It is so beautifully said that you belong to the place where someone thinks about you. Meaning, everyone be it human or animal needs someone who thinks about them, loves them and watches them. For Diana, the lovely doggy, that watcher is non-other than beauty queen Priyanka Chopra.
After featuring consecutively on the covers of two Harper’s Bazaar – one for Arabia and the other for Vietnam – in the month of February, Priyanka Chopra graces the cover of Elle India’s March issue. What grabbed our attention this time is her pet doggy Diana who also makes her debut on Elle India’s magazine issue with her lovely Mumma Priyanka.
Diana is not any ordinary pet as Priyanka’s darling pet is an internet sensation with almost 57K followers. Many actors in the industry have their own lovely companions but none have displayed their obsession as much as Priyanka as she does a photoshoot with Diana.
Diana has earlier posed for the ‘Dogue’ magazine and that was her solo cover. Dogue is a special magazine dedicated to furry companions. You will be surprised to know that Diana is having her separate bed and a celebrity social media manager too. Isn’t she the luckiest pet ever?

6 Simple Ways To Prepare Natural Holi Colors From Your Kitchen Ingredients
Get Daily Updates In Email
Holi is among those festivals in India which is celebrated with immense joy and happiness. Family and friends gather together to wish each other and to celebrate the festival of colors. The day is finally here and there’s a lot of preparations for the big day. Sweets, snacks, different types of dishes and of course the colors. Your nearby shops are full of variety of colors, but are they safe?
Well, they might be or they may not be. These colors are as harmful as they can take your life. If not life, the chemicals and synthetic agents present in artificial colors can cause serious skin problems, irritation, allergies and dry skin. Herbal and chemical free colors are also available at the shops. But you don’t need to spend large amounts of money to play a safe holi. You can make natural colors while sitting at your home, and with your own kitchen ingredients. Yes, that’s true!
Here are 6 ways you can make natural colors at your home, and play a safe holi:
1. Herbal Water Color
For people who like to play wet holi, you can prepare a herbal water color by soaking 100 grams of Tesu flowers in a bucket of water for overnight. In the morning, you will get a beautiful saffron color. Children can fill their balloons or water cannons with this naturally safe water color.
2. Dry Powders with Food Colors
Fond of playing holi only with dry colors? Your kitchen has a solution for that too. Just take rice flour, add proportionate food color and 2 teaspoons of water to make a thick paste. Leave it to dry and then blend it in a grinder to use it as a powdered color.
3. Herbal Gulal
You can prepare a herbal gulal at your home with this simple recipe by beauty expert, Suparna Triha. Take 200 grams of arrowroot powder, 100 gm haldi, 50 gm marigold flowers, 20 gm orange peel powder (finely powdered) and 20 drops essential oil of lemon or sandalwood. Put all the ingredients into a large plastic mixing bowl or tub and hand mix, rubbing together gently. You will see a beautiful yellow colored, safe and natural gulal.
4. Shades of Pink
If you want magenta or shades of pink, beetroot is an excellent option. Boil a few pieces of beetroot in a cup of water to create dark magenta colored water. Or just keep pieces in the water and let it rest for a few hours for the color to develop. For dry powder, grind beetroot to make a paste and let it dry in the sun. Mix with besan or wheat flour and use. Hibiscus flower is also a good alternative.
5. Saffron Tinge
To prepare powder color, take besan and mix it with some haldi and a little water. Then leave it in the sun to dry. For water colors, soak henna leaves in water overnight and use the water to play Holi in the morning. You can also use henna paste.
6. Go Green
You can also prepare colors with the help of leafy vegetables to get the green color. Just make a paste of Spinach and coriander leaves, mix it in water and play.

Russian President or ex England cricket skipper? Confusion explodes on Twitter after an image turns viral
Get Daily Updates In Email
In recent times, England keeper and batsman Jos Buttler shared an image of a male walking in a towel and grinning for the media people.
While skin show is, more often than not, reason enough to create an unprecedented commotion on social media, this picture, however, went viral for more reasons than one.
Whilst Jos had shared the image asking his buffs if they recognized the ex England skipper, on the other end of the query it was almost like a caricature of the blue-black costume or white-gold dress discussion happening.
The image was, as a lot of people acceptably recognized, that of Nasser Hussain — the ex-cricket player and skipper of England cricket squad from the year 1999 to the year 2003 and whose worldwide career remained till the year 2004.
Does anyone recognise this former England captain? @WardyShorts @BumbleCricket pic.twitter.com/upIZ7KmIl4
— Jos Buttler (@josbuttler) February 26, 2018
But after that one look at the picture and you would not be capable of helping, however, hesitate if this is the Russian President Vladimir Putin enjoying in a towel, whilst leaving a lot of people questioning the same.
Whilst loads of correct conjectures were intermingled with people doubting if this is Putin in its place, others sounded in with what they could link the image in the best manner — Indian lungi dance, for one.
“Still trying to one-up @SGanguly99 for the Lord’s shirt off moment!” wrote another Twitter user.

When veteran star Rishi Kapoor met Dawood Ibrahim and was offered ‘everything’
Get Daily Updates In Email
Rishi Kapoor’s frank affirmations in his recently rolled out memoirs ‘Khullam Khulla: Uncensored’ is a special treat for his buffs.
Amongst his tales of becoming an adult, meeting the love of his life Neetu and tasting recognition, career and money in Hindi film industry and beyond, the veteran actor’s tales of his meeting with terrible hooligan Dawood Ibrahim are unique.
The ‘underworld don’, who has been an escapee since the year 1993 is presently in the most wanted record of international law enforcement agency for his massive list of offences. He has given inspiration to a number of Indian crime movies and roles modelled on him, comprising the 2013 movie D-Day’s Goldman that got donned by Rishi Kapoor himself.
Rishi, in his autobiography, mentions about the two times he met the ‘underworld don’. The first was during the year 1988, much before Dawood was escaping from Indian police. The actor was in the city of Dubai with his pal for an “Asha Bhosle-RD Burman night” and don’s regular man witnessed the actor at the airport.
Dawood’s hired man then got to the actor and gave him a telephone stating, “Dawood sa’ab baat karenge (Dawood sa’ab would like to speak to you).” The don after that called Rishi to his home.
Rishi and his pal were then taken in a “lustrous Rolls Royce” to Dawood’s house.
At his residence, Dawood welcomed Rishi Kapoor and his pal and served them tea and biscuits as he did not consume or serve alcohol. There, Dawood talked about his exploits and added that he had no regrets about them.
Before the actor left the residence, Dawood told him, “If you need anything at all, any money, anything, just feel free to ask me.” But, the actor refused.
The second time Rishi met the don was also in the same city in 1989.
The actor was buying shoes with wifey Neetu, where Dawood was also present, together with “eight or ten bodyguards” and “a mobile phone in his hand.”
This time too, Dawood offered to buy Rishi something but the actor said no again. Dawood after that gave Rishi his cellular phone number, however, the actor couldn’t in response as there were no cell phones in India during 1989.

Sridevi’s death has led the entire nation along with his family in a deep sorrow. No one could believe that the diva will pass away all of a sudden one fine day. Well, it’s been three days since Sridevi passed away in Dubai, however, her body is still in Dubai police custody since the investigation is under its way.
The death case has now become a murder mystery. Police are figuring out various possibilities of Sridevi’s death. Initially, it was declared that she died of cardiac arrest then reports came that she died of accidental drowning under the influence of alcohol. There are lots of speculations and the investigators are yet to find the actual cause of death.
Sridevi’s husband Boney and brother-in-law Sanjay Kapoor are currently in Dubai wrapping up the formalities and waiting for Sridevi’s body custody. Meanwhile, in India, Anil Kapoor’s house is filled with stars from every industry visiting to offer their condolence. Sridevi’s step-son Arjun Kapoor and step-daughter Anshula Kapoor too paid their visit and stood beside Sridevi’s daughters Janhvi and Khushi in their difficult times.
Arjun, who was shooting in Punjab, immediately rushed back to Mumbai when he heard about the news. The actor has been quite supportive towards his step-sisters and has been there since Sunday.
And now, Arjun Kapoor has headed to Dubai to be with his dad Boney who has completely broken after Sridevi’s demise. Boney definitely needs someone close to be with and what’s better if his son is beside him!
A source revealed, “Arjun has gone to Dubai this morning to be with his father at the hotel while the formalities are being wrapped up and to oversee the return journey.”
Since Boney Kapoor is not allowed to leave Dubai without Police permission, he will have to be there till all the formalities are completed.
Seems the actor will be there with his father and return back after all the formalities are completed and they get the custody of the actress’ body!
