He rejects reports that Israel had agreed to end the war as part of a deal to free the hostages
I've always been a big fan of Akshay Kumar - ever since I'd first laid eyes on him in Khiladi - so I was delighted to learn that the unlikely-sounding Toilet: Ek Prem Katha is packing 'em in to the theatres. Read about Bollywood's most bankable star in this week's piece by Khalid Mohamed. And I was, again, delighted to learn that dogs and cats (in that order) are getting a raw deal... and by that I mean they are being initiated into the "raw diet" by loving fur parents; yes, the UAE's first organic pet food company is in business now, and it's always wonderful to read about these kind of heartwarming initiatives.
The Travel piece this time almost made me pack my bags and head out to misty Satoli in Uttarakhand. And back-to-school recipes in Kitchen Classics almost made me think back to my school days... fondly. What it means to have a twin, quite an eye-opener on all the possessiveness pangs. All this and much more.
Enjoy reading WKND and have a great weekend.
