Twinkle Khanna, one of the wittiest columnist in India unveiled her debut book Mrs. Funnybones published by Penguin Random House On Tuesday, 18th August 2015. Full of wit and delicious observations, Mrs Funny Bones captures the life of the modern Indian woman—a woman who organizes dinner each evening but goes to work all day, who runs her own life but has to listen to her mummyji, who worries about her weight and the state of the country. 











Based on her super-hit columns, Mrs Funnybones marks the debut of one of our funniest, most original writers. Twinkle was supported by her family including Akshay Kumar,  mother Dimple Kapadia and sister Rinke Saran.

The evening was presented by Caroline Newbury, VP Marketing and Corporate Communications, Random House India followed by a tongue-in-cheek chat between Karan Johar and Twinkle on the lines of Koffee with Karan .  The evening progressed with a session of personal anecdotes from Dr. Nozer Sheriar her gynacologist, Aamir Khan, Akshay Kumar and Dimple Kapadia.

In Review: My Envy Box August Edition Feat. Homegrown Brands

How I love everything Indian?! This month's My Envy Box celebrated our Independence day and captured the spirit of desi ness in the beauty box. From the gorgeous cover design to the Indian beauty products, the beauty subscription box themed their August Box as India Mon Amour. Read my review of the box in today's post as I unveil the products I received this month.




The August My Envy Box contains 4 different samples ranging from makeup, skincare to perfume. It has 4 (almost) full sized products including a luxe sample which also happens to be my favorite. Here are the

1. Hedonista – Oudh Frozen Itar for Rs 1,045 
 This was my first time I used a frozen itar in a balm like texture and I have to admit that it has become a go-to product. I carry it to my office and dab a small portion every-time I switch between meetings.  It has a fragrance of warm vetiver and rose which is a beautiful combination. 

2. Suganda Neem Green Tea Mask for Rs 900 
It was another full sized product and also the second favorite from the pack. It is a mask for an acne prone skin but because it has the goodness of neem and green tea, it is good to treat any pimples, scars or oil. The powder mask can be mixed with warm water for the application. It also reads to combat sun damage but I simply love the idea of neem and green tea on the skin. 

3. Soultree Ayurvedic Kajal for Rs 350  
Honestly I am not a very big fan of Soultree kajals simply because they smudge like crazy. While it is a ayurvedic kajal made out of black carbon collected from vegetable oil lamps, I still think there are better options available. The kajal lacks pigment but can be used by someone who is cray, cray for Ayurvedic kohls. 

4.  Forest Essentials Iced Pomegranate & Kerala Lime Body Mist for Rs. 1,475
The showstopper product for me was the Forest Essentials Iced Pomegranate & Kerala Lime Body Mist. I absolutely love the smell of the mist that has a mix of pomegranate, lemon, wheat germ oil and pure aloe-vera which gives a long-lasting fragrance.

This was a break down of My Envy Box and you too can get these great products if you sign up for the special edition box for Rs 850. Subscribe here Myenvybox.com.

The super exciting trailer of Shaandaar has upped the game for all the B-town babes as Alia sports the super hot bikini avtaar. While we can't wait to witness the fairy tale love story featuring Alia Bhatt and Shahid Kapoor, there are many people who are talking about Alia's all new bikini body. According to PTI, her alleged boyfriend, Sidharth Malhotra had the most interesting thing to say when asked about Alia's look! 

Sidharth avoided the question (so beautifully) and said- "Shaandaar looks great and Alia is a lovely girl. I am working with her in Kapoor & Sons."

And boy, he did list his bikini favorites and added, "I think in Bollywood, Katrina Kaif, Deepika Padukone and Jacqueline Fernandez have the best bikini body."

Whatever it is, we love Alia's washboard abs in Pink bikini and also think that she looked equally flattering in a yellow bikini in SOTY. Sid my boy, let us teach you the art of opening up, what say?

A Rakhi Special Gift Hamper By SRSGrocery.com

Rakhi has always been a very significant festival in my life and reason for it is my elder sibling and my soul sister, Divya. She has always given me the drive to follow my passions, whether it was signing up for Teen Diva back in my sixteen’s or shooting for my first outfit post on the blog, she is someone I can't thank enough. (I really wonder how people make it through life without a sister). So when SRS Grocery approached me to do a Rakhi hamper this year, I just couldn't say no. But, wait it wasn't just about the hamper, I feel super lucky to have discovered a website that offers one of the largest variety of grocery online which also means that I don't have to run around for any of it anymore. And hey, the best part is that they offer credible and fast delivery!






The idea of buying groceries online has been around as long as the Internet, but who would ever do it? Here's why Srsgrocery.com beats all odds and provides a large variety of products pertaining to different categories like home, heath, beauty, basics and more. Other than the huge product selection it has to offer, shopping on SRS grocery is extremely cost effective as there are some exciting offers/combo packs you can avail. Coming back to my Rakhi special gift hamper, I was spoiled for options! Since the hamper belonged to my sister, I picked up a product assortment that included beauty products to kitchen utility to food and drinks.

This website effortlessly integrates into your daily life and makes the grocery shopping a very transparent experience. You can select the product size depending on your need, check the pricing, browse through multiple options and even check for seasonal deals and more. The online grocery experience helped me make healthier food choices; I picked up Saffola oats, olive oil and ended up discovering new products based on my sister’s needs. The vegetable chopping board is also a favorite product from the lot for my sister is a skillful home chef. I picked up all the items that she had mentioned recently and was surprised to check out multiple alternatives against each product. (they have prawns, yes frozen yet fresh prawns too). You can blindly try SRS Grocery for glassware and crockery as the packaging and handling of my products was worth admiration.

It was fun to shop the aisles of Whole Foods & basics without leaving the house and to top it all I ended up creating a beautiful Rakhi gift hamper that has all of my sister’s favorites. Take my advice and give srsgrocery.com a shot for all things grocery. I am sure you won’t be disappointed. 

p.s. you can even pick up some superb Rakhi hampers & rakhis for your family on the website.
