Naisha Bhargabi practices kickboxing to keep herself in supreme fitness and she packs a punch

 Naisha Bhargabi practices kickboxing to keep herself in supreme fitness and she packs a punch

Naisha Bhargabi is a huge fitness enthusiast and we can guess that by her ever charming looks. The young singer cum actor is making a name for herself slowly and her fitness game is right up there with the very best. She looks, leans, means, and sports fitness that very few can proudly claim. She practices kickboxing and that's something that is intense and takes a lot of us. Well, if you got to get to top-notch condition, one has to do what others won't. We have always heard that diet is number one and we are sure she aces that part as well. Kickboxing is great not just for physical fitness but also great for the mental game. It always engages the mind and the body and brings rhythm to the body and who better knows about rhythm than a singer.


Let's just hear it out from herself, "Kickboxing truly is a form of life for me personally. It's not for everyone but it gets all the toxicity out of me and as I leave the mat, I am beaming with positive energies. It makes me go inwards and get the best out of me. I try and look for the deep reserves of energy within me and the sport forces the mind to be just in the moment. We all know of people accomplishing enormous things just with focus and that's what it forces me to do. It's a great cardiovascular activity but again it's for a few.  I can go on and on about it. It has to be experienced to believe and consistency really helps. Let's stay safe and take accountability.  The situation is not completely over and we need to adhere to protocols. Stay safe and love to all."

This girl truly is the epitome of fitness. And she has been doing the drills in spite of a grueling schedule. Cheers to you girl.

Himanee Bhatia dons the writer's hat as she pens down a lovely story about siblings.

 Himanee Bhatia dons the writer's hat as she pens down a lovely story about siblings. 


Himanee is an extremely passionate film buff. She acts, directs and now she is writing as well. She developed this script during the pandemic as the projects were getting delayed. This story is called Ten Fireflies and we immediately like the title. It's about three siblings. The eldest one is a gynecologist, the youngest one an aspiring actress, and the middle one fiddling between his love for music and a corporate job. That's a beautiful story and already relatable. Himanee has a plethora of ideas and we love the way she is trying to bring each of them to fruition. Siblings' story is something that everyone can watch and it's been some time since we saw a good one. 
We spoke to Himanee and here is what she says, "I wrote Ten Fireflies in 2021 when I had 4 projects delayed. Being a creative person, I always wanted to channel my creativity and did so by writing. Ten fireflies is a comedy, drama, romance that revolve around 3 siblings. Sibling is a strange relationship. There is nothing but love there. You can get my kidney when you need but you ain't getting to change the channel when I am watching. This truly embodies the spirit of siblings. I have had the privilege of calling some great souls my siblings and that's where the inspiration comes from. I can't wait for it to materialize and hit screens."
We wish her all the luck. This project is a passion project for her and knowing her, we are assured that she is not going to keep one stone unturned to bring this to life.

Himanee Bhatia starrer film 'Khat' which is a love story around LGBTQ community to release on MX player

 Himani Bhatia starrer film 'Khat' which is a love story around LGBTQ community to release on MX player


Himani Bhatia is known to play diverse characters and is famous for her unique choice in roles. Her upcoming release, Khat is a short film that is a love triangle and is around the LGBTQ community. Himanee plays the character of Dhriti Singha, who is a writer and the protagonist of the film. The film was the official selection at LGBTQ film selection 2019. That itself says a lot about the potential of the cinema and Himanee. It's an important film for us as a society and it furthers the progression that we as a society have been making. We need to take giant strides in this arena and this is going to do a world of good in that sense. The film is to release in March, on MX player.

Himanee says, "This film is extremely close to me. I have had the utmost love and respect for the LGBTQ community. They are as much as part of ours as we are theirs. The way they have been treated over the years has been a shame but we are coming out of that shell. We are a progressive society and we continue to do so. It was an immediate yes as I heard the narration. The film has been doing the rounds of the film festivals and I am glad it will be available for the audience very soon. It's a project that is bound to question our beliefs and sit and think to decide to do what is right and not what is convenient. Time's up for anyone who thinks that they don't belong to society. They make society. Love and light to all "
Those are some stellar words by a very inspiring Himanee. We are stunned to see her brave stance. Let's wait and watch the movie. But there is a battle she has already won.

Rishabh Tandon has found some unfailing adulation among music enthusiasts. Not only because he knows how to hit the right notes, but also because his musical pieces easily shift gears between dreamy pop, intelligent alt-rock, intricate Hindustani classical with equal ease and turn in some unforgettable hooks and brilliant orchestration.

His latest Valentine's special release, Yeh Ashiqui is complex and reminds you of the time you take a sip from your first cup of chai in the morning. It makes you ruminate. The song is soothing as the first drizzle and also powerful as a thunderstorm.

Rishabh Tandon says "Love is about the moments lived that make a Life. It feels I am possessed by the Energy of the Universe, that happens through me.
Music remains the only inseparable love story in my life.
I sincerely thank my parents, family, friends, team members, and fans for  wishing this moment for me in all the passing years of a dark, lonely room to this day today, a journey of a decade - Faक़ीर, Living Limitless"
