Celebs say food is the ultimate mood-lifter

CineBuster Online | Updated — Sat, 07 Nov 2020 17:22:10 +0000

“A healthy food for a wealthy mood”, don’t you think this quote is absolutely true. Do nothing and give someone their most favourite food, and you will instantly see a smile on their face. So there is no denying that good food is equal to a good mood. Here are some celebs sharing their most favourite food items that cheers them up within seconds. Read on:

Suraj Kakkar: My close ones know very well that if I am not talking sense, or I am having sudden mood swings, then I am hungry. I can’t keep fast as I want food. A homemade fresh veg meal is best for me.

Aniruddh Dave: Food is directly connected to our mind, because glucose helps our mind to work so the type of food we eat, affects our body, mind and soul. That’s the reason when people eat chocolate, they feel good. I feel the cocoa or sugar portion hits cellular glucose and it positively affects our mind. So, yes food definitely changes ones mood because whatever we eat or drink it affects our body and mind.

Aarvika Gupta: Of course it works for me. Mood cheers me up especially when we get the food we love. I love Indian home made food and South Indian food. My mom makes coconut sweets and I love it. I also love rasam rice and mango pickles. All these things instantly cheer my mood and make me happy.

Jasmin Bhasin: I totally think food can cheer up ones mood, especially for people like me who are living to eat good food. Two things I eat to lift up my mood are pizza and butter chicken. It works like magic for me and makes me so happy that I forget everything. I even forgive people who have hurt me. It’s my happy drug.

Vikas Sethi: Food definitely is an amazing cheer up. I love drinking nimbu paani, and I love eating dal chawal. I eat poha and papaya for breakfast. I am a big fan of ghar ka khana.

Meera Deosthale: Yes, absolutely food does cheer ones mood. And I am definitely one of those who will binge eat if I am sad. So, generally it’s my thing, that if I am sad about something, I order pastries. I read somewhere that chocolate can lift your mood, so I order chocolate pastries. And one more food that can cheer me up instantly is pizza.

Dhruvee Haldankar: We literally decorate food while putting it on plate. Just the sight of it titillates peoples moods! I love food, both to eat and to cook. My most favorite is lemon grass jasmine and ginger Bru tea and I love toblerones!

Ankit Siwach: As they say “One cannot think well, love well, sleep well unless one has dined well”, this phrase shows the complete involvement of food in all our systems, physical, mental, emotional, spiritual. The two favourite food items that I love to eat to lift my mood are peanut butter and jam sandwiches with hot coffee or I order a cheesecake, these two are my forever craving.

Jhanvi Sethi: I love drinking aam panna and I love eating oats as my favorite meal. I am a light eater and big fan for ghar ka khana.

Shilpa Raizada: Yes, of course, I think food can cheers one’s mood. I am a foodie and when I feel low I drink a cup of coffee or otherwise adrak wali chai. I also prefer desi khana like I love all veggies and sometimes chicken.

Vijayendra Kumeria: Food plays a major role in uplifting your mood. When I feel a little low, I like to have chocolate pastry or some chocolates or dark chocolate. Anything sweet helps me in uplifting my mood. I am a foodie, may be people think that I diet or I am fitness freak and I don’t eat a lot, but I genuinely eat what I feel like eating that keeps me very positive and very happy. But I eat small portions that satisfies my need. If I crave for something, I have a small portion of it as it makes me happy.

Avinash Mukherjee: Food can cheers ones mood. Chocolate makes me happy and an occasional peg of scotch works too.

Pranitaa Pandit: Food means everything to me. I live to eat. I am a complete foodie and of course, food can really cheer you up. I remember once when I was in a very bad mood and I didn’t know why I was in bad mood, I remember just going for pani puri, the moment I had pain puri and a lot of chaat, I was super happy and excited. I think comfort food is important and it is one of my favourites.

Ashna Kishore: I am a big time foodie. I can eat anything anytime. But two things I love the most are chole bhature and hot chocolate fudge. Due to the lockdown, we can’t eat outside food, so as of now ice cream is one thing I eat when I feel low, or else shakes and smoothies works for me. My mother’s home cooked food also is my favourite. And now that she is here I relish it daily.

Angad Hasija: Food is very important. I love eating junk food and sweets but I try to avoid all that as I maintain a very strict diet, but whenever I feel low, I eat chocolate it makes me feel good, and in drinks I have mango shake.

Mou Das: “The way to the heart is through the stomach”. Human mind has strange associations with olfactory receptors, so it is often seen that a certain aroma of food brings in the memories of childhood or mother’s recipes. Cooking and dining is an art. Bongs are known to live to eat. Jokes apart, I believe in good food, but I try to strike a balance between satiating my tastebuds and keeping myself healthy. That doesn’t justify hogging. I take small potions of what I like. I never starve myself, nor do I overeat. Chingri macher malai Kari and kosha mangsho are my all time favourite. Green coconut water and a typical Bengali recipe of aam pora sharbat, after a busy day outdoors in the scorching heat, is the perfect coolant. It’s absolutely refreshing and I just love them.

Kettan Singh: Yes food can cheer anyone’s mood. For me it is pizza, burger and a good cup of coffee or tea because I don’t normally eat pizza and burger. It happens once in two months. So if I have to cheer up my mood, I have two-three slices of pizza with a cup of tea or coffee. I don’t have any aerated drinks but on sometimes, I like to indulge in samosa and Pepsi.

Urvashi Upadhyay Sharle: Yes I agree that if we get our favourite food it cheers up the mood. I make tea with pudina, masala and ginger, this is a typical Gujarati tea, it’s amazing and if I get this tea I feel really good, also if tea is not that good then it spoils my mood.

Top TV actors talk about country’s favourite sport, Cricket

CineBuster Online | Updated — Fri, 30 Oct 2020 10:12:28 +0000

The much-awaited Indian Premier League has started and cricket fans all over the country are ready to witness yet another exciting cricket tournament!

As everyone makes time to watch their favourite team in action for the match, being held in Dubai, we as your favourite stars, how excited are they about the match and who are they supporting this IPL season!

Vijayendra Kumeria- I am excited as it has been a long time that we haven’t enjoyed cricket. IPL matches are always very entertaining. It’s always a difficult choice to have one favourite team as all your favourite players are scattered but this time I have a clear choice and it’s Chennai super kings for Dhoni and for obvious reasons. I don’t flip channels even in breaks and that’s the only ritual I follow as I feel whenever I due that the game just changes you can call it superstition.

Mou Das- Is IPL really the “much-awaited” anymore? I have never had the luxury to follow the tournament as such. I would watch one-off matches with family and friends if I am out in the evening for dinners or parties. The location isn’t much of an interest to me but I guess the fun of any match is the large crowds and cheering. However, because of the pandemic, we cannot enjoy that. Since I am from Ranchi and I am like MSD I will follow him and his team Chennai Super Kings.

Savi Thakur- I am not a regular IPL enthusiast but I really enjoy watching MS Dhoni play. So, everytime he comes to play, I try to squeeze in some time to watch a match. Having said that, I do thoroughly enjoy the spirit the game brings in everyone. So, I don’t mind watching the matches with my friends if there is a get together

Subuhii Joshii- I always enjoyed watching IPL with my friends. We used to go out to Lounges to enjoy the matches. But because of this pandemic that isn’t gonna happen this year. I also used to go to the stadium at least for 1 match but that too isn’t possible this time since the matches are in UAE. So, I will enjoy the match at home only this time with my 1 or 2 close friends, while maintaining social distancing. I’ve always been a huge supporter of Mumbai Indians and this time too I’ll be supporting them. When it comes to matches, I’m very superstitious, I wear my lucky colour on the day of my favourite team’s match, and I do not touch the remote or change the channel before their inning. Hardik Pandya and Rohit Sharma would be my fav IPL players.

Saanand Verma- Recently, I bought 65 inch television and it’s worth rupees five lakh. It is Oled television and I bought it just to watch IPL and in IPL I want to see Mahendra Singh Dhoni to play. I am a very big fan of Dhoni and I heard about his retirement that he will only play IPL than I thought ipl is the only way where we can watch legendary Mahendra Singh Dhoni to play cricket. Due to the pandemic we can’t go to the stadium, so I bought a big tv to feel like I am watching a match at the stadium. Buying such an expensive TV is a very big investment for people like me who are not that financially well and due to corona many people’s income has got affected. I am extremely excited for ipl 2020.

Urvashi Upadhyay Sharle- This year IPL 2020 will be a very unique experience for cricket lovers but for me if I saw cricket in my life is that is only in Ms Dhoni movie and in web series inside edge for me I watched cricket only this much. I am not a great fan of cricket and cricket lovers will enjoy cricket virtually as now everything has become virtual.

Rohit Chaudhary- Finally our dream is coming true that IPL is happening. Now Indians will get some entertainment. Cricket is genuinely loved by all the Indians and I am super excited for it. Every year I go to the stadium to watch cricket because watching in the stadium has a different aura altogether. Having said that, if due to this Covid if we are getting to IPL through television, then also it is very exciting. I will miss watching cricket in the stadium. I support Mumbai Indian always but if I talk about my favourite cricketer than non-other than super energetic Virat Kohli. He always gives his 1000 percent. He lives in cricket, he is an all-rounder. As the matches are happening without an audience but we have heard that in the last 2 or 3 matches the audience will get permission to see so if this happens then I will fly to Dubai to watch cricket.

Rahul Sharma- This is a good thing that after a 5 to 6 months delay we will be watching some good entertaining things and some real action live on our television set because we are watching Amazon Netflix and lot of other stuff from the last six seven months. It will be a pleasure to see our favourite players and team play. Though we won’t be able to watch it in a stadium and it’s a bummer. My favourite team is Mumbai and Chennai both Chennai because of Dhoni and his strategies and captaincy. He is so happening in the field that from his eyes he speaks a lot. Now he is retired so I will be focussed on Dhoni. It is always a pleasure to watch him on screen and from Mumbai Indians I like Rohit Sharma. This season will be entertaining. I feel so.

Khsubhoo Kamal- I love watching the World Cup the most. I love watching cricket, especially a game between Pakistan vs India and I loudly cheer for India. When in 2011 we won the World Cup because of Dhoni after I came on the street and was screaming and saying to everyone congratulations but now I like Virat Kohli he is a very hardworking and young talented guy. He is doing so good after Dhoni and Sachin Tendulkar and he is the one in whom we can trust blindly. I don’t enjoy much IPL because I feel that ipl is already fixed and it is more business kind of thing. This year also I am not going to watch ipl if somehow an interesting thing happens, then I just check the overs. I won’t watch ipl, I will focus on all the interesting news.

Sharad Malhotra: I love the spirit of IPL and the craziness that it comes with! I watch cricket and I really enjoy the game. In India entertainment and cricket are best entertainers. I will be following the match as much as my schedule allows! My favourite team is Mumbai Indians but this time it’s going to be about MS Dhoni. I have loved watching him play and seeing him spin the magic once again is going to be super amazing!

Jasmin Bhasin- I love cricket! I can watch cricket all day long but unfortunately my shoot schedule doesn’t allow it. Ofcourse, I will be watching IPL this season. Even though it is not happening in India and we will miss the madness of the crowds in a stadium, I think it is important to show the support in the spirit of the game! I am supporting Mumbai Indians and will cheer for them! Ofcourse I wish this pandemic gets over by the time, the next season happens because nothing beats the excitement having our very own IPL in India and not another country.

Kettan Singh- I enjoy watching cricket. I keep myself updated with it as much as I can but on days when I can’t watch, I am happy with the highlights. This year IPL will not be in India and that is something I feel bad about. However, keeping everyone healthy and safe is a priority and crowds should be avoided at all cost. I love seeing MS Dhoni play, so I will be rooting for him this time. Not supporting any team in particular but will cheer for Mahi as much as I can. I hope I can find time to watch all the matches.

Tele-Celebs echo in unison on Hathras gang-rape case: “Hang them”

CineBuster Online | Updated — Sat, 03 Oct 2020 19:12:41 +0000

The Hathras gang rape case shook the whole nation. The brutal torture and pain that Manisha went through is unimaginable. This is not the first time. A 19 year-old in Balrampur was raped and sent home on a rickshaw with a glucose drip in her hand. Members of the entertainment industry share their views on the state of the country and come up with ways to make sure that justice is served to the victims.

No one, even in their worst nightmare, could imagine what the rape victims go through, not only from the physical perspective but also mentally. In the Nirbhaya case, justice was served but did the decision come very late?

Nishant Singh Malkhani- The Hathras gang rape case has really disturbed me. I really hope and pray that the accused are punished with the same brutality as the crime that they committed. A girl is forced against her will to the extent that she dies, this is what rape is and it must be dealt with very seriously. The victim and her family need justice quickly, not like the Nirbhaya case which took so long. Rapes happen all over the country and these animals have not even spared babies. I feel that rapists must be given the harshest of punishments. The time has come for us, as a country, to stand up against these crimes. Women need to be respected, they cannot be treated as commodities

Bhavesh Kumar- We haven’t set an example of these cases and some people take them lightly. It is a shame that after so many judgements, people still have this kind of mindset. I think Saudi Arabia and other Saudi countries have much a more cruel law for a rapist. if you see a video of Yemen, a rapist is shot dead within 5 min of his arrest but I think that proper Investigation is also necessary because we need to know the whole truth as sometimes there can be fake accusations.

Vijayendra Kumeria- It breaks my heart whenever I get to know about any such instance where a woman’s safety has been compromised. It’s high time that proper measures are taken to stop the occurrence of such instances. Such monstrous acts should stop. The trials should be definitely be fast-tracked and the sentence should be nothing less than the death penalty for these insane criminals, once convicted there should be no mercy for their inhuman crime.

Saanand Verma- People who think bad about women are the people who you should be ashamed of being human. They are stains on our society and it is necessary to remove all these stains. These types of rapists and bad people shouldn’t be left free as they will be very dangerous for our sisters, daughters and for every woman out there. Our problem is that whenever this type of horrible incidents happen, we do a candle march, and we talk about many things related to this. But then nothing happens. Yes, the government has made little changes in rules and now the rules are in the favour of women which is very good. But we should be more sensitive towards this topic and we should follow all the government laws so that all these victims get justice.

Dhruvee Haldankar- Justice delayed is justice denied. The Nirbhya case took 7 years for punishment and her mother went through mental imprisonment, fighting all alone. I feel in this country with a population of 140 crores, the youth is influenced easily. Committing a crime is easier than getting punished so people don’t care. Also, thanks to the corruption that exists, it is very difficult to prove facts.

Shivani Gosain- It is so painful to even of the pain that girl must have gone through and how painful and unbearable it is for the family to bear this loss. This was not the first rape and it won’t be the last, because there is no fear of the law! There are so many loopholes in our legal system and delay (like the Nirbhaya case). Our government should set an example by making this a fast-track case and sentencing severe punishment to the criminals on an urgent basis. Punish them such a way that no one should ever dare to think of rape. There is no mercy for such a heinous crime..

Sharad Malhotra- Rape is a crime of violence and sex has always been a matter of great concern, not only in our country but worldwide ..The Nirbhaya case shook the entire nation but has yet not stopped monsters or evil people like these who disrespect women and treat them like they own them. There is a lot of rage and fury amongst the citizens of the country but it is all futile till the govt or the judiciary system takes strict action against such inhumane/evil acts and punishes them severely and quickly, so it could set an example for the others. I strongly condemn rape. Movements such as #Slutmovement or #metoo has also helped people share their own experiences, stories with others making them aware and cautious too.

Shashank Vyas- Let the women of the nation decide what they want to do with these monsters. There should be no trials, no courts, no laws. This is Kalyug, Krishna bhi hum, Arjun bhi hum. We need to take a step now towards stopping such crimes.

Shamin Mannan- It’s sad that no government in power has taken women safety seriously enough. Rape is a hideous and inhuman crime and such cases must be fast-tracked, sentencing severe punishment to the criminals. That would instil fear in the minds of such monsters. The government should start by setting an example and punishing such culprits severely and quickly, otherwise, such incidents will keep repeating. Only because someone belongs to an underprivileged family or wears short dresses, doesn’t mean she can be raped or killed brutally. Moreover, rape has nothing to do with the outfit of a woman, or age, because every other day a woman is getting raped from as young as 3 years old to 70 years old. I see people losing faith in the system now, which itself is unfortunate. Just promising judgement or announcing compensation is not enough now! There must be a strict law for the safety of every girl of our country, which could assure her that even if she walks out alone at night, she will be safe and protected. Also, it’s time the root cause of this problem should be given importance to, that is the misogynistic and patriarchal thought process of people in our country. The thought process of people should change. Period!

Savi Thakur- I feel so ashamed sometimes to be part of such country where such kind of incidents happen every day. But the law is still the same … I want to ask why??? Why can’t you just change it and hang the rapists? It’s not going to stop until the government releases new laws about the punishment of rapists. If you have a look at other countries for the same matter then it’s very clear how they hang the culprits without even thinking twice. I think this should be applied in our country as well. I feel ashamed to say this but this country will never progress until the laws are not fixed.

Aishwarya Sharma- There is a lot to say but i wish I could do something about it. I don’t know why this keeps happening in our country, I can’t even imagine what the victim has gone through. This is a very sad reality and the government should take immediate action about it. The problem with groups who deal with rape is that they try to educate women about how to defend themselves. What really needs to be done is teaching the men not to rape. Go to the source and start there.

Pranitaa Pandit- I feel that the government should actually set an example by making this a fast track case and severely punishing the culprits. Justice is always delayed in our country and that is why people take these things for granted, especially in rape cases. Our government has taken a few steps in the past few years but I still feel that there is a lot of scope to improve. We should really step up the process and fast track the cases so that these kinds of people actually start fearing the law before doing such horrible things.

Khushbhoo Kamal- This very shameful for the people who are living in India. We are in the 21st century but still we are at this stage where our girls are not free to go anywhere. Our country has fought for freedom but still, the women are not free. My first question is to our government…I want to know what are they doing. I feel they should shoot culprit on the spot as they did in the Hyderabad case. The supreme court should grand permission of for this encounter. We have to set strict rules for these kinds of uneducated people so that they will be afraid of doing this again. We don’t have any kind of freedom in India. Encounter is the only solution to stop all this.

Ajay Chaudhary- This is very disturbing as always because this is not for the first time that such a thing is happening. In India, every month something or the other is happening. There should be some strict laws so that there should fear in people’s mind. This is not going to stop. My father was in the army and my brother is still in the army, their whole life is dedicated to the nation.

Ansh Bagri– It is very sad thing that these types of things have become regular in our country. We don’t take any action and our system is busy with other things. I think we all should be united and the culprits should get such a severe punishment so that no one would think of doing such things. The Nirbhaya case happened so many years back yet only now they have got justice. This is not right at all. I don’t know why they delay judgement on such sensitive topics In this situation, they should be hanged till death.

Subuhii Joshii- I am out of words after this incident. When the Nirbhaya case happened, that time also people did candle marches and protested but it took so long to get justice. I think this the responsibility of our government, why do they take so much just to solve these cases. There should be a fast track court where these culprits are punished. Why do we need to wait? They should be hanged till death. This is the only thing they deserve. This will set an example. And if you can’t do this, then handover the culprit to victim’s parents and let them decide what to do.

Mou Das– Rape is the most heinous crimes on earth and it happens every few minutes, forget about the figures that come out in surveys. It’s often said that it is important to teach girls self-defence and men to respect women. I think all these teachings aren’t the way out. Rapists are sick. Every time this happens and everyone says that some strict laws should be implemented to punish the criminals. Yes, even I agree with that. The law against rape should be so stern that people fear it.

Definitely, people committing this crime do not fear the law because they know that even after they are caught, there is no such punishment. After this Hathras brutality and the way the case is being covered up, it is shameful.

Television celebrities acknowledge importance of Coffee in their lives on ‘International Coffee Day‘

CineBuster Online | Updated — Thu, 01 Oct 2020 19:09:49 +0000

Everyone has a favourite beverage to lift the mood and coffee wins hands down as it’s favourite of the majority. They say “A bad day with coffee is much better than a good day without it.” If you are a coffee lover then you will know what that one cup of coffee means to you. So on International Coffee Day, which is observed on October 1 to promote and celebrate coffee as a beverage, celebs talk about their love for coffee. Read on……

Sharad Malhotra: Coffee is a hug in a mug. I like coffee and have it occasionally. But I love its aroma. I agree that starting your day with a cup of coffee gives you the energy for a day, and on some days I love to start my day with a cup of coffee.

Bhavesh Kumar: I love coffee but I am not mad about it. Being a sports person I don’t have either tea or coffee. Even now I don’t drink coffee that much, but when I do I drink around half litre cold coffee, and I want to have the biggest mug. I drink coffee when I have a late-night shoot and I have to stay awake the whole night. I even tried the dalgona coffee trend, and I loved it.

Avinash Mukherjee: I love and live on coffee. I love my black coffee and have at least six to seven mugs of coffee a day on average.

Srishti Jain: I mean who doesn’t enjoy a good cup of coffee? Whenever I feel low on energy or have a splitting headache a cup of coffee can fix my mood and my headache in no time. From taking the first whiff of freshly brewed coffee to the first sip is bliss. I usually have around one to two cups of coffee every day. I prefer my Americano hot. Wishing all the coffee lovers a very happy World Coffee Day!

Shivani Gosain: I was a complete chai lover but lately I have developed my taste for coffee and I am loving it. Usually, I have a cup of coffee only when I have an official meeting or when I am catching up with friends at CCD or Starbucks, etc. But now on shoots also I have started enjoying coffee. While shooting I normally have two cups of coffee in a day.

Ajay Chaudhary: Coffee is a very special drink, but I don’t drink coffee regularly. Coffee plays a very special occasion type of role in my life, like if I want to go for a date with my wife then I go for a coffee date. I make very good coffee and I make it for my wife as she loves it. I feel that my mother-in-law makes the world’s best coffee, even Starbucks doesn’t stand a chance in front of her coffee.

Khushbhoo Kamal: I am a coffee lover and I prefer having strong coffee. I love black coffee and milk coffee. For me, coffee is the biggest stress buster. I have coffee when I feel lazy and sleepy and it kicks in energy. I have two to three cups of coffee every day. I want to wish all the coffee lovers a happy world coffee day.

Rishina Kandhari: I have two to three cups of coffee daily. And I prefer black coffee when I am working out. I love the smell of coffee when I go to buy perfumes I sniff coffee beans more than the perfume bottles. If life will give me lemons, I’ll give them back and ask for some coffee.

Rohit Chaudhary: Of late I have become a coffee lover. Earlier I used to hate coffee but then someone came into life and she is a big-time coffee lover and the first time we met was on a coffee date. Since then I developed a taste for coffee. Coffee for me is romance, my life my partner loves coffee and we spend our time in coffee shops. We don’t miss a single day without having coffee together. One cup of coffee a day has become a ritual now.

Angad Hasija: I love coffee, you can say coffee is my weakness. In the last few weeks I was having three to four cups in a day, that too black coffee, but now I have reduced my intake. Normally I have black coffee only but I have milk coffee too. Whenever I feel low I have a coffee because I am a coffee person. Whenever I travel abroad I try different types of cafes and different types of coffee because there are so many types of coffee available and I love to explore different coffees of different countries.

Vijayendra Kumeria: I love to beat the heat with a glass of cold coffee. Cold coffee is a mood enhancer. I just love the aroma of coffee. I just feel happy and fresh when I sip my homemade cold coffee. I keep a check on my caffeine intake but a glass of cold coffee is what I don’t mind at all.

Savi Thakur: Coffee has become a part of my life. There is not even a single day without coffee. It helps you to stay in shape, it’s good for weight loss, good for your liver and it keeps me energetic. Whenever I feel low at work I just take a sip of black coffee. I usually have it post-lunch because that is the time when you become lazy. I have two to three cups a day.

Nishant Singh Malkhani: I love coffee. I have it first thing in the morning every day. I just love the smell of freshly brewed coffee. It’s not just my mood enhancer, it’s a stress buster and energy booster too. Whenever I feel lazy, I just have a cup of coffee and it kicks in a lot of energy. I usually have two to three cups of coffee in a day.

Ansh Bagri: I love coffee. My day is incomplete if I don’t get coffee. The smell of coffee in the morning makes me happy. It gives me a sense of luxury. I have two cups of coffee in a day and I make sure that I go twice or thrice to a coffee shop but because of the lockdown it’s only take away.

Mou Das: I am not just a coffee lover I am coffeeholic. It is my potion for instant energy. Coffee for me is like how spinach was for popeye. Can’t say how many cups a day as I never say no to coffee anytime

Urvashi Upadhyay Sharle: I am a coffee lover and I love cold coffee more than hot coffee. In cold coffee, we get many variations like a cold coffee milkshake, cold coffee ice cream and I love all the variations of that. There is no specific time to have coffee for me, anytime is coffee time. During childhood, we used to hide while having coffee as it was not allowed but now we have coffee available in every house. Having coffee is also considered a fashion statement and it also boosts your moods. Though October 1 is world coffee day, for me every day is a coffee day as I am a coffee lover.

Yesha Rughani: A Cup of coffee is like a morning alarm to me. It wakes me up! My day ain’t complete without lots and lots of coffee. I prefer Americano/ Black coffee to kick start the day and then a cup of flat white while the sunsets. A cup of coffee also has an emotional attachment, because it always reminds me of how I used to spend that sunset on my swings in my garden with my darling mother and our cups of coffee while I was in my hometown. It used to be our special time.

Vikas Sethi: I am a big lover of coffee. I like my coffee cold and iced. A cup of coffee to me means comfort. I don’t have coffee regularly anymore, I only have it on some days when I feel like.

Jhanvi Sethi: Coffee is my go-to drink. I wake up and start my day with a fresh cup of hot coffee. It refreshes me completely.

Dhruvee Haldankar: Coffee is to be drunk in small quantities like shots, it is a mood enhancer and instantly switches my vibrations towards happiness, love, and euphoria. Toast to the ones who are coffee lovers like me.

Delnaaz Irani: I am not a big coffee fan but since Percy is a huge coffee fan especially a black coffee fan, I have started loving coffee ever since I met him. I am a tea lover. I started drinking more coffee with him and our coffee dates increased. During the lockdown at around 4:30 p.m.he used to make his black coffee then he would make coffee for me. He makes wonderful coffee. I feel it gives you a lot of energy especially people say when you workout you need to have a coffee shot and then go for a workout. I have started loving it recently.

Subuhii Joshii: Are you a coffee lover? That shouldn’t even be a question because how could someone not like coffee? Feeling tired? Have a cup of hot coffee. Feeling hot? Have a cup of cold coffee. I mean a cup of coffee can do wonders. I usually drink coffee before my workout, basically a coffee shot to keep me active for the entire workout.

Jasmin Bhasin: I love coffee. I start my day with coffee, it’s a ritual that I have been following for a very long time now. It’s not just my go-to drink, but also my happy potion.

It is said that everyone, in some respect, is a teacher, some just work harder to do it better. And we couldn’t agree more. A teacher doesn’t necessarily have to mean someone teaching in school or college, and a teacher can be that one person who taught you the meanings of life, or who pushed you and motivated you and encouraged you, to do better. So on the occasion of Teacher’s Day, celebrated on September 5, celebs talk about their teacher, mentor and guru. Read on:

Amal Sehrawat: A person that helps and trains you to look at life objectively and optimistically is the right mentor. My parents and Atul Mongia Sir have been the most important mentors in my life. I still remember the day when I lost all hopes of getting an acting job and my confidence had hit rock bottom, then, my mentors taught me The Art Of Mindfulness i.e. not to judge the situation in light of good or bad, rather accept it the way it is, do my best without thinking of the past or future and only concentrate on the present. It helped me by lightening the burden off my shoulders and maximize my potential.

Vijayendra Kumeria: Guru or mentor for me is the one who shows you the right path and encourages you to do your best. For me, my father is a friend, a mentor, a guide, and also a teacher. When I feel lost, he is the one who guides me. My brother and I studied in the same school, and he is three years elder to me, when I was in Jr. KG he was in second, so I used to meet him in his class sometimes. His class teacher was a beautiful Parsi lady, and she used to give me chocolates and I even told her that I will marry her once I grow up. We still remember that and in fact her kids, who are way elder to me, also laugh about it.

Dhruvee Haldankar: Teaching is a very noble profession that shapes the character, calibre, and future of an individual. I am lucky to have found the best teachers one could get to learn from. Mamta Maharaj Ji, daughter of Pandit Birju Maharaj Ji, is my spiritual guide, who helped me discover the same potentials that she had already realised. Mamta Maharaj is my teacher, trainer, guru and my didi. She taught me kathak, perseverance and how to love. At school, all my teachers loved me, Mrs. Aneeta Arora and Ms. Veena Malik, who would teach me English, Mrs. Branda Briganza who would teach me Maths, were all very fond of my mummy’s pickles and would often ask me to bring new bottles to school.

Ankit Siwach: A guru or mentor need not necessarily be a school or college teacher, and he or she can be any person in life who is directly or indirectly showing us the guiding light. A person who we show full faith in, without any apprehensions, someone who can hold our hand and pull us out of the darkness we might have fallen into. I respect and love all the gurus I have in my life, but I consider my family to be the most important teachers, it is because of them that I shall always remain rooted and place ethics over any temptation. One incident from school I can recall is that when one of my favourite teachers got to know about my feelings for Nupur, I was in class 9 then, and It was very embarrassing and terrifying. I could not sleep for days out of the fear that the news could break out everywhere, but now when we look back and discuss the whole situation, it seems hilarious.

Rajit Dev: My guru or mentor is like a family figure, because after my parents it’s my guru who I have always looked up to. I’ve met many teachers, gurus in my life, and every one has been such an inspiration to me from my school days to working in the film industry. I’ll never forget my teacher Anita Balan from my school days. She is the one who always supported me for inter-school dance competition to even paying my fees when my family was going through a rough time. When I was in college, she gave me her mobile phone and I still have the same number which she gave me. I look up to her on another level. She’s like a mother. Santosh Kale and Mehul Gadani were my first dance teachers who taught me the basics of dancing. I will always be thankful to them my entire life. My favourite mentor is Vaibhavi Merchant, who I worked with for more than 10 years from being a dancer to her chief assistant. Guru is like God. They always give you the right advice to go achieve your dreams.

Shamin Mannan: A real guru or mentor is someone who not only just sticks to teaching a particular craft or subject but also gives life gyan, which stays as real wisdom helping us through life. At different stages I had different mentors who really carved my life. I would like to name Neeraj Kabi Sir from whom I had not only learnt the craft of acting and its intricate details but also learnt a lot about seeing life from a different perspective. He taught me that in order to be a good actor, you need to have a lot of experiences in life, good or bad and not to ever judge the process called life. My most memorable incident from school is when I was in class 10, and I was kicked out of the classroom by my science teacher and was asked to stand outside for the entire period, where she asked me to face the playground without hiding my face, just because I was exchanging smiles with my best friend across the classroom. For me it is memorable, because it was embarrassing for me as my juniors laughed at me and I literally had to hide my face from my teacher and those juniors after the incident. Now that memory makes me laugh that I was so silly to cry for it whole day!

Aashish Mehrotra: Right definition of guru or mentor is someone who selflessly teaches everything that he has experienced in his life. I believe in my life there hasn’t been just one mentor who has always shown me the path but I think as you grow up you find those mentors just next to you, may be your dad, neighbour or student as I have been dance instructor for about twelve years. At school, teachers like Madhuri ma’am, Mukta ma’am, Ajay sir and other teachers, would save me from going to the principal. In Mumbai I have two strong teachers one is Mr. Kavish Sinha, he is a casting director now but earlier he was into marketing. When I came to mumbai he guided me a lot and he was the one who sent me to Saurav Sachdeva. I am blessed to have my classes with Saurav sir and Prashant sir.

Rohit Chaudhary: One true guru or mentor is who can recognise you and understand you, your ability, your hidden talent and what you want to achieve in life and who always pushes you, motivates you and guides you to achieve your goal. My mentor is my father who has shown me the right path. He has taught me to always to tell the truth. He taught me not to hurt anyone emotionally, financially and physically, he has taught me to be disciplined in life, he told me to be the man of words and make sure I fulfill all my commitments. I want my children to learn the same. I lost my mother at a very young age, so at school everyone used to have lunch during breaks, but I never carried one, then my teacher Mrs. Walia ma’am would share her tiffin with me. On teacher’s day I would like to remember goddess Saraswati and my father for guiding me. And I also remember Mrs. Walia.

Shilpa Raizada: We should always have one guru or mentor in our life because he will always guide us to take the right path. In this field, my guru and mentor, whom I respect the most after my parents, is Ravi Williams sir. He is a director, writer, producer, he is a self-made man. I know him for the last 14 years and before coming to Mumbai I worked with him as an anchor. I always remember this one incident, and I forgot a line during anchoring as it was in pure Hindi and there were a huge number of people present and it was very embarrassing for me. I cried a lot and at that time sir told me that you have the ability to work hard and you will definitely grow. Due to this pandemic he always calls me and asks me to take care of myself as j have to do more work. We have a father-daughter kind of relationship. Even during school and college days, my teachers always motivated me.

Angad Hasija: The person whom I call my guru, my mentor is my mother. I have learnt so many things from her. She taught me how to take a decision or how to handle a situation and how to be strong while facing any problem even though you have achieved everything. I remember something that she told me when ‘Sapna Baabul Ka… Bidaai’ became super hit. She said now you will become a star but always remember one thing that ‘jhukhe huye ped par hi phal lagte hain’. What she said has a very deep meaning, and I always follow it. I remember my school teachers loved me a lot and now they give my examples to other student and it is very big achievement.

Urvashi Upadhyay Sharle: It’s very difficult to define a guru or mentor. However, I believe our first teacher is always our mother, because she is the one who introduces us to the world. I have explored a lot, like I am a trained classical dancer, I have done B.Ed too. I have learnt a lot being a teacher and my students have also taught me a lot. Even during my theatre days I had a guru, who taught me how to an actor on stage as being a dancer it can sometimes be difficult. I then learnt Bharatnatyam in Surat, my guru was a Parsi lady, and she had a gold medal. She supported me a lot, and even used to come on the set of ‘Hamari Devrani’ to teach me the dance form. I learnt Tarot in 2011, I was pregnant then and my guru used to visit my home to teach me. My biggest guru is my husband. An artist is very emotional, but he is so practical and always gives me a reality check. He has guided me through a lot of things, and I always talk to him before taking any decision. He has been unbiased with all his suggestions and decisions and it has helped me a lot. I just want to mention that life teaches us a lot, and we meet a lot of people who teach us different things, but guru is someone who stands by us and supports us and I am lucky to have found these gurus in my life.

Amit Sarin: People think only a teacher can be called a guru or mentor, but I think otherwise. Guru or mentor can be anyone who guides you on the right path and teaches you the hard lessons. My guru or mentor is life itself. It’s life where you meet so many people, it’s life that takes you to various destinations and it’s life that teaches you how to trust and how to love. It’s a big circle and of you do something wrong, you pay for it here, and learn from it, and if you do something good, you get rewarded, and that’s also a learning.

Kettan Singh: Guru or mentor is someone who guides you rightly and supports you even in the times of crisis. My guru is life itself, whenever I lost the path, life taught me a lesson to stand up, and focus on the positive side. One interesting incident from my school days that became a learning for me was something that I saw my Hindi teacher doing. I had a huge crush on her then, and her smile was so infectious that I didn’t want her class to end ever. I learnt to smile at every situation from her.

Rahul Sharma: The right definition of guru and mentor is one shows you the right path, and makes you aware about your abilities. I think life itself is a mentor and guru, because it has taught me a lot of things, it has given me situations where I was stuck, it gave me opportunity to grow and learn lots of things about life, it has taught me how to handle any situation, how to grow as a person, how to learn about emotion, life journey and that has been my guru from the past ten years. I met few people whom I can say they are my mentor. A friend of mine, Mr. Harshit, whom I call my big brother is one of my mentors. My father is also my mentor because he taught me a lot, challenged me a lot, he has taught me the lessons in a very hard way so in the initial part of my life he has been my mentor. When I was 20-21, I met Rachna Yadav in speaking classes, when I was preparing to come to Mumbai. I told her that I have a crush on you, I like you I would like to have a wife like you, she sweetly told me that you are so sweet and was very cutely explained to me how the things are and eventually we became friends. She told me lots of things about life and how to take steps in life so thats how we really shared a bond. I am not in touch with her but definitely she is one teacher whom I remember the most.

Mou Das- I believe mentor and guru are two different things. Guru is predominantly a spiritual, religious teacher who will teach you about the ways of life – based on Hindu scriptures and beliefs. Mentors are the ones who can be your guides or teachers. Although there is not much difference, in a way, they both are teachers. Gurus are mostly priest or learned religious elders who help you understand the ways of gods and his worship. However, this can be debated by some by saying that teachers and professors are also gurus. I have no dispute here in this but if you ask me, I reckon I strongly believe this about them. Mentors on the other hand are more of the formal and chosen heroes of our life whom we choose to follow or at least go to them for the right advice on various issues including personal problems. Mentors play a vital role in everyone lives. They are the ones who lay a foundation in your mindset and help you create a perception of your own self or make you believe the one’s they have. For me, both being teachers, Gurus are generally not chosen and Mentors are predominantly chosen by us.

CineBuster Online | Updated — Wed, 19 Aug 2020 17:00:19 +0000

Actor Sushant Singh Rajput’s untimely death have created a furore in public eye. Two states were at loggerheads about the investigating the case. As the matter went to Supreme Court, it gave a verdict of transferring the case to CBI. The Supreme Court on Wednesday (August 19) gave it’s much-awaited decision in late Sushant Singh Rajput’s case. The case has now been handed over to the Central Bureau of Investigation and this move has been applauded by celebrities and netizens alike. Celebs even called it a big win for SSR’s fan. Read on to know more:

Shashank Vyas: It was a much needed step and though its just the first step towards justice, at least now we can expect an unbiased and fair investigation. I was always in favour of a CBI inquiry, but this goes to his fans, its their victory.

Pranitaa Pandit: I am extremely happy and relieved. I have been following the case and I wanted justice for Sushant. The way the entire case was going CBI inquiry was a must. I am very grateful and happy that the Supreme Court has ordered the same and I am sure we will get answers to a lot of unanswered questions and will get justice for Sushant.

Mohit Malhotra: So finally it happened. It’s a victory not just for Sushant’s family, but for all those who stood up for him. With the Supreme Court ordering a CBI investigation, I feel now we will have a fair investigation and we will get to know what happened to him on that fateful day. Sushant’s family and fans can finally get some relief and hopefully they will get a closure soon, too.

Dhruvee Haldankar: It is apparent that it is on account of political pressure in the state of Maharashtra, and the continuous interference of the media and Sushant’s fans and well-wishers that the CBI will now intervene. The Constitution Bench of the Supreme Court has held that access to justice is a fundamental right and I am glad that his family will get to know the truth now. I only hope that the faith in CBI is affirmed and this case sets an example of true justice in India.

Mou Das: The entire country was looking forward for this verdict. This was well expected. There was a lot of social media support for SSR’s mysterious death and investigation with regards to it. No one knows what the truth is. The verdict today is just the beginning towards a true and fair investigation by the CBI. We can all wait to see what is the final outcome. Truly sad that such a great artist is no more with us. His demise was a shock in itself and the fact that it was said to be a suicide is just to much to digest. Apparently, there are many loose ends which are being tossed up by the media in the investigation. Let’s pray that SSR and his family gets justice and the truth prevails.

Rohit Chaudhary: Yes this is the right decision and we know that CBI will do investigation in a proper and neutral way. The truth will soon come out. Everyone trusts CBI and I feel that some unanswered questions will get their answers, because there is a lot of confusion in it and everyone wants to know the reason behind the death of such a happy and smiling child.

Amal Sehrawat: I am extremely grateful to the Supreme Court of India for their verdict today. Let the justice prevail.

Vijayendra Kumeria: I am happy as I was and am in full support for a CBI probe. I just want the truth to come out as Sushant’s fan, friends and family need a closure. A fair inquiry is needed in this case and all those who are found guilty should be punished without any mercy.

Aarvika Gupta: CBI inquiry is a big relief to all of us as the truth will come out. The Mumbai government should also give full support to CBI so that an evidence cannot be destroyed. Sushant was a very creative and intelligent guy, and his death was a big loss for all of us. Sushant should get justice, and the culprit should be punished.

Shubhangi Atre: Yes, I am extremely happy that Supreme Court has ordered CBI inquiry. Now the truth will come out because many things were very suspicious and mysterious. We should always raise our voice against any injustice and I am extremely happy that Supreme Court has given a verdict for CBI inquiry.

Meera Deosthale: We all were waiting for this verdict and the truth will soon come out. We all want to know what happened with Sushant Singh Rajput. I am really happy by the order and truth shall win.

Jhanvi Sethi: It’s a landmark verdict and I along with the whole country welcome it. Supreme court has restored our faith in the jurisdictional system. Now we all pray for the truth to come out and Sushant Singh Rajput and his family to get justice.

Vikas Sethi: Justice for SSR. Now we will have an honest investigation and SSR and his family will definitely get justice.

Kettan Singh: This decision has come late but given the process, better late than never. This case when pursued with the nepotism glass would not have reached out for justice, it was just calling out names and trolling. Now after so many evidences coming out and so many theories, it was high time that the central agency came forward and started the investigation. Also I hope since its been over two months, this case doesn’t end up like the Aarushi Talwar case.

Avinash Mukherjee: We all were eagerly waiting for this verdict. It’s a big victory for SSR’s fans because there wasn’t a single day when #CBIforSSR was not trending on social media. We all need to know what happened to him and hopefully we will get the answers soon.

Urvashi Upadhyay Sharle: I have been following his case regularly and always wondered how can such a talented boy commit suicide. There is more to this case than what’s visible. We all need answers and we all want justice for Sushant. I am happy that CBI has taken over the case now, at least now we can get some correct answers.
