want you to do because that will and extra pressure according to me and having that pressure and going to the court is not good. So I think it's better to just focus on your game and give your best. Q: True, your bags are all packed. So what are the few things that you are going to pack for yourself so that you do well in Tokyo? P V Sindhu: Lots of sanitizer and face mask. It's very important to stay safe and make sure that you follow all the Covid protocols because even though the Japanese government is doing everything and the protocols are being followed, it's very important to stay safe. Weaving in the bio bubble and everybody will be tested every day and it's going to be very different and I think so The Mask and sanitizer become very important. Apart from that, I am really looking forward. Q: You are going to be the flag bearer. Is there a special honour? And that also increase the weight of expectation? P V Sindhu: Well there are expectations but being the flag bearer, it's definitely a proud moment and holding the flag and representing your country, it's a proud movement for me. I am really happy about that and I am looking forward because not everybody gets that chance and me getting that chance and opportunity I think it's really a great moment. Q: How has this been different this time? Because of the pandemic, a lot of things have happened, few of your colleagues didn't get qualify, the contingent is only 4, it's a very small contingent. But there are the Chinese, Japanese, and Thai. So how has it’s been different this time? P V Sindhu: Yes it's very different, look at 2016 - it was different, and this time it's going to be completely different, we won't be having spectators around and we can't go anywhere and we have to stay in the big bubble. I think this pandemic has taught me a lot of things and I am getting used to it. For some of the players, it's getting difficult also. I think it's not just for us but it's for everybody out there. Unfortunately, the tournament is getting cancelled and getting postponed. It's not in our hands. We are in such a situation where you don't know what is next or what is going to happen. At this point, the only thing that we can do is to stay safe. If the performance is getting cancelled we can't blame them also. Because you don't know how the situation is in their own country. Everybody wants to make sure that safety comes first. We don't want that situation to go in some other country and get infected from Covid there and staying there for a very long time. I think that's not a good idea. I think they have decided about it and have cancelled the tournament. Since they haven't got selected so we can't blame them also. It's going to be the first Olympics for Sai, Satvik and Chirag, and they are quite excited because everybody is theme is to be there at the Olympics and I think if anybody gets that chance they are going to enjoy it. So it's going to be different. But, I think they will learn new stuff. Q: I am amazed that you are still so young yet still so much older. You are going to be the senior. P V Sindhu: For me, it's my second Olympics so I know how the environment is going to be there and I know it's a really good environment you see a lot of athletes on top of their games and it becomes the inspiration for you that yeah you are one of them. So, it is good and it's something special. Olympic has always been special for me. Q: Let's talk about three things the mental level the physical level and the skills. Let's talk about each one by one. Mentally you seem to be in a much better place than you were earlier. Now have you been working on that aspect because last time we spoke about mental awareness? Is it something that you have been focusing on? P V Sindhu: I've been working on that. And I am making sure that I don't go to that state because a lot of people don't know what to do when they go to that state. Getting mentally upset, depressed not only in just sports life but also in personal life as well. So it's very important to keep yourself busy by doing something else rather than thinking too much about what's happening. It's important to understand the fact that nobody can do anything about it. Obviously, take care of yourself and stay safe. Apart from that, it's very important to keep yourself busy by doing something else and don't think a lot about what happening, just a positive all the time. You can do that by doing some exercise or by learning some new skill, that is what I meant by keeping yourself busy you get so busy that you don't have time to think. Keep yourself in that zone and no that you have to stay positive. I know at times is there in life or in sports where you lose a match and things are not going your way so you get upset and begin to get depressed you need to try and come out from that place. You just have to think about what is next and keep going because that's how life is. Because I think positive and staying happy is very much needed. I am sure things will definitely change. Q: Now that you know that you are mentally strong, have you ever tried testing it out but how do you perform in critical situations? P V Sindhu: I have learnt a lot of things because it comes with a lot of experience to understand what's going in your head, and I make sure that I keep myself calm. Back then when I used to play a match and if I tend to lose it, then I get upset and you can see that on my face. Now that has changed I keep working on that. It's very important to work on your mental aspect. Overall I have improved and it's really good and I stay positive all the time. There are times when you have so many thoughts in your mind or it's just a bad day for you, it's just fine it's ok. It happens, it's not going to be forever. Q: You may be going through a lot of emotions something really opposite to what is being interpreted. But you have to be in control. P V Sindhu: Yes, you have to be the one who has to control yourself. Q: Now let's talk about your physical aspect, in terms of becoming stronger. What are the aspects that you worked upon? In the run-up to a lot of games, now that it's not happening but has that also help that you are now injury-free. Get stronger on your training aspect. What have you been doing? P V Sindhu: I think this was the time I got enough time to work on my skills and to train because generally, we don't have much time because we come from a tournament and then go back to another tournament back then we didn't have enough time as we were so busy. Now we have a lot of time since March we don't have any tournament still now. Injury wise endurance wise or skill-wise I've been working on every aspect of it. When you are competing at the Olympics you have to be in your best form. This was the right time, I've got enough time to train. Enough practice sessions to learn new skills. I'm very happy that we got enough time. A lot of people say that we miss tournaments that we couldn't play and do match practice. When you play the matches in big stadiums, you get used to it. You get to use to the spectators. But this time around we are playing the matches without spectators at a big stadium. So I am getting used to it so that I don't take much time after going there to actually know how it is. Q: It's going to be a test of endurance and skills, have you been working on that? Because this strength of all your up opponents are different. As nationality change the skills and strengths changes. P V Sindhu: I've been working on my endurance when we talk about other players yes they are really strong. Skill-wise when things come we have to be prepared for it. So I am working on skills and techniques and I am getting help in that too. Q: Have you been watching what others are doing? Who are the players whom you are going to watch out for? P V Sindhu: I don't watch previous matches but we see that what they are currently doing and what they are preparing for. But from March until now we don't have any tournaments so that everyone can learn new techniques and improve their games. But it's very important to be prepared for everything and to have plan A and plan B. You go by one plan and if that doesn't work so you can immediately change your plan that is very important. Q: Who do you think is someone who has always tested your ability? P V Sindhu: It's very different for every player and we have to be prepared for everyone. Like Rachenoff is a very skilful player. For each player, it's different and you have to be prepared for everyone you should have a different strategy for everyone in the same game. Q: Is the virus going to play, is the pandemic is going on in the worry of catching the virus or are you going to set that aside and say I'm not going to bother about it? P V Sindhu: Of course you have to be careful because we are travelling, make sure that we wear a mask. But I think we should not worry about that because they are protocol and things are being taken care of and we Being In a bio bubble we will make sure that we maintain that social distancing and when we get to the quote I think that should worry us. It's important to be focused and just play our game. I think that's what I'll be more worried about. Q: Do you think this time the bus around the Olympics is not that much. Do you think it's a good thing or a bad thing? P V Sindhu: I don't have that feeling because I have already been hearing about that a lot so I feel that the buzz is there but since it got postponed and now that is finally happening I am very much excited about it because it's just a couple of week. Apart from that what to be prepared for that there will be no spectators. Surely we are going to miss that buzz, that noise and that crowd. But personally, I think there will be a lot of supporters. Apart from that, I think the Olympics is there and the buzz is there. Q: since there will be no spectators, do players actually feel of the crowd energy, does that actually make a difference. In Japan, while playing against the Japanese players, you will rather have an empty Stadium than a crowded one.the P V Sindhu: now, we've got used to it. For Yamaha Gucci and ukuhara it's their home ground but when it's Olympics they will also be pressure on them also. I don't know if they are going to be spectators or minimum spectators, at the end of the day it's you and your coach only, I think you two should support each other, playing K9 in empty stadium of course we miss the audience. When you hear the crowd that's like motivation and support this cheer for you all the time. This time we're not going to have that. So I don't think the crowd matters. Q: What does kopi Anna say? You been working closely with them. Is there any word of advice that come from him? P V Sindhu: Not really because every morning we just come and train. And we have been training for almost one and half years now. So I am just training with him. Q: What was his assessment of you one year ago, and what are the things that he said that Sindhu you need to work on? P V Sindhu: He said I need to be a bit consistent and focus on my game a little more and what he meant is that being consistent is very important. And I am working on that too. Q: What is it that we should watch out for from Sindhu this time around? P V Sindhu: I hope that people see a new skill from me and hoping to get that medal back to the country. I think that's what you should hope for from me.
