5th Global Fashion and Design Week Biggest in this Part of the Country

Noida: Fashion is not something that exists in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening. In order to be irreplaceable, one must always be different. Dress shabbily and they remember the dress; dress impeccably and they remember the woman. It’s important for young women and men coming out of the fashion schools to think seriously before starting their own collections,” said Sandeep Marwah on the third day of President of 5th Global Fashion & Design Week Noida 2021.

Hayet Talbi Ambassador of Tunisia to India, and Chanrav Burenbayar Charge d’ Affaires of Embassy of Mongolia in India appreciated the show and motivated the upcoming designers. Arpana Agarwal founder Wonder Women Connect was also present there.

The fashion show started with the grand display of garments from the collection of designers like Asushi Jaiswal who projected his influence from Tunisia in the presence of H.E. Hayet Talbi Ambassador of Tunisia. The appreciation also came from the audience when Akshay Rai Ratan brought the range from country of Bosnia & Herzegovina in the presence of H.E. Muhammed Cengic Ambassador of Bosnia.

Rafat impressed the dignities with his creativity especially Chanrav Burenbayar Charge d’ Affaires of Mongolia present on the occasion. Shruti Rawat garments were marvelous and impressed H.E. Ung Sean Ambassador of Cambodia.

WHY DID YOU TAKE UP CPA COURSE ALMOST A DECADE AFTER CA?

I often get this question, and my answer is always the same. I’ve been thinking about updating my knowledge. Being a working professional with a family, it was a big decision, but Sripal sir suggested me to get into CPA course, the US equivalent of CA in India. I went through the course and took advice from some of my friends who had done it, and all suggested that it’s an excellent course to update my knowledge. Moreover, it is an international degree which is globally recognized. It is an added advantage for a CA to pursue CPA to have more opportunities globally as well as in India.

How did you score above the 90s?

Well, to be frank, while I was studying, I never had a goal of getting such high scores of 96 in BEC and 94 in REG. I was just focussed on understanding the topics and continuing my studies. Being a rank holder in CA, it was always in the back of mind that passing would not be a challenge for me, so I focussed on my studies instead of fretting about the result. I think this helped me a lot since if you were scared or tensed about getting the end goal, then you have had half the focus therein. So, I suggest everyone think positively. This will take off a huge burden, and you will be studying much more effectively.

Managing work and studies – How many hours did I study on a daily basis?

As we say in Hindi, there is a “zameen aasman ka farq” between a working professional trying to squeeze in studies in his/her schedule and a student studying full time. Hence, it is much more important for working professionals to have an ultra-flexible schedule for studies since we cannot have the luxury of sticking to a study plan or schedule strictly.

I used to get frustrated initially when I had a specific target in my mind for studying, and then something urgent cropped up at work. Gradually, I made peace with the fact that this was not of much use since then it was becoming counter-productive as I was unable to focus even when I was getting time.

So, my major rule was to keep on studying on a daily basis – whatever time I could squeeze in, I had utilized it effectively. Thus, more than the input method, I focussed on the output method, i.e. instead of the no. of hours I put in, I looked at how many modules I had to complete.

Specific strategies for REG and BEC

REG was a totally new subject since it deals with US taxation, whereas for BEC most of the time, I was just revising what I had already read in CA and B.Com.

Hence, I took the help of the Simandhar for REG. I’ve attended the live classes that they conduct over and above the recorded lectures of Becker that we had access to in the software. Simandhar classes helped me a lot in building my confidence since Surinder Ma’am gave a lot of examples in the Indian context, which helped in grasping the concepts.

Also, she answered all the queries raised by me, which further strengthened the knowledge base.

One of the most useful tools that Simandhar offers are specific Telegram groups. These are basically like study communities, where not only you can ask your own doubts but also learn from others’ doubts as well.

I was very much comfortable with the topics in BEC except for IT. However, there is not much choice but to do it thoroughly since it has more than 15% weightage in the exam. However, do not over study it due to the fear of the chapter – I did it, and it was not an effective usage of my time since after giving the exam I realized that BEC was a general subject related to business. Study all chapters, don’t leave any topics nor give extra emphasis on something as being more important since, in the exams, they can ask any topic (even outside of what you have studied) in BEC.

In the case of written communication, just stick to the model that Mike Potenza tells in the skill master video. Since it was basically essay writing, but they mark you on the structure, don’t fret over whether you would be able to recall the technical content in the exams (I know I didn’t!). Focus on structure and grammar. Use websites like grammarly to check and correct your mistakes. Practice is the key here.

One more tip is to check the Becker FB group since there are many people who share their summary notes (in the files section) – check them so that you don’t need to make it on your own again – you need just to modify some points, as you may deem fit.

Family support

Along with being a working professional, I stay with my parents, am married and have a 2-year-old daughter. Their support is of paramount importance in my life and by virtue of that in my CPA studies too. I know the level of sacrifices that they are making. I sometimes feel that I am robbing my child of the father-daughter bonding time that she deserves and needs, and it becomes greatly difficult to focus on studies on those days. I also have to sacrifice my extroverted lifestyle of meeting with friends and hangouts – my friends don’t call me that much now since they also know the goal that I have set for myself.

Life becomes a lot less fun, but you need to have your end goal in the back of your mind always.

Bonus tips

Ideally, it would help if you were studying one time and then do two revisions before the exams. Also, attempting all the three mock exams is a must. I was hoping you wouldn’t focus on the scores you get there (I got 68 on the first mock of REG!) but do give it strictly in the exam setting, i.e. allocate 4 hours on weekends and complete it in one go. Besides, you have to check whether your speed is up to the mark or not since the CPA exam tests you on your time management skills as well.

Every individual is different, and so is every subject – the bottom line is you can’t have a one size fits all strategy. So, my parting remark is to just keep going on and pushing through – it will definitely have a snowball effect.

REGARDS,

AKSHAY JAISWAL

A humorous play mixed with emotions staged in Lucknow

New Post has been published on https://funnythingshere.xyz/a-humorous-play-mixed-with-emotions-staged-in-lucknow/

A humorous play mixed with emotions staged in Lucknow

Lucknow theatre lovers had a jolly time witnessing the play ‘Dad’s Girlfriend‘ staged at Sangeet Natak Akademi. The play, which was a mixture of satirical comedy and humour, received a great response from the city folks. Director Satya Kaushik’s play revolved around a father-daughter relationship, where Vaidya is a famous and reputed author, who in his continuous search for success, could never devote time to his daughter and wife. The one-liners and funny punches of the actorss kept the audience entertained throughout. By Prachi Arya

She may have wedded the superstar of the ’70s, Rajesh Khanna. But Dimple Kapadia’s life has been no less phenomenal. Married to both the arc-lights and a megastar in the same year she chose to give up one for the other. But Dimple Khanna soon grew up to some sinister home truths. She yearned for the view outside… never mind if it meant walking down alien alleys. From there began her tryst with herself – as an actor, as a woman. A bunch of formula films later, she broke into the parallel orbit and asserted her credibility as an actor. Aitbaar, Kaash, Lekin, Rudaali, Krantiveer, Angaar, Luck By Chance, Being Cyrus, Finding Fanny… Dimple’s rise as an actor has coincided with her growth as a person. While Mrinal Sen compared her to Sophia Loren and described her face as ‘a landscape of desolation’, Feroz Khan called her a woman ‘who’s just dying to be herself on screen’. Like her character Shanichari in Rudaali, a professional mourner who draws from the torment of her soul, Dimple’s performances resonated the angst within.

Love and loss have been her close allies. Be it the death of relationships or the demise of her loved ones, she’s survived it all. While as Bobby she was sheer sunlight, her wine eyes, through the years, reflect a hangover of pain. And to create what better than revisiting the manor of your own memories. Here’s going through the life and times of the incredible actor…

That year – 1973!

Amidst a line-up of a hundred young girls, Raj Kapoor singled out the older daughter of Gujarati entrepreneur Chunilal Kapadia and Betty to be launched opposite his son Rishi Kapoor in Bobby (1973). In fact, her introduction scene in the film was inspired from Raj’s first meeting with muse Nargis decades ago… where an unsuspecting Nargis had opened the door to Raj… running her flour smeared hands through her hair!

But before Bobby could win over the audiences, superstar Rajesh Khanna wooed a 15-year-old Dimple to be his child bride in March ’73. While this unexpected twist left his thousand female fans shattered – some even committed suicide – it was a fairytale wedding for Dimple. For someone, who often strolled past the superstar’s sea-facing bungalow Aashirwad in Bandra to someday walk in as the empress of his castle was a surreal moment. “I came to know him precisely seven days before the marriage. We were together in a flight to Ahmedabad for a show. He sat next to me but did not utter a word. Just as the flight was about to land, he turned towards me, looked hard into my eyes and said he wanted me to marry him,” Dimple once recalled the whirlwind romance. She was 16 to his 31.

Blockbuster Bobby

Six months after her marriage, released RK’s love tale Bobby. “Mujhse dosti karoge?” asks Bobby Braganza in the iconic scene. A cleft on her cherubic face, sherry eyes, a natural naiveté and loads of untouched sexiness… Dimple became a teen icon. She helmed the Bobby cult – the dotted and knotted Bobby blouse and the earphone-hairstyle, the Bobby clips, Bobby sandals… were feverishly followed. She won the Filmfare Award for Best Actress (along with Jaya Bhaduri for Abhimaan). But that was the magnificent anti-climax of her nipped-in-the-bud career. The mehndi on her hands, visible in the last portions of Bobby, was a grim reminder that she was now Kaka’s possession.

The rocky marriage

One can never fathom the reasons behind Rajesh’s impulsive decision to marry Dimple. Some dubbed it as ‘attention seeking’, some called it an ‘ego boost’ for the superstar, who wanted to spite his ex-ladylove, actor/model Anju Mahendroo. But sadly, by the end of 1974 when their first daughter Twinkle Khanna was born (she shares the same birthdate, December 29, with her late father) the cracks in the marriage were evident. Rajesh’s slipping stardom and his alleged alcoholism and abusive ways left his adolescent wife traumatised. Still in her early 20s, in 1982, Dimple, reportedly, moved into her parents’ home with daughters, Twinkle and Rinkie, aged eight and five then. She began working with Ramesh Sippy for her comeback film Saagar. “Right from the beginning of my marriage I knew it wouldn’t work out. My biggest failing is I don’t take a stand. I let people stomp all over me. Finally, when I do put my foot down, it’s too late,” she had told Filmfare in July 1983.

The eventuful ‘80s

Though Saagar was to be her comeback, Dasari Narayana Rao’s Zakhmi Sher (1984), opposite Jeetendra released first. Saagar premiered in August 1985 and was controversial for the scene where she was seen topless for a split second. Her easy performance as Mona D’Silva, torn between her friend (Kamal Haasan) and beloved (Rishi Kapoor), won her the Filmfare Best Actress Award. “Certainly, marriage brings security… I was Mrs Rajesh Khanna. It takes guts to leave all that. But now that I’m earning and fending for myself, I feel more secure. There’s a hell of a difference in spending your time playing cards and acting,” she said to Filmfare in October 1984.

Mukul Anand’s Aitbaar (1985), a Hitchcockian thriller (apparently based on Dial M For Murder) with Suresh Oberoi and Raj Babbar, had her play the beautiful wife of a sadistic husband. The film had soulful music by Bappi Lahiri. The songs Kisi nazar ko tera intezar aaj bhi hai and Awaaz di hai have great recall value.

Rahul Rawail’s actioner Arjun with Sunny Deol added to her reliability just as it sparked off rumours of a liaison between the lead pair. Feroz Khan’s stylised Janbaaz (1986) presented her in a sexy and glamorous avatar and is still remembered for her steamy lovemaking scene with Anil Kapoor in the barn. Dimple’s moment of epiphany came with Mahesh Bhatt’s Kaash (1987). The narrative that dealt with the decline of a superstar (Jackie Shroff) had perhaps a familiar echo for the actress, who was also evolving as a person. Her act of a disillusioned wife and a distraught mother had flashes of brilliance. In fact, Bhatt was then quoted saying, “I couldn’t differentiate between Dimple and Pooja her character… She has gone through so much in her life that… she only has to be herself.” Dimple and Jackie shared a great chemistry as their bond traversed through love, conflict, abuse and estrangement… only to come anew.

The dramatic, though coarse, Zakhmi Aurat (1988) had her play a police officer, who gets gang-raped. After the judicial system fails her, she joins forces with other rape victims to castrate the rapists. The film was a bold statement, hitherto unseen in our films. Another notable film was Mukul Anand’s Insaaf (1987). Her pairing with Vinod Khanna was a beauty meets brawn encounter with the song Sulagti hai aankhen… celebrating it to the hilt. Subhash Ghai’s Ram Lakhan (1989) was another commercial success in her diary.

The offbeat ’90s

“When I do glamorous roles, people say I look haggard. Why can’t directors conceive me in a realistic set-up? Why can’t directors like Mahesh Bhatt and Shyam Benegal sign me?” asked Dimple in a Filmfare interview in September 1985. And the ’90s threw open the floodgates of arthouse cinema for her. Govind Nihalani’s Drishti (1990) had Shekhar Kapur and her as a married urban couple, trying to find meaning in a dithering marriage.

Based on Rabindranath Tagore’s short story, Gulzar’s Lekin (1990), set in Rajasthan, revolved around Vinod Khanna who’s entranced by Reva (Dimple), a spirit. Apparently, to make her character truthful, director Gulzar asked her to refrain from blinking and give a ‘fixed gaze’ for a surreal effect. Another milestone was Kalpana Lajmi’s Rudaali (1993). Also set in Rajasthan, the film was based on Mahasweta Devi’s story about professional mourners. Dimple played Shanichari, a woman who has never cried despite a sad life but is compelled to weep for a living. It won her the National Award. “I was proud; I’d proved that an actress from mainstream cinema could win an award,” she told Filmfare in October 1993.

Mrinal Sen’s 1995 Bengali drama Antareen had her play a woman in a loveless marriage. In Mehul Kumar’s Krantiveer (opposite Nana Patekar), she played a journalist, who becomes a rape victim and received her fourth Filmfare Award as the Best Supporting Actress. Other notable films were Shashilal K Nair’s Angaar (1992), where she played an orphan and Priyadarshan’s Gardish (1993), where she played a prostitute.

The magical millennium

Not averse to playing her age, the 2000s had her dabble with an array of characters. They include Farhan Akhtar’s directorial debut Dil Chahta Hai (2001), where she played Tara Jaiswal, a middle-aged alcoholic divorcee. Her amorphous relationship with much younger artist Siddharth (Khanna) here was a poignant portrayal. Leela (20012), directed by Somnath Sen and co-starring Vinod Khanna, followed her unconventional relationship with a student. The year 2005 saw her unite with Rishi Kapoor in Pyaar Mein Twist. They played two middle-aged single parents, who fall in love. Her part of ex-superstar Neena Walia in Luck by Chance (2009), referred to in the film as ‘a crocodile in a chiffon saree’ was applauded. In 2006, she co-starred with Saif Ali Khan and Naseeruddin Shah in Being Cyrus (2006), directed by Homi Adajania. She essayed Katy, Shah’s neurotic wife, who has an affair with a younger Cyrus. Cocktail (2012) and Finding Fanny (2014) tapped her reserves of fun even as they completed her trinity with Adajania.

The golden years

Through time, her equation with estranged husband Rajesh went through an overhaul. The two, somehow, never divorced and the initial resentment gave way to a newfound mutual respect. This was more than evident, when he was detected with cancer. The family, along with son-in-law Akshay Kumar, rallied around Rajesh, stepping wholeheartedly into Aashirwad once again, giving him the support and care that perhaps only a family could shower. When he passed away on July 18, 2012, he was given a farewell, which was a reminder of the phenomenon he once was.

Today, Dimple seems to be in a peaceful phase. “Rinkie is my child and Twinkle is my mother. Twinkle looks after us all. She tries to make my life as comfortable as possible,” she one shared with Filmfare. Fond of painting and surfing the internet, she’s enjoying the mellow moments that life has thrown her way. “There has been a lot of pain in my life but I don’t find myself going into that area…This could be wrong because people say it’s cathartic to go through the process. I’m scared of losing myself even for a few minutes. It’s too painful. I don’t know whether that’s going to work for me or hit me all at once. But so far life has been kind,” she had once shared with Filmfare. A deep thought indeed!

QUOTES:

Certainly, marriage brings security… I was Mrs Rajesh Khanna. It takes guts to leave all that. But now that I’m earning and fending for myself, I feel more secure. There’s a hell of a difference in spending your time playing cards and acting – Dimple Kapadia to Filmfare in October 1984

There has been a lot of pain in my life but I don’t find myself going into that area…This could be wrong because people say it’s cathartic to go through the process. I’m scared of losing myself even for a few minutes – Dimple to Filmfare in 2010

When I do glamorous roles, people say I look haggard. Why can’t directors conceive me in a realistic set-up? Why can’t directors like Mahesh Bhatt and Shyam Benegal sign me?

-Dimple to Filmfare in September 1985
