February 8: The planets and stars in the solar system keep moving, and they have a huge impact on the day-to-day happenings of a person’s life.

Acharya Sanjay Tiwari has the answer to all the questions of your life. Sanjay Tiwari is a highly qualified & renowned astrologer & Vaastu consultant for years. His accurate readings with the combination of his expertise in Vaastu & Lal Kitab through horoscope make him unique. He has an extensive knowledge of Vedic astrology. Acharya ji has done a Ph.D. in Astrological Science & Vaastu.

“Generalized predictions never really work. At best, they can give you a rough outline of what could happen. One can never get the right readings without taking these seven most important components into consideration: Grah, Rashi, Nakshatra, Charan, Sthan, Yuti and Dasha. These are essential to getting a personalized reading from a horoscope,” Acharya ji said.

“I’m always happy to share stories about my life through an astrological lens,” he says. “I give people a heads-up on the astrological weather and help them navigate whatever crazy thing the world is ready to spill next.”

Within 4 years of its launch, Mere Grah Mere Mitra today is changing the way people are interacting with astrologers. “I am humbled and proud at the same time that we got a chance to positively impact the lives of more than 2 crore people in just 4 years,” Tiwari shares.

He said a good astrologer should also be competent to understand and analyze the Desh (country or place), Kaal (time), and Patra (individual). The readings of a person from America cannot be the same as for his counterpart in India though birth time and date are the same. The other qualities that make an astrologer best are his astrological educational pursuits, patience, intuitiveness, the ability to speak his heart with some caution, and devotion to God.

Dr. Sanjay Tiwari has helped thousands of people to find a better and happier life. His clientele has expanded globally and includes individuals from various parts of the world.

New Delhi (India), February 4: With the arrival of the omicron variant, the pandemic roller-coaster ride resumes, but now that the omicron has reached a new low, we may all breathe a sigh of relief. With this, tourism also has rebounded. Traveling to explore new destinations has now begun with utmost care and caution.

Travel is no more just a distant dream. We are considering our travel by doing a thorough research and being mindful of the entire situation and health precautions. Thus, we zero down to those destinations, which are safe in terms of Omicron and Covid, and not far from our country, and yet, offer a refreshing and rejuvenating holiday.

The destination that ticked all the boxes is the Maldives. After doing the due diligence around the Maldives, the vital factor that mattered the most – was how each island of Maldives is isolated, wherein most islands have just one hotel each. Thus – the Maldives, it is for the much-awaited getaway!

The Maldives is apt for Honeymooners – wherein the couple can have all the time to themselves – without following a set trip routine or tick all the sightseeing places. Some of the off-beat experiences in the Maldives that honeymooners should not miss are as follows:

Dine under the stars

Do not miss the chance to have a candlelight dinner under the twinkling stars with the calm, soothing sound of the waves as the background music, and in the company of your beloved.

Indulge in couple spa therapies

Complete relaxation with spa therapies next to your partner, overlooking the grand Indian Ocean, is an experience not to be missed during your Maldives Tour.

Beachside Cinema

Imagine snuggling with your partner while watching a romantic movie on the beach, having your favorite meal with the sound waves of the ocean as the backdrop. Watching a movie in such a gorgeous location will be an experience to cherish.

Take a Stroll on the glowing beach 

During your Maldivian stay, take a romantic stroll with your loved one on Vaadhoo Island. Watch the bioluminescence – with glowing carpet below your feet, twinkling stars above you, with a mild ocean breeze creates the perfect moment to sink in during your Maldivian Honeymoon.

A Romantic Date at Underwater Sea Restaurant

You would have had many romantic dates at several restaurants in town, but experiencing a romantic date at an underwater sea restaurant while viewing fishes, turtles, stingrays, and other marine life swimming all around you – is altogether a different experience.

After planning the destination and various experiences during your holiday – the next vital aspect, to work upon is the accommodation. An overwater villa or an accommodation option above water or next to the beach is what would be the best for honeymooners. But, choosing a resort can be a tricky one. Due to the pandemic, many resorts offer lucrative packages to lure customers. It could lead to even greater confusion about which one to choose. Worry not; seek assistance and advice from our hotel experts to create your customized Maldives tour package.

The ideal time to visit the Maldives is right now. There is never a bad moment to travel to this country. The weather in this country is warm all year round, wherein now – the time between Novembers to April is the best time to visit the Maldives. The temperatures generally range between 25 to 31 degrees Celsius. There may be unpredictable showers, mornings warm and sunny, humid air, and cool sea breeze during the evenings. In March – April, the ocean is quite calm, thus making it favorable for water sports.

With the visa-on-arrival for Indians – Maldives Tourism has been promoting the destination that enables Indians to plan their travel without any hassles with all the safety and hygiene protocols followed stringently. Planning a Maldives honeymoon, these all and a few more things need to be considered, for which destination experts at Flamingo Transworld will guide you.

New Delhi (India), February 4: The spotlight is set on the floor. Are you ready for the fashion revolution that the country has been looking forward to? Breaking barriers of beauty and talent, Erams Entertainment brings the biggest fashion bonanza for this new year with The Ramp Queen 2022.

This high rated fashion show was held this Republic Day in Mumbai which proved to be one of the most highly anticipated events from this year. The hype has been building up from the last year which culminated in a grand show of elegance and beauty. The show truly broke all stereotypes and welcomed the inner vigour that has been enriched by the true heart warming performances on the ramp.

Illustration, textile design, and studio work are frequently included in a fashion school’s curriculum as a technique of teaching emerging designers. But what about designing for consumers with particular requirements? This isn’t something you’d see on a standard curriculum.

“The fact is that there are those who find it harder to fit in and who face various obstacles in the actual world.” On a very intimate level, great design work has the capacity to reshape communities and change lives.

“As a huge section of the community still deems those who are different as weak and vulnerable individuals,” Eram Farhidi, the Chairperson of Erams Entertainment, said, “‘The Ramp Queen 2022’ is a modest effort to make a big change in people’s heads; an effort to make people realise, that physical state is not a barrier in fulfilling their dreams.”

The event was started by the principal guest, Eram Farhidi, and other noteworthy delegates, who bestowed their compliments on all the participants to raise their spirits.

It was tempting to see so many norms shattered, and it would force people to accept beauty in all shapes, sizes, and ages. It will be incredible to observe beauty in all of its forms as we take on preconceptions.

The catwalk parades at The Ramp Queen 2022 and such other events may garner national media attention, but for a handful of increasingly important fashionista bloggers, street style on the sidelines is the actual star. Artists are pulled to this grassroots coverage to spot potential trends and clever mash-ups, resulting in a cycle in which the street inspires fashion, which influences the street.

The show was scheduled for the 26th of January at the HEX lounge in Mumbai. Exceeding all expectations and applause, the show went on to become a huge success which offered the limelight to all the participants. The show also became the venue for the launch of the cinematic poster for “Meet Mr Chang”, a drama film that explores the exploits of a Chinese immigrant living in India amidst the pandemic. The story has been teased and with the release of the poster, Erams Entertainment’s biggest blockbuster of the year is due to drop very soon.

February 4: It is the refined appearance that makes luxe design so desirable. Discovering exactly what luxury interior design certainly varies based on personal preference. However, we at Deco-Arte focus on curating elements that deliver big on comfort, quality, detail, and sophistication. The right selection of finishing materials and refined decor helps to further enhance the composition. We focus on statement pieces to avoid overstuffing but with class. Luxury interior design style requires bringing out some glitz. Metal accents emphasize the room’s appeal and fit well with every style. Metals like Gold, silver, brass, or copper work great in combination with soft and full fabrics like velvet and silk. If you are looking to design a bold space, opt for dark colors and pair it with metal hues.

Amardeep Gulri (Founder & Principal Designer – Deco-Arte) believes that the space should enhance residents’ moods and induce joy but be functional and practical.

The beginning of 2022 can also attract prospective homeowners towards the idea of Luxe Minimalism. High-quality luxury furniture and décor pieces will make a statement in the interior. This face of minimalism will introduce natural materials like marble, wood, and brass. These materials help to create a sense of calmness in spaces. Even a beautifully crafted antique decor piece can never go out of style. Adorn the interiors of your home with such amazing pieces to give the space a luxurious look and feel.

We design bespoke interiors which truly reflects our client’s individual tastes and lifestyle. Commissioning an item of furniture made to a specific set of requirements regarding look, feel and finish is one of the secrets to high-end, luxury interior design.

Amardeep and his team at Deco-Arte meticulously pays attention to their clients‘ preferences – both in style and functionality. The result? A unique piece which will fit perfectly into the proposed interior design scheme, giving a luxurious and cohesive result.

Team at Deco-Arte also believes sustainability in design no longer means compromising on luxury, aesthetics or quality. By creating commercially available, handcrafted designs, they are forging a new future for design, a future where sustainable materials are synonymous with luxury design. While reclaimed wood, bamboo, cork, hemp and natural stone are some of the more obvious natural material choices; innovations in sustainable technology also include designer furniture made from organic and recycled materials, organic paints and wallpapers through to home accessories made from natural textiles and waste. Amardeep neatly summarizes ‘I truly believe sustainability should be synonymous with good design.’

From the table of Mr. Amardeep Gulri,

“The function of design is to let design function flawlessly”

In the trying times today when design needs empathy and understanding, it’s lost into the commercial process. Your home, your space is an integral part of you.  It is an introduction to who you are, your nature and your lifestyle. We at Deco-Arte work on the principle of empathy.

In the time that we spend designing the space, we spend enough time thinking about people who inhibit it.

Our design process is simple yet elaborate. It is to define – Ideate- Conceptualise – Implement- Cherish. Design is anything that makes anything useful, and our team focuses on making every space your dream space.”

Deco-Arte is a multi-disciplinary design and Interior architecture studio founded over a decade ago by Mr. Amardeep Gulri, providing services in the field of Interior Design, Interior Architecture, Interior Turnkey Projects, Furniture, Project Cost Consultancy offering bespoke solutions for residences, restaurants, offices, hotels, and retail showrooms. Ever since its inception the company has worked on over five hundred projects and turned client’s dream space into reality.

Many reputed organizations have honoured the work of Deco-Arte by Mr. Amardeep Gulri by bestowing him with awards like, “The 2021 Global Choice Awards”, “Lux Life-Delhi’s most outstanding multidisciplinary design studio”, “ELDROK India Architecture Awards”, Business Mint – “Most Prominent Interior Design Firm, Delhi NCR” etc..

For team Deco-Arte, designing is not just about turning a space attractive, rather our design philosophy speaks of a blend between practicality, aesthetics, ethics and zeal to make every space artistic. Design is irrelevant if it fails to function. We ensure special attention is paid to the functioning and the smallest of details.

At Deco-Arte, we have a fully integrated team of architects, interior designers, technicians and specialists who work to create solutions based on our client’s budget, scope, schedule and operating practices. Deco-Arte takes pride in saying that there is an eye for details while designing a project, from a facade design to the smallest of furniture.

The upcoming projects at Deco-Arte are a thrill ride and will surely catch eyes everywhere.

February 3: What are the possible things that a couple does while dating? Go for a movie or for candle light dinner or spending time with each other while watching netflix. But out of the blue there is this young couple driven crazily by their love for motorcycle and travelling.

The year 2009 was the most beautiful year for this couple- Sachin Desai and Kiran Singh, as this was the time when they mutually thought to share their happiness and sorrow. Sachin, being from Maharashtra and Kiran coming from Punjab, convincing their family was a tough row to hoe. Yet they dated for 4 long years and finally swore to be the better half of the other in the year 2013.

While covering the North India with her husband, Kiran too got excited to ride the bike instead of just sitting behind. The tabboo of being a female rider did not keep her from listening to her inner call. As always supported by her better half she started riding too. Now what could be more beautiful than having your partner as you biking partner too!

Earlier the couple only used to travel to new places but later they came across the idea of taking their experience to the notice more people like them. Flooded with 87000 subscribers their youtube channel never fails to thrill all their viewers.

Scaling from Mumbai to Ladakh and many more romantic trips this couple is now adorned even by those who once opposed their decision of exploring the world. Kiran and Sachin have also recently bought their dream bike-Triumph Tiger 850 which is all set to give them some of the most wonderful experiences.

This couple has not only inspired many people to set out for the roads which have always been calling them. But they have also arranged all the requirements of a rider in their store – WROOM. WROOM which is a one stop place for meeting all the requirements of any travel lover, stands in Airoli, Navi Mumbai, Mumbai. It has been attracting its customers since the year of its establishment, i.e., 2018.

The best memories of life will always be the unexpected ones.  And what could be better than travelling for introducing yourself to new and surprising experiences? Travelling yet adds to another psychological impact. It helps you to have a clear picture of the human psychology as it brings new people and new culture to you.

There are two different personalities at the beginning and at the end of the journey. At the end you become a new and improved version of yourself with clearer thoughts and brimming confidence. Ready to be exposed to any odd that life throws at you, you become fiercely unbeatable.

February 2: Hailing from aamchi Mumbai, Aniket Patil, with his outgoing nature has been able to carve a niche for himself as a successful chef and entrepreneur. With a degree in Hotel and Tourism Management from Mumbai University and a specialisation in Cooking and Confectionary from Alagappa University, Tamil Nadu, he has paved his way towards success in the hospitality sector. From working at some of the most reputed hotels to co-founding high-end, chic and luxe nightclub and lounge properties like Bombay Cocktail Bar and Boho in the western suburbs of Mumbai, he has been instrumental in revolutionising the nightlife scene for all ages in the ‘city of dreams.’ Ask anyone about their favourite place to have a good time with great music, ambience, food and drinks and the most common answer would be ‘Bombay Cocktail Bar.’

Friendly, witty and enthusiastic, Aniket displays these qualities in the first impression. But, it definitely doesn’t end here because he is much more than this. His interest in food and cooking was evident while he was still schooling and his choice of career was an acceptance of the flow of life. After working for 7 years at prestigious positions with the crème de la crème of the F&B industry, he realised his calling was something else. That, he had always wanted to become an entrepreneur and spread happiness through the skills he acquired and the language of food and music. In 2009, he then embarked on his journey to fulfill this dream, and the rest is history.

Ask him about his motto in life and he will add, “achcha waqt aata nahi hai, lana padhta hai,” which is precisely what he has been working on since the time he had decided to follow his entrepreneurial instinct. Today, with his hard work, he has been able to build many popular brands and is living a life king size!

Aniket specialises in Continental and Italian cuisines, but the menus at his restaurants also feature some of the most delicious dishes in the Indian repertoire. A proof of his true love for all things food! To him, the amalgamation of different ingredients resulting in something new and beautiful has always been exciting. He does just this with his food and beverage offerings to deliver the highest satisfaction to diners.

Aniket swears by the quality and all his ventures are in line with this. He makes sure to implement strict hygiene and food safety regulations to ensure the ‘best’ experience to his guests and patrons. He also continuously encourages his staff to improve themselves, in turn adding to the success of his business.

Often known as the ‘man with a vision’ in his fraternity, it is surprising for many to know that Aniket is a teetotaller, who likes to keep himself humble and low-key in spite of having achieved so much over the years. A trait that is very unusual and unique, especially in a person related to the glamourous side of the hospitality industry. He has been a part of many humanitarian activities too, the recent being during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Aniket plans to expand his business by opening about 40 outlets in the coming future. He is also working on other brand concepts and aims to bring more and more for the people of Mumbai. Besides being a philanthropist and passionate about food, nightlife, developing new recipes, building and scaling his business, he is a globetrotter, tea lover, music and movie buff as well. “This is how I unwind, whenever, if ever, I get time,” he chuckles.
