	 With drums and military tunes in the background, the collection started with earthy hues of olive, ochre and went to deliver striking combinations of mustard yellow, navy blue and black.
	The masculine theme was well presented with a feminine twist and Nidhi from the duo said the team worked day and night for two months to prepare the collection.

Filmmaker Sudhir Mishra feels Indian awards system has improved and recognises talent now.
	Mishra, who is known to maintain distance from popular award shows, said the fact that films like "Talvar" and "Masaan' have bagged trophies proves quality is being recognised by people.
	"Indian awards have become better now. They have started valuing quality. People like Neeraj Ghaywan are getting honoured and movies like 'Masaan' and 'Talvar' are getting awards so it is a good sign," Mishra told PTI.

Filmmaker Sudhir Mishra says the whole debate on the need to chant "Bharat Mata Ki Jai" to show one's love for the country is artificial as patriotism is something which is defined by work and not by mere sloganeering.
	He, however, says he is not siding with All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) leader Asaduddin Owaisi, who recently sparked a controversy when he said he will not chant "Bharat Mata ki Jai".
	Veteran actor Anupam Kher had slammed Owaisi, saying the slogan is the only definition of nationalism but Mishra finds the whole debate artificial.
	"Patriotism for me is when people put their ideas into the work. Your love for your country is only in your work," Mishra told PTI in an interview here.
	"We all should love our country. I don't know what's the fuss about 'Bharat Mata Ki Jai' slogan. That's Anupam Kher's view (if he feels the slogan should be the only definition of nationalism). I have chanted that slogan a lot of times, if you say it at a correct place, I ...

Shabana Azmi says she was never a misfit as a member of Parliament because she always put her point across.
	The "Neerja" actress was a nominated member of the Rajya Sabha in 1997 and considers the tenure as a huge learning experience.
	"I was not a misfit in Parliament because I really looked upon my work as a parliamentarian as separate from being a politician because I was nominated and did not have any constituency to," Azmi said while speaking at the India Today Conclave here.

Javed Akhtar may be one of the most romantic poets in India but his wife Shabana Azmi says the noted lyricist is completely different in real life.
