Aishwarya turns 37, spends day with family

Bollywood queen bee Aishwarya Rai turned 37 on Monday and the Bachchan bahu spent her big day celebrating with her family.
Her birthday was brought in with a family dinner on Sunday night at the Taj Hotel after an awards function attended by Amitabh Bachchan, husband Abhishek, mother-in-law Jaya and sister-in-law Shweta.
“Family dinner at Chinese in Taj where function was held... And brought in Aishwarya birthday... Good feel about the day...(sic),” Big B posted on Twitter.
“It nears past midnight as we stroll out of the Hotel Taj and the wishes for Aishwarya start. Happy birthday daughter-in-law and may you achieve and get all that you so desire,” Amitabh Bachchan wrote on his blog.

‘Stress may not cause weight gain’
New York: Stressed and gaining weight? The stress — and the exercise-slacking or chocolate-munching it breeds — may actually not be the main culprit.
Despite the common belief that stress causes people to pack on weight by reaching for junk food or avoiding exercise, on average it appears to have only small long-term impact at most, according to a study.
A review of 36 previously published studies on stress and weight gain led by Jane Wardle, at University College London, found that the majority showed no association between people’s stress levels and their weight gain over several years.
“We assumed that there would be a substantial association between stress and obesity, since the popular view is that stress contributes to weight gain,” said Andrew Steptoe, who also took part in the study, in an email to Reuters Health. —Reuters

I want to begin with a little story that was told to me by a leading executive at Aptech. He was exercising in a gym with a lot of younger people.

Shekhar Kapur’s Bandit Queen didn’t make the cut. Neither did Shaji Karun’s Piravi, which bagged 31 international awards.
