Chances are, most of you are somewhere inbetween; you know something bad happened, and everyone's blamingRead more...

By Meena Iyer
When Kareena Kapoor returns from the schedule of Agent Vinod in Latvia around mid September, she has a lot of cleaning up to do. Her best friend, filmmaker Karan Johar, who loves Bebo to distraction, has ordered her to empty her wardrobe.
Karan jokes, “I have asked her to throw out all her old clothes and fill her wardrobe with chaddis (he means shorts) and other skimpy outfits. She has to sport a short haircut and I also want her to try and get herself into a size minus (not a size zero) because she has to match Imran Khan perfectly

I was reading a column last week (no, not one of my fellow columnists). The writer was complaining about “smug people“. Those you see in your office who finish their work before the deadline and make you look bad. The fit people who work out regularly and make you look unhealthy.

I'm here, you're here (well not 'here' where I am 'here', but 'here' somewhere, no doubt. Perhaps even there.) and we're back in business. Ok, explanation time. Where was I?
