As the British royal family gears up for King Charles’ coronation on May 6, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge along with their kids were spotted enjoying a quiet Easter Sunday. What stood out from the event this time was Kate Middleton’s bright red nail paint that she paired with her chic blue outfit for Easter celebrations. This was the first time they were seen in public as Prince and Princess of Wales.&nbsp;

This was also the first outing for Prince Louis who tagged along for the holiday outing with older siblings Prince George, and Princess Charlotte. The family coordinated in bright blue outfits for the church service. This is where Kate Middleton debuted red nail paint, something she never usually does. Kate is known for wearing neutral hues or going sans nail paint on most occasions. Her red paint stood out against the blue clutch that matched her ensemble.&nbsp;

Meanwhile, late Queen Elizabeth was famous for wearing bright outfits so that she could stand out in the crowd but always kept her nails in neutral colour. In fact, she made sheer pink polish famous in 1989 when her hairstylist revealed that it was “the only colour that Her Majesty would wear”. It’s widely known that Queen Elizabeth found colourful nail polish distracting.&nbsp;

Currently, the British royal family is gearing up for King Charles III’s coronation. It’s unclear whether William’s younger brother’s family, Prince Harry and wife Meghan Markle will make it to the event. In March, a spokesperson for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex said the couple "received email correspondence" regarding King Charles' coronation.

We are lining up top-notch curators and collaborators for the upcoming Serendipity Arts Festival (SAF) in Goa this December as part of our journey to capture South Asia’s richness and diversity, and blend these with the best global art practices. While looking at multiple art forms we also investigate and present the inter-disciplinarity of the many art forms- broadly through visual, performing, culinary and performance arts.”&nbsp;

The 6th physical edition of the festival will also feature a set of special curators including Zubin Balaporia (Music), Vikram Iyanger (Dance), Elizabeth Yorke &amp; Anusha Murthy with Edible Issues, who be the special curators for culinary arts. while Bhagyashree Patwardhan will return to curate a project around local Goan design practices.

Serendipity Arts Festival announces its curators for December 2023

Ever noticed how fingertips and toes shrivel when they’re soaked for more than a few minutes in water? Do you wonder why that happens? Is it part of humans’ evolutionary past and can it reveal about our health?&nbsp;

It’s interesting to note that when we are under water, none of the body parts shrivel like that. Not the hands, legs or even face but just fingers and toes. Scientists have found out that it takes around 3.5 minutes in warm water - 40C for your fingertips to start wrinkling. In cooler temperatures like 20C, it can take up to 10 minutes for the wrinkling to begin.&nbsp;

Earlier, fingertip wrinkling was thought to be a passive response where the upper layers of the skin swelled as water entered the cells via a process called osmosis. In patients with injuries that had severed the median nerve, doctors studied that their fingers did not wrinkle. It’s the main nerves that run down the arm to the hand. The median nerve helps to control so-called sympathetic activities such as sweating and the constriction of blood vessels. It was thus found that the water-inducing wrinkling of fingertips was in fact controlled by the nervous system.

Doctors in the 1970s presented more evidence for this as they proposed using the immersion of the hands in water as a test of nerve damage. Later in 2003, neurologists at the National University Hospital in Singapore found that when the skin on fingertips began to wrinkle, there was a drop in blood flow in the fingers.&nbsp;

When our hands are immersed in water, the sweat ducts in our fingers open up to allow water in, which leads to an imbalance in the salts in our skin. This change in the salt balance triggers the firing of nerve fibres in the fingers, leading to the blood vessels around the sweat ducts to constrict. This leads to loss of volume in the fingertip, which pulls the overlying skin downwards and what we see in wrinkles then. Interestingly, the pattern of the wrinkles depends on the way the outermost layer of skin is anchored to the layers beneath it.

From nerdy to hip in just a few minutes. This is how things changed for a Welsh couple that tied the knot in New York’s Central Park as Avengers star Mark Ruffalo gatecrashed and blessed their union. Best known for his role as Hulk in Avengers, he was passing by as a couple – Klaire Hodgson and Lynz Tanner – were preparing to tie the knot.

The newlyweds couldn’t believe their luck as Mark Ruffalo stopped by, posed for pictures, and seemed genuinely happy for the two. Lynz said, "I was like, 'no, that's not going to be Mark Ruffalo. He's not going to be walking through at the time of my wedding',” before adding that stopped for pictures and wished them well.&nbsp;

It was a quick and spontaneous wedding for the two. Klaire was in New York for a conference in New York and that’s how their New York wedding shaped up. Lynz joined her.&nbsp;

But he stopped to pose for pictures and to wish them well, Lynz added.

Lyndz called the actor "very sweet", adding: "He obviously had somewhere to go and people to see but he stopped and took a few photos."

The couple wanted everything to be low-key. They will not go on honeymoon too as they had some time in New York together before the wedding. They call this trip the honeymoon.&nbsp;

Ahsoka Tano will be getting a new series as per the latest set of announcements at the Star Wars Celebration in London by Lucasfilm. Produced by Jon Favreau and writer Dave Filoni, the series will follow Anakin Skywalker’s beloved Togruta padawan, Ahsoka Tano. Ahsoka&nbsp;series will premiere in August on Disney+.

The first time the Star Wars world introduced Ahsoka to its fans was in the 2008 film Star Wars: The Clone Wards. It was an animated film that follows Ahsoka as she learns from her mentor, Anakin Skywalker, who will become Darth Vader.&nbsp;

Soon after Ahsoka became a fan favourite. The character then returned to the screen after a gap of six years in the Star Wars Rebels animated series. In this, she had gone through a lot and become a powerful Jedi warrior.&nbsp;

Ahsoka also got a live-action treatment in season 2 of The Mandalorian. In this, Rosario Dawson took up the role. Then came a live-action series with Dawson in the lead.&nbsp;

Post her promotion as a Jedi, Ahsoka left the Jedi Order before receiving her official rank as a knight.&nbsp;

Speaking about the role, Rosario Dawson said, “These characters are in really different places in their lives. There is an aspect to the hero’s journey that is very lonely. You sacrifice a lot when you’re out there fighting the good fight. It’s going to be really beautiful and revelatory to see the things that can happen when you work in a community when you find those relationships and the people that you can trust.”

Ahsoka’s mentor Anakin Skywalker is reprised by Hayden Christensen, who played the role in the Star Wars prequel trilogy directed by George Lucas. Other actors who will reprise their roles are David Tennant as the voice of the droid Huyang and Mary Elizabeth Winstead as Hera Syndulla.

Here's everything you need to know about Star Wars new series, Ahsoka

Salman Khan’s new song from his upcoming film Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan, Yentamma, is in the news for all the wrong reasons. A dance number starring Salman Khan, Venkatesh Daggubati, Ram Charan, and Pooja Hegde has come under fire for the misuse of veshti and silly dance steps. (Veshti is a traditional attire for men from Tamil Nadu and some parts of Sri Lanka).&nbsp;

Former cricketer Laxman Sivaramakrishnan has criticised the Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan song in which Salman, Ram, and Venkatesh wore bright yellow shirts and white veshtis. Calling the song “ridiculous”, the former cricketer said, "This is highly ridiculous and degrading our South Indian culture. This is not a lungi, this is a dhoti. A classical outfit which is being shown in a disgusting manner."

A netizen commented, "In temple premises wearing shoes b****y... doesn't deserve a rating." Laxman responded, "Nowadays people do anything for money. Won’t they research what is a Lungi and a Dhoti? Even if it’s a set, it’s being projected as a temple. People associated with the movie should realise, no footwear inside the temple premises. Appealing to @CBFC_India to consider banning this."

On the cricketer’s call for a boycott of the song and the film, a user wrote, "Sir our Indian culture is deep-rooted and will not be degraded by a Bollywood song...." Laxman replied, "That doesn’t mean you keep quiet." Another user contested and wrote, "Agree with you cent percent. But this passes under artistic freedom. Also many would say, it's ok..."&nbsp;

One netizen also wrote, “Someone should seriously educate Bollywood about the difference between Lungi and veshti. Veshti is a traditional wear. Seriously irritating to see these types of vulgar dance moves in traditional wear (sic).” A Twitter user said, “Bollywood trying so hard to cash in on the Telugu fame... that they still don't understand Telugus are not Madrasis. The blatant ignorance is annoying.”

Yentamma is sung by Vishal Dadlani and Payal Dev. The song is written by Shabbir Ahmed. Directed by Farhad Samji, Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan is based on Ajith Kumar’s Tamil blockbuster Veeram. The film also stars Jagapathi Babu, Bhumika Chawla, Vijender Singh, Abhimanyu Singh, Raghav Juyal, Siddharth Nigam, Jassie Gill, Shehnaaz Gill, Palak Tiwari, and Vinali Bhatnagar. The film is set to hit the theatres this Eid.

Laxman replied, "That doesn’t mean you keep quiet." Another user contested and wrote, "Agree with you cent percent. But this passes under artistic freedom. Also many would say, it's ok..." One netizen also wrote, “Someone should seriously educate Bollywood about the difference between Lungi and veshti. Veshti is a traditional wear. Seriously irritating to see these types of vulgar dance moves in traditional wear (sic).” A Twitter user said, “Bollywood trying so hard to cash in on the Telugu fame... that they still don't understand Telugus are not Madrasis. The blatant ignorance is annoying.” Yentamma is sung by Vishal Dadlani and Payal Dev. The song is written by Shabbir Ahmed. Directed by Farhad Samji, Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan is based on Ajith Kumar’s Tamil blockbuster Veeram. The film also stars Jagapathi Babu, Bhumika Chawla, Vijender Singh, Abhimanyu Singh, Raghav Juyal, Siddharth Nigam, Jassie Gill, Shehnaaz Gill, Palak Tiwari, and Vinali Bhatnagar. The film is set to hit the theatres this Eid. WATCH WION LIVE HERE You can now write for wionews.com and be a part of the community. Share your stories and opinions with us here.

Former cricketer slams Salman Khan's song for 'degrading South Indian culture'

If there’s one thing we should know as a race – the skeletons always fall out of&nbsp;the closet, someday or the other. Something similar happened with Indian film director-producer Karan Johar, who is in the news for an old video where he disapproves of Anushka Sharma being a part of the film industry and revealed that he wanted to murder Anushka’s career even before it picked up. With trolls picking on Karan for the same, the filmmaker has now put out a statement on his Instagram in the form of a poem.&nbsp;

It was a Reddit user who stumbled upon an old video of Karan Johar and Anushka Sharma as they attend an event ahead of the release of their film Ae Dil Hai Mushkil.&nbsp;

In the video, Karan was heard saying, “I totally wanted to, completely murder Anushka Sharma’s career. Because when Aditya Chopra showed me her image, I was like, ‘no, no, mad or what, you signing her, you crazy! There is no need for you to sign this Anushka Sharma’. There was another lead actress at that time who I wanted Adi to sign, and I was totally behind the scene sabotaging her completely. The movie also I was reluctantly watching Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi.”

Meanwhile, netizens haven’t taken lightly to this video. With a barrage of negative comments and hate coming his way, Karan Johar has posted an Instagram story that seems like an answer to all the trolls. Taking to Insta story, KJo penned a note which read, “, “Laga lo ilzaam, hum jhukne waalon mein se nahi.., jhoot ka ban jao ghulam…., hum bolne waalon mein se nahi…, jitna neecha dikhaoge…, jitne aarop lagaoge…, hum girne waalon mein se nahi…, humara karam humari Vijay hai…aap utha lo talvaar… Hum marne waalon mein se nahi… (You can accuse me, it won't break me...You can call me a liar, it won't affect me...You can try with all your might to destroy my image, it won't bother me. My work is workship. My work speaks)".

Karan Johar responds to trolls with a poem on hate over 'killing Anushka Sharma's career' viral video

After a super successful year in 2022, Shefali Shah is gearing up for more interesting projects this year. While discussing work and what she plans to do in terms of maneuvering her career with projects she’d like to be associated with, the actress recalled an incident that happened long ago at a crowded place. She revealed that she was touched inappropriately and was made to feel like “crap”. She, however, decided to never talk about it to anyone. She said that she was ashamed of it.&nbsp;

Shefali recently joined a podcast where she spoke about her breakthrough performance in Mira Nair’s Monsoon Wedding. In the film, she spoke about her character Ria Verma, who was sexually abused as a child. The film also starred Naseeruddin Shah, Lillete Dubey, Vasundhara Das, Vijay Raaz, Rajat Kapoor, Randeep Hooda, and Soni Razdan among others.

On how she built that character, Shefali admitted that everyone has gone through it. “Everyone’s gone through it. I remember walking in a crowded market and being touched inappropriately and feeling crap about it. And, never ever saying anything because I wouldn’t say it was guilt but it’s just…shameful.”

When the host questioned if she felt like she invited it somehow, Shefali admitted and said, “Yes. I agree with you. A lot of people think, did I do anything? You feel guilty, and shameful and you feel ‘bhool jao (forget it). Shove it under the carpet kind of thing. Honestly, I don’t think I gave it so much thought that it’s an important conversation to speak about. It was just something that struck straight inside me and the entire film.”

Monsoon Wedding was based on romantic entanglements between people as family members come together to attend a wedding in Delhi. It premiered in the Marché du Film section of the Cannes Film Festival of 2001. It was also nominated for a Golden Globe Award and fetched the Golden Lion award at the Venice International Film Festival.

Shefali Shah has had a celebrated filmography with several hit films and OTT shows to her credit. In the past few years, she admits to getting meatier roles and characters that have depth where there is a lot of scope for experimentation. She gave three back-to-back hits last year with Jalsa, Darlings, and Doctor G.

Saregama and Suniel Shetty's presentation Disco Dancer-The Musical&nbsp;directed by Rajiv Goswami has created a huge buzz even before its premiere on April 14&nbsp;because of the scale at which it is recreating the magic of 80's Bollywood and particularly the Disco era helmed by late music legend Bappi Lahiri.&nbsp;

The cast and crew of the musical were tremendously moved when the icon's daughter Rema Lahiri and grandson Rego B watched the rehearsals and grew understandably emotional. Rema said, "It is hard to believe that my father is no longer around because no matter where I go, his music follows me. I was completely overwhelmed while watching the rehearsals of 'Disco Dancer-The Musical' because it is the perfect tribute to my father's music. I wish he was here with us to see this production with all of us. It has been mounted on such a huge scale and no effort has been spared to recreate the era when this film and its music were making huge waves across the world."

Her son and aspiring musician Rego B was equally enchanted and said, "As someone who wants to live up to the legacy left behind by my grandfather, this show was a reminder of just how iconic he truly was. Creating a score that people are still dancing to! Imagine the amount of joy he has given to so many generations of music lovers! Now, that is something worth aspiring to do! I am so grateful that Saregama gave us a chance to see the rehearsals. It was truly a very emotional experience for my mother and me." 
&nbsp; 
Disco Dancer-The Musical will premiere from 14 April to 23&nbsp;April at NSCI Dome.

Bappi Lahiri's family gets emotional while watching the rehearsals of Disco Dancer-The Musical

Not always can one visit an expert to get basic jewellery cleaned and that is exactly why we have come up with a list of things you can do to take care of it naturally, at home, DIY style. A few basic things you will have to note before you make a cleaning mix for your jewellery is to identify the metal or material used to make that sparkling ring finger or elegant bracelet that you can’t stop wearing on most days.&nbsp;

How to Start

If you want your jewellery to last for a long time and not dull out with wear and tear, avoid wearing them while indulging in any activity that involves high-intensity action and attracts moisture – cleaning, swimming, exercise, and sleeping. If you know you will be out in the sun for too long, try and keep the jewellery in a safe space away from extreme heat. Also, when packing the jewellery, ensure that it doesn’t rub against anything. Always store your jewellery in separate boxes, or cotton folds and do not pack a lot of jewellery in one place. A lot of rubbing can also wear down your jewellery leading it to lose its shine.&nbsp;

<img alt="Store jewellery" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="7c5b0db3-2a4c-420b-9b88-cacdf87cf980" src="//cdn.wionews.com/sites/default/files/inline-images/HORIZONS%20-%202023-04-10T152026.721.jpg" />

Cleaning Basics

Always keep a new toothbrush handy and order some mild detergent that you can use. Also, a fresh piece of cloth that you keep only for cleaning and polishing jewellery. When washing rings or bracelets, the brush comes in handy in washing off the gunk and dirt that collects over time as you go about your daily chores while wearing jewellery.&nbsp;

When cleaning fine chains, it’s always advisable to keep the clasp open and hold the chain to&nbsp;the links and then run it slowly through a folded polishing cloth. For thicker chains, you can use a toothbrush and a polishing cloth, but keep the clasp closed to avoid tangling the links.

<img alt="Gold" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="0bb25b5d-a303-4883-a769-57f2cf2298f5" src="//cdn.wionews.com/sites/default/files/inline-images/HORIZONS%20-%202023-04-10T151607.277.jpg" />

Know Your Jewellery

It’s important to know what your jewellery is made of – is it gold, platinum or silver? Does it have precious stones or semi-precious stones encrusted? Does it have pearls or mixed base metal? The answers to these questions will determine how you clean your jewellery. Essentially, if the jewellery has gemstones like pearls, opals, or emeralds – then it requires a gentle hand to clean it. Meanwhile, diamonds and sapphires are pretty tough and can withstand more intense cleaning and pressure application.&nbsp;

<img alt="Pearl" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="98635af6-96af-458a-9ec8-86b4261ae07e" src="//cdn.wionews.com/sites/default/files/inline-images/HORIZONS%20-%202023-04-10T151624.751.jpg" /> 
&nbsp; 
If the base is silver, since it tarnishes easily, regular upkeep is required. If it's gold, you should avoid cleaning it with harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. If your gold jewellery is plated, it won’t be as resilient as solid gold. Then if it's platinum, you have fewer worries on your back as it’s heavier than both silver and gold.&nbsp;

New-Age Cleaning: Ultrasonic Cleaning

Then there’s the viral TikTok method of ultrasonic cleaning but you obviously need the device to do it. How the cleaners work is it uses high-frequency vibrations to move cleaning solution into the tiny crevices in jewellery that can be hard to reach with traditional cleaning methods.

<img alt="ultrasonic" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="fdb5ad2d-7e6a-47a1-915e-c343d750bf3c" src="//cdn.wionews.com/sites/default/files/inline-images/HORIZONS%20-%202023-04-10T151805.704.jpg" />
