    One look at Rajkummar Rao’s style files and you will know that he is a guy who is pretty low-maintenance when it comes to fashion. Still, he looks uber stylish and put together. Call it the efforts of a bus of people who take care of his styling and grooming or his knack to carry himself wonderfully in the most basic piece of clothing, Rao has emerged as one of the most stylish stars in Bollywood.

    This is probably why he was a natural choice for H&M to feature in festive fashion film, ‘Brighter Than Ever’ this year which captures the many emotions and feelings of celebrating Diwali with friend and family--or alone--while looking stylish in their breezy and chic festive collection.

    We sat him down for a quick chat where he talked about his collaboration with H&M, his one trusted outfit for Diwali every year and how he makes the festival more sustainable as far as fashion is concerned. Here are the excerpts from the interview.

    Tell us about the H&M's campaign. How is it different from last year's ‘Brighter Than Ever’ campaign and how was your experience filming for it? 
    With an amazing and hospitable crew, it was truly the easiest and most comfortable shoot. The entire experience of shooting with such an interesting and diverse cast along with the brand and production crew, coming together on a set to shoot with a fun brand like H&M was definitely exciting and I am looking forward to the response from the customers and brand friends.
    The film is divided into three scenarios with each one of us highlighting different emotions: excitement, joy, longing, love, and overall a shared desire to celebrate like we used to. My character in the film is a party of one that brings out the pure and simple joy of just celebrating after these tumultuous times.
    What is your go-to Diwali outfit every year? Will it be different this year?
    I feel Diwali is that time of the year when everyone comes together for a long week of celebrations with each one of us representing our personal style from traditional festive looks to casual indo-fusion styles.

    Whether we prefer monochromatic looks or bright colours, we make it a point to add that bit of festive glam to our outfits during this season, which is so special for all of us. I personally love warmer shades for celebratory occasions, whether it’s a traditional kurta or formal jackets. 

    With celebrations becoming more intimate, we’ve been able to really experiment with our festive looks that go beyond the traditional kurta set. 
    What is your favourite piece from H&M's new festive edit? 
    When it comes to my personal style, I feel good when I am wearing my most comfortable set of clothes. H&M is known for offering relaxed yet smart silhouettes that can be dressed up or down to fit the occasion. If I had to pick one piece, it would be the floral print bomber jacket – it’s effortless, functional and versatile. It’s the perfect statement piece that I can easily change into after a long day of shooting for an evening out with friends and family.

    How can we make Diwali more sustainable this year as far as fashion is considered?

    It’s all about the little habits and small changes that gradually change everything. As far as fashion is concerned, we can opt for more conscious materials and lifestyle choices throughout the year and not only for a specific time frame – choose garments made from more sustainable materials, rewear and recycle older clothes.

    A lot of brands have started offering materials that are organic and recycled with great technological innovations. For this collaboration with H&M, something that stands out for me is the interesting mix of more sustainable materials that have been used for this collection - Organic Cotton, Recycled Polyester and even Recycled Silk. 

    Since the collection accommodates styles to easily transition from day to night, what are some quick tips to look put-together for men who are low-maintenance.  
    I think most of us can agree that H&M offers a combination of style and comfort in the most effortless manner. This collection is innovative, fashionable and cool with a range of regular fit shirts to slim fit trousers, relaxed joggers and utility pieces in neutral shades of white and beige along with pops of mint green and fuchsia prints.

    With such a wide range of fits to suit your style and versatile color palette, there is something for everyone from everyday essentials to the freshest styles. You can mix and match separates or keep it simple with overshirts paired with relaxed fit trousers – it is about how you wear it!

    When it comes to the cricket rivalry between India and Pakistan, Harbhajan Singh is often considered to be one of the major contributors to the narrative, especially due to his banter with Shoaib Akhtar.
    As the two sides find themselves one day away from locking horns in the T20 World Cup 2021, Bhajji went on to express his true feelings about the current Pakistani squad and how he doesn’t see any of the batters in their roster, who he feels, has a chance to take on India in the longest format of the game.
    View this post on Instagram
    "There was a time when Pakistan had a very strong team and so did we and that led to some great competitions. In the last 10 years or so, Pakistan's level of cricket, in my opinion, has gone down. No batsman seems to have arrived who makes me feel that they can score consistently in Test cricket," said Harbhajan on Salaam Cricket 2021.
    "T20 is a format in which anyone can score runs. If I look back at maybe 1998, when Anil Kumble took 10 wickets in an innings, Pakistan had batsmen like Inzamam-ul-Haq, Saeed Anwar, Salim Malik, they had bowlers like Wasim Akram, Waqar Younis, and Saqlain Mushtaq."

    "Today it doesn't look Pakistan can compete with India because they have maybe one or two players of that level in their team. The teams that really push India are England or Australia," he said.
    While Pakistan pacer Shoaib Akhtar was also present at the stage, the speedster was unable to defend his cricket board’s stance and agreed that their quality of cricket had gone down significantly in the past two decades or so.

    "Our decline came when mediocrity came in our board. Average people thrive a lot in mediocrity. Mediocrity is the killer of Pakistan cricket, they kept bringing in average people, average leaders and we started declining. This has started since 2002. We had someone who played fast, he destroyed everything, then we had someone who played slow and he also destroyed everything. In the middle of all this we couldn't identify out hero. Maybe our hero should have been someone like Mohammad Yousuf,” Akhtar said.
    "In your country, Sachin (Tendulkar) became the hero, not someone who played fast. Virat (Kohli) and Rohit (Sharma) followed him. We are trying to smash everything, not playing anything along the ground," he said.
    This whole interaction led to a lot of fans of the Pakistan cricket team having a sour taste in their mouth and venting their frustration on the internet:
    india hi shift hoja bhai tu Harbhajan ka sath interview m kutton ki trha zaleel hokar bhi haas raha tha nonsense.
    — Adeel minhas (@OyeAdi1) October 23, 2021@harbhajan_singh Good sir today you washed a lot Shoaib Akhtar. I proud of you Indian.. जय हिंद

    The winters have already started making their appearance felt. On one hand, we love winters for the hot chai and bonfires and on the other hand, we hate it for the dry skin and hair issues it brings along. 

    Anyone with a dry scalp will relate when we say that winters are dreadful. 
    The dryness often results in dandruff. Whether you have a dry scalp or not, skipping the wrath of dandruff is very hard. 
    So how can one get rid of it? 
    By adding some effective anti-dandruff treatments to your hair care routine. 
    From hair oils and creams to anti-dandruff hair shampoos, we’ll help you make the right choice for your hair. 
    Here’s a rundown of nine effective anti-dandruff hair shampoos for men.

    It’s usually the most wonderful and generous time of the year but some of that festive magic has been stolen by the COVID-19. 

    Yes, most of us are travelling, going to work and dining in restaurants now. Thanks to India’s rapid vaccination plan, we’re safer in 2021 than we were in 2020 but we’re not fully out of danger yet.
    Many people have lost their lives even after being vaccinated. So this holiday season, let’s keep all the woes away from our families. Here’s how to celebrate Diwali in the safest way!
    Never, Ever Forget The MaskWe all have a family member or two who have conveniently started ditching their face masks. This certainly shouldn’t become a practice during the festive season. The crowd and the pollution, both will be at a high in November. So not only will wearing a face mask protect you and your family from the virus but also your health and skin from pollution. 
    Match your mask to your outfit and we’ll call that your Diwali look!
    __ECOMPRODUCT__2682__
    __ECOMPRODUCT__2683__
    Don’t Use Sanitiser Before Lighting DiyasAvoid using alcohol-based sanitisers near fire or before lighting diyas and candles. The alcohol in sanitiser can catch fire. Therefore, it’s safer to keep them away from fire or any type of light on Diwali.
    __ECOMPRODUCT__2684__
    __ECOMPRODUCT__2685__
    Carry Water & Paper Soap With You With streets filled with crackers and houses packed with candles and diyas, sanitisers aren’t the best disinfectants to carry. You can carry travel-friendly soaps and water with you instead, to avoid an unwanted incident. 
    __ECOMPRODUCT__2686__
    Vitamin C To The RescueEat lots of food that contains vitamin C, omega fatty acids and other immunity-boosting nutrients. You’ll need to increase your immunity levels to fight the woes that come with the festive season including pollution, virus, cold weather and slow metabolism.
    __ECOMPRODUCT__2687__
    Avoid Wearing Nylon ClothesA piece of advice from our childhood that we almost forgot. Nylon clothes shouldn’t be worn while celebrating Diwali especially if you’re lighting diyas or bursting crackers. A synthetic fibre like nylon sticks to the body and can catch fire easily. Celebrate Diwali safely in cotton kurtas.
    __ECOMPRODUCT__2688__
    __ECOMPRODUCT__2689__
    Workout IndoorsMuch like every year, pollution will be at its peak around Diwali. It is best to plan your workouts indoors, not only to avoid pollution but also, to lower the risk of COVID-19. If we’re lucky, the situation might be different this time. We might witness fewer crackers, less smog but until we’re sure, let’s keep everyone as safe as possible.
    __ECOMPRODUCT__2690__
    The BottomlineSome other rules of celebrating safe Diwali this year are a given—maintain social distancing, avoid hugs and handshakes, keep children indoors, don’t eat outside, meet virtually and last but not least, make it green, cracker-free Diwali.

    Before the T20 World Cup 2021 officially began, the BCCI had announced that Mahendra Singh Dhoni will be joining forces with head coach Ravi Shastri and captain Virat Kohli as a mentor and guide the young players of the team with his winning experience in ICC tournaments.
    While a mentor’s job commonly consists of advising and imparting their wisdom to the relatively inexperienced apprentices, it feels as if Dhoni has decided to look after every aspect of cricket that the Men in Blue need training with.

    Just a couple of days ago, Dhoni could be seen doing certain wicket-keeping drills with Rishabh Pant and it made sense too. The former Indian skipper is considered to be the best to keep wickets for the Indian side and he was trying to help Pant improve his skills as well.
    Then ‘Thala’ was seen discussing team strategies with the skipper, head coach, and the vice-captain of the squad Rohit Sharma. This also made sense as Dhoni has proven time and again that he is a master strategist who can continue to win championships just because of his mind, even if he can’t bat the way he did 10 years ago.

    However, fans finally ran out of words when they saw ‘Captain Cool’ substitute for the throwdown bowlers during the net practice while allowing his teammates to get some batting sessions in the sun.

    — Mr_Snowy_07 (@07Snowy) October 22, 2021Shortly after Dhoni had won his fourth Indian Premier League title with the Chennai Super Kings, BCCI Secretary Jay Shah had revealed that when he asked if Dhoni would be interested in staying back with the team as their mentor for the T20 World Cup, the cricketer agreed almost instantly. 
    Additionally, Shah also mentioned that Dhoni agreed to impart his invaluable knowledge of the game, especially at the biggest stage of them all, to his compatriots, while charging absolutely nothing. 
    India are to begin their T20 World Cup 2021 campaign on Sunday when they play their first match against their biggest rival, the Pakistan cricket squad at the Dubai International Stadium.

    We hear about anti-ageing products. We see anti-ageing products. But do we really use them regularly? 

    The answer is no. Not until we wake up one day and spot some wrinkles already appearing around our eyes. 
    With increased exposure to sun and everyday stress, signs of premature ageing have become extremely common. 
    While ageing cannot be magically stopped, it can be slowed down if you take preventative measures, i.e. start your anti-ageing regimen on time. 
    Here are five face serums for men who want youthful and wrinkle-free skin. 
    1. Niacinamide & Zinc Serum Niacinamide has many benefits for the skin and slowing down the ageing process is one of them. It helps in minimizing the appearance of dark spots, fine lines, wrinkles and pores. Apply this serum after washing and toning your face and see for yourself. 
    __ECOMPRODUCT__2600__
    2. Vitamin C Face Serum Vitamin C is popularly used to reduce pigmentation, however, it’s also one of the best anti-ageing ingredients. This face serum by Mancode is also infused with Hyaluronic Acid. Together, these two ingredients will help you make your skin more plump, youthful and spotless. 
    __ECOMPRODUCT__2678__
    3. Anti-Ageing Face Serum A good anti-ageing serum should have the right ingredients for your skin. This particular one is enriched with not one, but three different ingredients that are scientifically proven to reduce fine lines and wrinkles - Vitamin C, Hyaluronic Acid and Retinol. 
    __ECOMPRODUCT__2679__
    Use this face serum twice a day, for at least 6-8 weeks for visibly better skin. Don’t forget to use it after washing your face and before applying your moisturizer. 
    4. Collagen Peptide Face Serum This vegan and cruelty-free formula is infused with active ingredients, like Collagen and Niacinamide. Both these ingredients help in tightening and toning the skin, while stimulating collagen production. It’s time to welcome rejuvenated and lifted skin. 
    __ECOMPRODUCT__2680__
    5. Retinol Face Serum Retinol is a type of Vitamin A which is known for its anti-ageing benefits. This magical ingredient will also help you reduce acne, blackheads and oil production. Use this retinol face serum at night, after washing your face and using a toner. Avoid using retinol in the day time for best results. 
    __ECOMPRODUCT__2681__
    The Bottomline Ageing is the one thing that most of us dread, be it in terms of hair care or skin care. However, if you do start using the right skincare products, it can easily be prevented or delayed. Alongside using anti-ageing products, make sure that you also start using SPF daily. Sun exposure is one of the most damaging causes of ageing. 
    Protect and heal your skin and your skin will stay young for as long as possible!

    Nepotism has been one of the most pertinent issues plaguing Bollywood. Many actors in the industry have raised their voices and shared their experiences of not having a godfather in the industry to guide them. 
    The viewers have a notion that the actors who have connections in the industry must have had it easy. When Vicky Kaushal stepped into the industry, people assumed that his father Sham Kaushal must have helped him crack his first role. He made his Bollywood debut with Masaan and has come a long way now.
    View this post on Instagram
    I got a chance to interact with Vicky and we talked about how a lot of people had this impression that since he is Sham Kaushal’s son, he must have got it easy. However, it was revealed that Vicky had to work really hard for that one role. 
    Explaining his stance, Vicky said, “Iss industry mein kisi ko asaani se kuch nahi milta chahe woh koi bhi ho. Apoorva, you have seen the industry now enough to know that’s true. I know it’s an outsider's perspective ki sab networking se ho jata hai. Kisi se nahi hota hai. Apne mehnat se hota hai. Aaj kal if a filmmaker is a making a movie on a budget of a Rs 50 or 100 crore, he or she won’t spend the money on an actor who doesn’t know his or her job.” 
    He went on to add, “Meri journey bhi waise thi jaise kisi aur hoti hai. Jaake dawaze knock karo and theatre karo. You have to keep giving auditions and you keep getting rejected too. If I have cracked 10 auditions, I have also failed around 500 auditions. Organically, things started to change. First I got a small part, then second lead and then lead actor role. Iss industry mein there is no trial and error. You have to prove your worth with every movie that you do.” 
    Here’s my interview with the actor: 
    On the professional front, Vicky is basking in the success of his recently released film, Sardar Udham. In the film, Vicky Kaushal was seen as Udham Singh, who assassinated Michael O' Dwyer, former lieutenant governor of Punjab, to avenge the Jallianwala Bagh massacre in Amritsar in 1919. Udham Singh was tried and convicted of murder and hanged in July 1940.

    Talking about playing the role of Sardar Udham Singh, he told us, “I didn’t have any dilemma when I said yes to doing this role because I was hungry for something like this. It’s always a win-win situation for the actor because it’s an opportunity of a lifetime to get the role of a freedom fighter and to relive the Indian freedom struggle. This is an opportunity I can take up with my eyes shut but yes, there was a massive sense of responsibility. Like you mentioned not many know of Sardar Udham Singh and there are many such unsung heroes in our freedom movement. The responsibility here is if people do like the film, this is how they are going to remember him. This is the story they will tell to generations ahead of them and this movie will become the face. That’s a big responsibility.” 
    Directed by Shoojit Sircar, Sardar Udham also stars Shaun Scott, Stephen Hogan, Banita Sandhu, Kirsty Averton, and Amol Parashar. Have you watched the film yet? Let us know how you liked it in the comments below.
