Greetings on India's Independence Day! Here's an excerpt of our interview with Ambassador Vinod Jacob to mark the occasion.
Young Lafi Anas is something of a celeb in Adliya. He sits outside Leena Pharmacy hawking the two essentials of our hot summer: cool drinking water and tissue boxes to wipe the sweat! Cheery and a great hustler, he has regular customers who not only buy his wares but also tip him generously with a cone of Baskin Robbins ice cream or a burger from nearby stores.
I am sure we will read about young Lafi in later years in business magazines where he will talk fondly about how his empire was built hawking water and face tissues in his spare evenings!
Our third Ramadan Foodventures explores the great-tasting flavours of the spread at Lulu Hypermarket's Hot Foods section.

Ramadan is a time when we fast in a spirit of devotion and reflection.
It is also a time of making the time to share food with family, friends and the needy.

Mohammad Azharuddin needs no introduction - an aggressive batsman, nimble fielder and a great captain...one of his greatest innings that come to mind is his 199 vs Sri Lanka in 1986.
Azhar was in Bahrain as a guest of the Bahrain Cricket Federation. Cricket Bahrain is working hard at raising the level of the sport in Bahrain and the morale boost the national teams and the budding young cricket talent in Bahrain get from these interactions are invaluable.
At the BCF iftar, our digital and social media head, Sonorita Chauhan Mehta, caught up with the @azharflicks to find out what makes a world-class cricketer and his advice for the young cricketing talent in Bahrain.
