Tastefully Healthy Nourish Organics

The idea of Nourish Organics finds inspiration in Seema Jindal Jajodia’s real-life experiences. “When life-impacting health complications forced my closest family members to choose consuming organic, I turned to research to understand the impact of being organic as a long-term lifestyle choice. This understanding of the space triggered a sense of developing products that make eating healthy easier for the fast-paced urban population,” she recalls. Seema created Nourish Organics, a homegrown, clean food company that aims at making healthy eating easier for the urban population through sustainable, organic food. Their wide range consists of wholesome, multi-grain breakfast cereals, nutrient-dense cookies, on-the-go snacks, seed and nut combinations, and fruit+fibre health bars. The Founder and MD of Nourish Organics tells TMM that clean eating not only enhances your health but also that of the planet.

THALIS OF INDIA

To whatever extent we adore the fast, fusion and international cuisine, there is something emotional and tasteful about Indian thalis that represent the beauty and vibrancy of Indian states and the food philosophy they live by.

Some of them have borrowed influences from others, while some reflect the tradition that they have inherited from forefathers. Every thali is unique, colourful and certainly worth a try. So, this Independence Day, let’s feel the magic of Thalis of India.

For Shivin Narang, Khatron Ke Khiladi Season 10 happened when one of his shows had just wrapped up and the new one was delayed and was on hold.

WHEN DREAMS COME TRUE SHIVALEEKA OBEROI

As a young girl, Shivaleeka Oberoi often heard stories about her late grandfather, Mahavir Oberoi who was a producer in the 1960s. She never met him, as he passed away before she was even born, but the beautiful girl who found herself in the spotlight with her debut film Yeh Saali Aashiqui, believes the passion for films travelled in her bloodline. “I always knew that ‘films’ were my happy place! If I was not an actor, I would still be working on films. It’s that happy high on a film set that keeps me up and about. I looked nothing like an actress, but I remember, I used to act in front of my relatives and friends for fun. But deep down, I guess before I knew, my heart knew that it skipped a beat when it came to acting,” says the newcomer who started her journey with an acting course and auditioning for roles.
