Why expensive restaurants can feel uncomfortable even when you can afford them

Financial habits formed during childhood influence present spending behaviors, especially regarding luxury dining experiences. While some individuals feel comfortable with their finances, guilt regarding expensive purchases still persists. Familiarity with dining etiquette can also impact comfort levels in high-end restaurants. Distinguishing between personal values and ingrained beliefs can help in making informed spending choices. Understanding these dynamics is essential for navigating financial decisions without unnecessary anxiety.

Rise and Fall Season 2: Karan Patel returns to the Penthouse as Raj Grover and Kaira Anu exit; new alliances reshape the game

Rise and Fall Season 2 witnessed two exits, Karan Patels return and a major reshuffle of teams in its latest developments. As Raj Grover and Kaira Anu bid farewell to the show, Karan returned to the game, prompting the Rulers to decide whether he would rejoin them in the Penthouse or enter the Basement as a Worker. Meanwhile, fresh alliances and disagreements began to alter the existing power dynamics. Kairas exit proved emotional for Manish Kashyap, who broke down as she said goodbye. Karans return, meanwhile, brought a change in the mood of the house. The Rulers voted on his position, with the majority choosing to welcome him back to the Penthouse. Rishabh Jaiswal was the only one to take a different stance. After returning, Karan reconnected with Niharika Tiwari, and the two discussed game strategy, including how they could use Shehzad Poonawalla to their advantage. Elsewhere, Irina Rudakova confronted Shehzad over comments that had made her feel intimidated. The exchange ended with Shehzad acknowledging the misunderstanding and apologising. Tensions also surfaced between Manish Kashyap and Gautam Gulati following a disagreement over a joke. At the same time, some Workers questioned Sonam Khans alignment with Gautam, adding to the uncertainty surrounding loyalties within the house. The game then underwent a major change through the Batwara twist, which divided both the Penthouse and the Basement into two teams. Under Ultimate Ruler Niharikas watch, the Penthouse teams comprised Shehzad, Swara Bhasker and Sara Gurpal on one side, and Karan, Irina and Rishabh on the other. In the Basement, Gautam, Jashwant Singh and Priyanka Chahar Choudhary formed one team, while Sonam, Manish and Kajal Raghwani made up the other. The contestants were subsequently asked to build alliances across the divide. Karan, Rishabh and Irina joined Gautam, Priyanka and Jashwant, while Shehzad, Swara and Sara teamed up with Manish, Kajal and Sonam. However, the new arrangement soon led to a disagreement. Sara questioned Priyankas willingness to participate in the game. Priyanka maintained that the Workers had decided not to play for Gautam, but Sara accused her of lying. The exchange highlighted the differences emerging among the contestants as the team structure changed. With Karan back in the Penthouse and the Batwara twist bringing new combinations into play, the contestants now face a revised set of alliances and rivalries. How these teams perform under pressure remains to be seen. Produced by Banijay Asia, Rise and Fall Season 2 is hosted by Virender Sehwag and streams free, exclusively on Prime Video, with new episodes released daily at 12 noon. The show is also available through MX Player by Prime Video on the MX Player Android app, as well as on mobile devices, Connected TVs, the Amazon shopping app, Prime Video and Fire TV.

From Desi Fits to Vacay Vibes: Tamannaah Bhatia has a jewellery moodboard for every occasion

Some days, putting an outfit together feels effortless, while on others, even trying on half your wardrobe may not help you find the right look. There are also times when the outfit is sorted but still needs something extra to feel complete. Thats where Tamannaahs style offers some inspiration. The right jewellery can bring an entire look together, and these four outfit moods, inspired by her personal style, are worth bookmarking. For My Desi Fits That Deserve A Little Extra Drama When it comes to traditional dressing, statement jewellery can make all the difference. A saree or an intricately detailed ethnic ensemble already makes an impression, but the right accessories can add to the overall look. Tamannaah demonstrates this with emerald and diamond chandelier drop earrings paired with a heavily embroidered traditional outfit. Whether its a festive celebration, a family gathering or a wedding function, statement jewellery can add a finishing touch to your ensemble. For When Vacay Mode Is Officially ON Holiday dressing calls for breezy outfits, relaxed silhouettes and looks that work from a slow morning to sunset plans. While packing light is often the priority, there is no need to leave your favourite jewellery behind. Tamannaah pairs a simple black top with a gold charm necklace featuring starfish and shell pendants, chunky gold bangles and a pearl cluster ring from her jewellery lines latest collection. The combination offers an easy styling option for holiday outfits. The key is to keep the look effortless, allowing the jewellery to add a touch of sparkle without taking away from the relaxed holiday vibe. For My Casual Office Fits That Need A Little Something Office dressing doesnt always have to be understated. The right accessories can add character to everyday workwear, and jewellery need not be reserved for special occasions. Tamannaah offers inspiration with pearl and gold charm necklaces that can be layered or worn individually, gold and diamond bracelets styled together or separately, and multiple rings worn across her fingers. These pieces add warmth and personality to formal outfits, offering a way to make everyday office looks feel more considered without compromising on a professional appearance. For My I Don't Know What To Wear Kinda Day We all know the feeling of having a full wardrobe but nothing to wear, even when plans are already in place. Before changing your outfit for the third time, switching up your accessories might be all you need. For days when deciding on a look feels difficult, Tamannaah offers an option with a layered blue enamel and gold chain charm necklace featuring a sculptural bird pendant and smoky stone drops, paired with chunky gold pav hoop earrings. The combination adds character to a simple office look, with the blue enamel links bringing a pop of colour and the charm pendants adding a playful touch. Together, these details make an otherwise basic outfit feel more put together. From traditional outfits and holiday looks to everyday workwear and last-minute wardrobe dilemmas, jewellery can be the finishing touch that brings an ensemble together. Tamannaahs styling shows how accessories can be incorporated into everyday dressing rather than reserved only for special occasions. Whether you prefer statement pieces or more understated designs, the key is to choose jewellery that complements your outfit, reflects your personal style and suits your mood.

EXCLUSIVE: Shefali Shah confesses she was not convinced about writing a memoir as her debut book; says, I have copyright over my own story

Actor Shefali Shah has spent years bringing other peoples stories to life on screen. With her debut book, The Audacity of Being: A Sort-of Memoir, published on October 1, 2026, she turns her attention to her own experiences, perspectives and the choices that have shaped her life and career. In an interview with Bollywood Hungama, Shefali opened up about what prompted her to write the book, why she initially considered fiction instead of a memoir, and how she decided which parts of her personal life to share. She also explained why humour was an important part of the writing process and how her experiences as an actor eventually became part of the narrative. Why Shefali Shah decided to write her own story Writing was not an entirely new pursuit for Shefali. The actor had previously maintained a blog and regularly shared her thoughts on social media. Ive been writing for quite some time. I had a blog, and I write on social media. I enjoy it. Im not waiting for someone else to give me something to do. I put in what I feel, what is my perception of things, she said. Although the idea of a book had been suggested to her before, Shefali said, I wanted to start with fiction. And they were like, your first book has to be a novel. It cant be a novella. And we want you to, your first book should be a memoir. So I was not very convinced with it. Shefali eventually considered the suggestion, acknowledging that her publisher had more experience in the business. She also found a sense of ownership in being able to tell her own story in her own words. I have copyright over my own story, she said. The actor added that she has written some fiction, although she is unsure what will happen to that work in the future. Why humour was important to her memoir Shefali also wanted The Audacity of Being: A Sort-of Memoir to be an engaging read rather than a serious account that offered definitive conclusions about life. Humour, she explained, was central to the tone she wanted to establish. I didnt want it to be a moral of the story. And very important, I wanted it to be a fun read, she said. She added that she wanted humour to play a significant role in the book, allowing readers to move through the stories easily rather than feel that they were being told what to think or learn. How Shefali Shahs acting career became part of the book The book did not begin with a fixed structure or a single subject that Shefali wanted to explore. As she worked on the manuscript, conversations with her publisher encouraged her to revisit other aspects of her life. Originally, when it started, it was becoming a personal memoir. But then we also realised that the parts I play are a huge part of me as a person and why I chose them and what went into creating them. And thats how those chapters started coming, she said. Shefali explained that the memoir gradually evolved as these different elements came together, rather than following a rigid plan from the beginning. It was all of it just put together, she said. Ultimately, the actor has left the interpretation of her experiences to her readers. She does not expect the book to offer one definitive message or a prescribed takeaway. I dont know what people are going to take out of it, she said. With The Audacity of Being: A Sort-of Memoir, Shefali Shah brings together her personal reflections and professional experiences while leaving room for readers to form their own understanding of the stories she shares.

EXCLUSIVE: Shefali Shah reveals she takes her sons permission even before sharing their pictures on social media: Its their story as well

Actor Shefali Shah believes that sharing personal stories also comes with a responsibility to respect the privacy of the people involved. While her debut book, The Audacity of Being: A Sort-of Memoir, offers readers a glimpse into her life and experiences, she has been mindful of how much she reveals about the people closest to her, including her husband, filmmaker Vipul Amrutlal Shah, her children and her friends. In an exclusive conversation with Bollywood Hungama, Shefali spoke about the decisions she made while writing the memoir, explaining that she consulted her sons before including chapters about them. One of the big things was when it is about, lets say, Vipul. Or the kids. Or a certain friend. Its their story as well. So I have to maintain that respect, she explained. Shefali Shah seeks her sons permission before sharing their pictures online For Shefali, writing about her family was not a decision she could make entirely on her own. She acknowledged, When I was thinking of certain things, when I wanted to write my kids chapters, I asked the boys. I mean, I have to take their permission even to put a photograph on social media. So I asked them, and they were like, Okay, about this, not about this. The same consideration informed her writing process. Rather than treating her memoir as an account of her experiences alone, Shefali recognised that the people who have been part of her journey have their own perspectives and personal boundaries. I was very clear that this is not about picking on anyone. This is what I feel. Is it right or wrong? I dont know. This is the way Ive lived my life. This is how it is. This is my perception of things. Im not saying this is the right thing, she said. Why Shefali Shah chose not to share certain details in her memoir While a memoir invites readers into an authors personal world, Shefali said she did not approach the book with a fixed set of rules about what she would or would not disclose. Instead, she relied on her own comfort level when deciding which experiences to include. Asked how she determined what she would not reveal, the actor explained that the decision was straightforward. If she did not feel comfortable discussing something, she chose not to write about it. It was what doesn't work for me. I mean, there wasn't a it was just like, no, I don't want to talk about it. It's really as simple as that, she said. And that's exactly how I chose it. So there wasn't like, you know, there isn't a line as such. It is my story. I am telling it. I'm telling it as honestly as I want, she said. The actor also emphasised that honesty remained essential to the writing process. While she was comfortable leaving certain details out, she did not want to include anything that was untrue. And the thought was that if I put in something, it won't be false. That's that was primary. It can't be false. So there might be something I don't want to talk about. I won't talk about it. But it can't be false, she added. Published on October 1, 2026, The Audacity of Being: A Sort-of Memoir brings together Shefalis personal experiences and reflections.

Yash opens up about the cultural pride and global ambition behind Ramayana: We have worked with the vision that our story should be told to the world

Yash spoke about the global ambitions and cultural significance of Ramayana at the launch of the films second trailer in Bengaluru. The actor and co-producer explained that the team has approached the project with devotion and aims to introduce Indias history, heritage and culture to audiences across the world. Produced by Namit Malhotra and directed by Nitesh Tiwari, Ramayana is among the major film releases planned for 2026. The film has drawn attention with the release of its promotional material, including its teaser and trailers. The team recently gathered in Bengaluru for the launch of its second trailer, where Yash, who is backing the project through Monster Mind Creations, spoke about the vision behind the two-part epic. During the event, Yash emphasised that the team views the film as more than a conventional cinematic project. He also highlighted the role of devotion in bringing the story to the screen and explained that sharing the Indian epic with international audiences has been a central part of the team's approach. He said, Everyone has spoken about the film. You all have an idea. But I would like to say a few things. Ramayana. We have not treated it like a movie. Everyone who has come here is an artist. Everyone has got an opportunity through devotion. We have all worked with the vision that our story should be told to the world. Yash also addressed questions about the decision to present the Indian epic on an international scale. He said that while India's identity remains central to the project, it is equally important for the country to share its cultural heritage and history with a wider audience. Many people might ask, what happened? Why did you make it international? First India, right? India is important. But I think, as Indians, we all have to understand how much we respect ourselves, how much we respect our culture; at the same time, we should let the whole world know what we are made up of, what we represent, and who we truly are. What is our history? What is our culture? If someone else says it, you cannot say it. Or if we sit here and say we are good in our own way, it is of no use, Yash stated. Through his remarks, Yash underlined the importance of presenting Indian stories to a global audience while retaining their cultural roots. The makers aim to combine large-scale filmmaking, visual effects and storytelling to bring the epic to cinemas worldwide. Directed by Nitesh Tiwari, Ramayana is produced by Namit Malhotra's Prime Focus Studios in association with DNEG, which has won eight Academy Awards, and Yash's Monster Mind Creations. Planned as a two-part cinematic adaptation, the film will release worldwide in IMAX.

Sara Ali Khan calls Naani's heirloom sarees her most treasured wardrobe pieces; REVEALS last fashion purchase for mother Amrita Singh

Sara Ali Khan has often brought a distinctly individual approach to fashion, balancing traditional Indian silhouettes with a more relaxed, contemporary sensibility. In a recent conversation with Hello! India, the actor opened up about her reading habits, personal style and the wardrobe pieces that hold sentimental value for her. A history and political science graduate from Columbia University in New York, she revealed that reading remains a regular part of her routine, even during a busy cover shoot. I love Chitra Banerjee Divakarunis work. Im currently re-reading The Last Queen. I also love Elif Shafaks The Forty Rules of Love, she shared. Sara Ali Khans fashion philosophy When it comes to fashion, Sara appears to favour comfort and individuality over simply following what is trending. Asked to describe her style in three words, she chose Comfy, traditional, and unique. Her answers to a quick fashion round further highlighted the same approach. While Balenciaga is her favourite fashion brand and Manish Malhotra is the designer she can rely on, Sara has a clear preference when it comes to everyday footwear and occasion dressing. Between sneakers and heels, she picks sneakers. And when asked to choose between sarees and sequins, her answer was far more rooted in classic Indian dressing: Churidar-kurta! Sara also revealed that she has never been particularly interested in following trends. Ive never really followed trends, she said. A wardrobe with a personal connection Among the most treasured pieces in Saras wardrobe are not necessarily designer creations. She holds on to her grandmothers heirloom sarees, which were passed down to her by her mother. The most treasured items in my wardrobe? My nanis heirloom sarees that my mom gave me, she shared. The personal significance attached to these pieces appears to extend to her own fashion choices as well. When asked about her last fashion purchase, Sara revealed that it was not for herself. She bought a black leather Ralph Lauren overcoat for her mother. The outfit that makes Sara feel confident For Sara, confidence comes from an outfit that is comfortable while still retaining a strong connection to Indian craftsmanship. Her instant confidence pick is a white chikankari salwar-kameez. The choice fits into the broader style philosophy she described, one that combines comfort with traditional elements. It also sits alongside her preference for churidar-kurtas and her attachment to heirloom sarees. When it comes to celebrity style, however, Sara looks beyond understated dressing. Asked whose fashion she admires, she named Ranveer Singh. From sneakers over heels to heirloom sarees over fleeting trends, Saras answers suggest that her approach to fashion is less about following a defined rulebook and more about choosing pieces that feel comfortable, personal and distinctive.
