<p>Anna Wintour, the legendary editor-in-chief of American Vogue announced on Thursday (June 26) that she would step aside from the role, which she held for 37 years. After nearly four decades at the helm, shaping not only the fashion magazine but the global cultural industry, Wintour will remain the parent company Condé Nast’s global chief content officer and Vogue’s global editorial director. It might sound like a cliche, but it's indeed the end of an era. Wintour, 75, is the recipient of honours, criticism, scorn and fear, and a cultural powerhouse whether you like her or not.

She took the title global, with huge budgets to spend on models, design, photographs and journalism funded by lavish advertisements and high subscription rates. Wintour was known for axing work without discussion, and was a fixture in the front row at catwalk shows with her unchanging bob haircut. A 2015 documentary about her life pointed to her ice queen image and steely ambition but also revealed her warmer human side. As Conde Nast's chief content officer, she will continue to oversee publications including Vogue, Wired, Vanity Fair, GQ, Conde Nast Traveler and Glamour. (With agency inputs)

<p>As soon as Prada shared a video of models walking the runway in what seemed to be a slicker, plain version of the popular Indian design, social media erupted with reactions. Most were amused, but some were outrage,d and many questioned the lack of cultural credit. &nbsp;</p><h2>Internet reacts: ‘Sarojini went international’<br>&nbsp;</h2><p>Celebrity stylist Anaita Shroff Adajania called out the Luxury brand as she shared a photo from the Prada show on Instagram and pointed out what was on everyone’s mind- these weren't just any designer sandals; they were "a pair of good old Kolhapuri chappals."<br>&nbsp;</p><p>Diet Sabya, meanwhile, shared a long post on how the West was now borrowing from Indian craftsmanship and giving it a label and putting an exorbitant price tag on it.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>“All that embroidery, all that artisanal flex, all produced in India. Always has been,” they added.<br>&nbsp;</p><p>The internet, too, did not hold back as they called out Prada for stealing an idea and not giving due credit.&nbsp;</p><p><br>"How easily brands take away the OG identity and think it’s ok to do that… Guts" wrote a user while another hilariously pointed out, "Sarojini went international."&nbsp;</p><p><br>Another user expressed, "What's new? Take something from us and rebrand them and call it avant garde. I see exploitation.&nbsp;🙃"</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>One wrote, “These joggers are at every street vendor in Delhi’s Lajpat, Sarojini, Karol Bagh, etc. markets&nbsp;😮‍💨 for ₹150-300&nbsp;🥲.”</p><p><br>While fashion always reinvents, Prada’s new design seems to be slightly tone deaf without the label giving appropriate credit to Indian craftsmen.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p>

Originating in Kolhapur, Maharashtra, these leather one-toe slippers have been part of Indian traditional wear for time immemorial. The luxury brand seems to have taken inspiration, rebranded it for the West. 

The West seems to have just woken up to the wonders of Kolhapuri slippers. Italian luxury house Prada recently unveiled its Spring/Summer 2026 Men’s Collection and left desi fashion aficionados shocked in disbelief. The reason: The luxury brand also introduced a new set of footwear that bears a striking similarity to the iconic Kolhapuri chappals or slippers. Originating in Kolhapur, Maharashtra, these leather one-toe slippers have been part of Indian traditional wear for time immemorial. The luxury brand seems to have taken inspiration, rebranded it for the West.

Kolhapuri slippers for Rs 100,000? Prada’s new luxury footwear gets slammed on Internet

<p>Salman Khan is one of those Bollywood superstars who prefers to stay away from the media spotlight and keeps his personal life private. However, he recently made an appearance on the new season of <i>The Great Indian Kapil Show,</i> where he opened up about his serious health struggles.</p><p><br>In the episode that was released on Netflix, the 59-year-old actor disclosed that he has a brain aneurysm, an arteriovenous malformation (AVM) and trigeminal neuralgia.</p><p><br>"I'm out here breaking my bones every day - ribs are fractured, I'm working despite having trigeminal neuralgia, there's an aneurysm in the brain, yet I'm still working. There is also an AV malformation, and still, I'm carrying on," he said.</p><p><br>A brain aneurysm, arteriovenous malformation (AVM) and trigeminal neuralgia are serious neurological disorders that can be difficult for a layman to understand. To help understand these conditions, WION took insights from Dr. Sunil V Furtado, who provided an in-depth explanation of each disorder and its potential effects.</p><h2><br>What are &nbsp;Brain Aneurysm, AVM, and Trigeminal Neuralgia?</h2><p><br>The brain, the body's central control system, is both resilient and susceptible to a range of conditions that can drastically alter the course of a person’s life. Among these are brain aneurysms, arteriovenous malformations (AVMs), and trigeminal neuralgia, each different in nature but sharing the potential to cause severe consequences if left untreated or not diagnosed on time.<br>&nbsp;</p><p>Brain Aneurysm: A brain aneurysm is a weak spot in a blood vessel in the brain, bulging out like a tiny balloon. This "outpouching" can bleed devastatingly in the brain or can put pressure on surrounding nerves or brain tissue. Most aneurysms occur in the Circle of Willis, a network of arteries at the base of the brain.<br>&nbsp;</p><p>Arteriovenous Malformation (AVM): An AVM is a tangle of abnormal blood vessels in the brain where arteries connect directly to veins, bypassing the crucial capillaries. This direct connection leads to high-pressure blood flowing into veins not designed to handle it, increasing the risk of bleeding.<br>&nbsp;</p><p>Trigeminal Neuralgia: This is a chronic pain condition affecting the trigeminal nerve, which carries sensation from your face to your brain. It's characterised by sudden, severe, electric shock-like pain, usually on one side of the face.<br>&nbsp;</p><h2>How Dangerous Are They?<br>&nbsp;</h2><p><strong>• Brain Aneurysm: </strong>A ruptured aneurysm is life-threatening. One-third of people die immediately. Survivors often have severe brain damage. &nbsp;Unruptured ones can also cause problems.<br>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>•Arteriovenous Malformation (AVM): </strong>AVMs can rupture and cause brain bleeding (stroke). This can lead to severe damage, disability, or death. Abnormal blood flow can also harm brain tissue and cause fits or cognitive changes.<br>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>•Trigeminal Neuralgia:</strong> Not deadly, but causes extreme pain. This pain is debilitating. It greatly affects the quality of life and mental health.</p>

<h3><br>Symptoms<br>&nbsp;</h3><p><strong>•Brain Aneurysm: </strong>Often no symptoms until it bursts. If unruptured, symptoms can be headaches, nausea, blurry vision, or memory issues. A burst aneurysm causes a sudden, severe headache ("thunderclap"). Other signs include weak limbs, confusion, speech trouble, loss of balance, or unconsciousness. A small leak might cause milder symptoms first.<br>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>•Arteriovenous Malformation (AVM): </strong>Many have no symptoms until they bleed. When symptoms appear, they can include headaches, seizures, muscle weakness, numbness, vision problems, or speech difficulty. Symptoms depend on the AVM's location.<br>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>•Trigeminal Neuralgia:</strong> Sudden, sharp, electric shock-like facial pain. Triggers include touch, chewing, brushing teeth, shaving or talking. Pain is usually on one side. It comes in short bursts.<br><br><strong>Causes</strong><br>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>•Brain Aneurysm</strong>: The Exact causes are unknown. High blood pressure, smoking, heavy drinking, and drug use are risk factors. Some genetic conditions also increase risk.<br>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>•Arteriovenous Malformation (AVM):</strong> Usually present from birth. Caused by errors in fetal blood vessel development. Symptoms may appear later in life.<br>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>•Trigeminal Neuralgia:</strong> Most often, a blood vessel presses on the trigeminal nerve. Tumours or conditions like multiple sclerosis can also be causes.</p><h2>Treatment Options and Treatability</h2><p><strong>All three conditions are treatable.</strong><br>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>•Brain Aneurysm: </strong>The main goal is to stop or prevent bleeding. Options include open surgery (clipping), endovascular coiling, or flow diverters. Highly treatable if found before rupture. A ruptured aneurysm has high risks. Lifelong monitoring may be needed.</p><p><br><strong>•Arteriovenous Malformation (AVM): </strong>The Aim is to remove the AVM and prevent rupture. Options include surgical removal, embolisation (blocking blood flow), or stereotactic radiosurgery. Treatable, depending on the AVM's features.</p><p><br><strong>•Trigeminal Neuralgia: </strong>Focuses on pain relief. Medications (e.g., &nbsp;certain anticonvulsants) are common. Surgical options include microvascular decompression (MVD) to relieve nerve pressure. Other procedures damage nerve fibres to block pain. Stereotactic radiosurgery also helps. Highly treatable, with many options for pain control.</p><p><br>Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial in managing neurological conditions or any life-altering conditions. Prioritising your brain through a healthy lifestyle, managing blood pressure, and avoiding smoking and alcohol can significantly contribute to a healthier brain. Being proactive and well informed are the first steps towards protecting your vital organs.</p><p><br><i>(Dr Sunil V Furtado, Senior Consultant and Head, Department of Neurosurgery, Ramaiah Institute of Neurosciences, Ramaiah Memorial Hospital, Bengaluru.)</i></p>

Salman Khan recently made an appearance on the new season of The Great Indian Kapil Show, where he opened up about his serious health struggles.



Salman Khan is one of those Bollywood superstars who prefers to stay away from the media spotlight and keeps his personal life private. However, he recently made an appearance on the new season of The Great Indian Kapil Show, where he opened up about his serious health struggles. In the episode that was released on Netflix, the 59-year-old actor disclosed that he has a brain aneurysm, an arteriovenous malformation (AVM) and trigeminal neuralgia. "I'm out here breaking my bones every day - ribs are fractured, I'm working despite having trigeminal neuralgia, there's an aneurysm in the brain, yet I'm still working. There is also an AV malformation, and still, I'm carrying on," he said. A brain aneurysm, arteriovenous malformation (AVM) and trigeminal neuralgia are serious neurological disorders that can be difficult for a layman to understand. To help understand these conditions, WION took insights from Dr. Sunil V Furtado, who provided an in-depth explanation of each disorder and its potential effects. What are Brain Aneurysm, AVM, and Trigeminal Neuralgia? The brain, the body's central control system, is both resilient and susceptible to a range of conditions that can drastically alter the course of a person’s life. Among these are brain aneurysms, arteriovenous malformations (AVMs), and trigeminal neuralgia, each different in nature but sharing the potential to cause severe consequences if left untreated or not diagnosed on time. Brain Aneurysm: A brain aneurysm is a weak spot in a blood vessel in the brain, bulging out like a tiny balloon. This "outpouching" can bleed devastatingly in the brain or can put pressure on surrounding nerves or brain tissue. Most aneurysms occur in the Circle of Willis, a network of arteries at the base of the brain. Arteriovenous Malformation (AVM): An AVM is a tangle of abnormal blood vessels in the brain where arteries connect directly to veins, bypassing the crucial capillaries. This direct connection leads to high-pressure blood flowing into veins not designed to handle it, increasing the risk of bleeding. Trigeminal Neuralgia: This is a chronic pain condition affecting the trigeminal nerve, which carries sensation from your face to your brain. It's characterised by sudden, severe, electric shock-like pain, usually on one side of the face. How Dangerous Are They? • Brain Aneurysm: A ruptured aneurysm is life-threatening. One-third of people die immediately. Survivors often have severe brain damage. Unruptured ones can also cause problems. •Arteriovenous Malformation (AVM): AVMs can rupture and cause brain bleeding (stroke). This can lead to severe damage, disability, or death. Abnormal blood flow can also harm brain tissue and cause fits or cognitive changes. •Trigeminal Neuralgia: Not deadly, but causes extreme pain. This pain is debilitating. It greatly affects the quality of life and mental health.

How yoga and meditation are natural therapies for brain, heart, and gut health? Expert shares insights

<p>Dr. Bindushree Bhandary<br>&nbsp;</p><p>Yoga is essentially a spiritual discipline based on an extremely subtle science, which focuses on bringing harmony between mind and body. It is an art and science of healthy living. &nbsp;As the world comes together to celebrate International Yoga Day, it is a timely reminder that yoga is more than just a physical practice—it’s a holistic lifestyle that nurtures strength, balance and inner awareness. Once considered a niche wellness practice, yoga has now become an integral part of everyday life for millions. Its appeal goes beyond physical toning—offering a powerful pathway to mental clarity, breath awareness, conscious mobility and recovery.</p><p>At the centre of this holistic journey is an ally that is quite commonly overlooked and undervalued: Nutrition. When practised in synergy with mindful, balanced eating, yoga becomes even more powerful, helping individuals unlock greater stamina and better health.</p><p><strong>The Synergy Between Yoga and Smart Nutrition</strong></p><p>Yoga and nutrition share a common purpose: to promote well-being from the inside out. While yoga strengthens the mind-body connection, smart nutrition provides the fuel, as the body needs fuel to perform physical postures (asanas), the mind also relies on nutrients to maintain clarity, calmness, and emotional balance.</p><p>Thoughtfully chosen nutrients support both physical movement and mental clarity. For instance:<br>Yoga may appear gentle, but many styles—like Vinyasa, Ashtanga, or Power Yoga—demand muscular strength, endurance, and control. Macronutrients such as:</p><p>• Carbohydrates, like a pre-workout option. Simple carbohydrates provide immediate energy for sustained asana flow.</p><p>•Proteins aid in muscle recovery and repair after sessions.</p><p>•Healthy fats like omega-3 fatty acids support joint lubrication, long-lasting energy, reduce inflammation and benefit the cardiovascular and brain health. They help minimise oxidative stress, supporting faster recovery and cellular health.</p><p>• Micronutrients: Vitamin C (for collagen production), Calcium &amp; Vitamin D (for bone and joint health), Magnesium and potassium (for muscle health and nerve function) are crucial to protect against injury and enhance flexibility. B vitamins, and antioxidants supports cognitive clarity, stress regulation, and emotional balance.</p><p>Poor nutrition—especially high sugar and processed foods—can impair focus, increase anxiety, and disrupt the calm state yoga aims to cultivate. Without adequate fuel, energy drops, focus wanes, and recovery slows, diminishing the overall effectiveness of practice. Having the right nutrients provides support for both muscle function and flexibility, as well as diminishing inflammation that may become a barrier to movement, as well as mood. Yoga supports healing, but overuse or poor recovery can lead to inflammation. The quality of your food influences the quality of your movement, breath, and focus. Just as yoga builds strength from the inside out, so too should your nutrition. Aligning your dietary choices with your practice can deepen its impact, enhance your performance, and foster long-lasting wellness, both on and off the mat.</p>

<p><strong>Nutrition Timing: Before and After Yoga</strong></p><p>Smart nutrition is not just about what you eat, but also when to eat.</p><p>Pre-yoga: A light, nourishing meal within 2 hours before practice can help you maintain energy without discomfort. Foods high in complex carbohydrates, such as whole grains and fruit, coupled with a small amount of protein, are all helpful in supporting stamina in your practice. During an early morning yoga routine, opt for dry fruits like a couple of dates/ figs/a few raisins, 30- 40 minutes before the yoga session is better.</p><p>Post-yoga: &nbsp;When it comes to meals post-yoga, it's important to refuel energy, repair muscles, and unwind the nervous system. One must consider good protein sources, high protein and simple carbohydrate combination foods for muscle recovery within 15- 40 minutes post the session. Followed by the meal of the day, like whole foods with vegetables and lean protein or plant protein, healthy fats, and whole grains. Building smart nutrition into a habit is the key. One must:</p><p>• Choose a wide range of whole foods, including fruits and vegetables, nuts and seeds, legumes, excellent proteins and whole grains.</p>

This Yoga Day, make every bite count toward flexibility, stamina, and mindfulness

Dr. Bindushree Bhandary Yoga is essentially a spiritual discipline based on an extremely subtle science, which focuses on bringing harmony between mind and body. It is an art and science of healthy living. As the world comes together to celebrate International Yoga Day, it is a timely reminder that yoga is more than just a physical practice—it’s a holistic lifestyle that nurtures strength, balance and inner awareness. Once considered a niche wellness practice, yoga has now become an integral part of everyday life for millions. Its appeal goes beyond physical toning—offering a powerful pathway to mental clarity, breath awareness, conscious mobility and recovery. At the centre of this holistic journey is an ally that is quite commonly overlooked and undervalued: Nutrition. When practised in synergy with mindful, balanced eating, yoga becomes even more powerful, helping individuals unlock greater stamina and better health. The Synergy Between Yoga and Smart Nutrition Yoga and nutrition share a common purpose: to promote well-being from the inside out. While yoga strengthens the mind-body connection, smart nutrition provides the fuel, as the body needs fuel to perform physical postures (asanas), the mind also relies on nutrients to maintain clarity, calmness, and emotional balance. Thoughtfully chosen nutrients support both physical movement and mental clarity. For instance: Yoga may appear gentle, but many styles—like Vinyasa, Ashtanga, or Power Yoga—demand muscular strength, endurance, and control. Macronutrients such as: • Carbohydrates, like a pre-workout option. Simple carbohydrates provide immediate energy for sustained asana flow. •Proteins aid in muscle recovery and repair after sessions. •Healthy fats like omega-3 fatty acids support joint lubrication, long-lasting energy, reduce inflammation and benefit the cardiovascular and brain health. They help minimise oxidative stress, supporting faster recovery and cellular health. • Micronutrients: Vitamin C (for collagen production), Calcium & Vitamin D (for bone and joint health), Magnesium and potassium (for muscle health and nerve function) are crucial to protect against injury and enhance flexibility. B vitamins, and antioxidants supports cognitive clarity, stress regulation, and emotional balance. Poor nutrition—especially high sugar and processed foods—can impair focus, increase anxiety, and disrupt the calm state yoga aims to cultivate. Without adequate fuel, energy drops, focus wanes, and recovery slows, diminishing the overall effectiveness of practice. Having the right nutrients provides support for both muscle function and flexibility, as well as diminishing inflammation that may become a barrier to movement, as well as mood. Yoga supports healing, but overuse or poor recovery can lead to inflammation. The quality of your food influences the quality of your movement, breath, and focus. Just as yoga builds strength from the inside out, so too should your nutrition. Aligning your dietary choices with your practice can deepen its impact, enhance your performance, and foster long-lasting wellness, both on and off the mat.

<p>At the centre of this holistic journey is an ally that is quite commonly overlooked and undervalued: Nutrition. When practised in synergy with mindful, balanced eating, yoga becomes even more powerful, helping individuals unlock greater stamina and better health.</p>

Britain's Catherine, Princess of Wales, who is recovering from cancer, has pulled out of attending the Royal Ascot race meeting.

Britain's Catherine, Princess of Wales, who is recovering from cancer, has pulled out of attending the Royal Ascot race meeting, her Kensington Palace office said on Wednesday. The famed sporting event in Berkshire in southern England is a key event in the royal calendar. Catherine, also known as Kate, would not be attending Royal Ascot with her husband Prince William, King Charles III and Queen Camilla as she continued to "find the right balance following her battle with cancer" the domestic Press Association news agency added. The 43-year-old future queen has been making a gradual return to public duties since she announced she was cancer free in September 2024. In March that year, the mother-of-three revealed she was undergoing a course of "preventative chemotherapy" for an undisclosed cancer. Kate, who in January revealed she was in remission, was said to be disappointed not to able to attend Royal Ascot, a renowned social and sporting occasion for which the royal family come out in force. The annual five-day race meeting was said to be the late Queen Elizabeth II's favourite sporting event. Royal Ascot begins each day of the week with the Royal Procession, a historic tradition in which the monarch and various accompanying members of the royal family arrive along the track in horse-drawn carriages. They then watch the racing from the exclusive Royal Enclosure. The enclosure operates a strict dress code of top hats and morning coats -- jackets with a long "tail" -- for men and hats and knee-length or longer dresses or skirts for women. Charles, 76, has also faced his own cancer battle. The king announced in early 2024 that he too had been diagnosed with an unspecified cancer. He has since returned to public duties, but is still undergoing treatment. Catherine on Saturday appeared on the balcony of Buckingham Palace with the rest of the royal family following Charles's annual birthday parade. On Monday she was photographed attending an official royal event at St George's Chapel on the royal family's Windsor estate, west of London.
