'Princess of Jaipur' Gauravi Kumari brings royal glam to Teej in a traditional green poshak
Teej, the monsoon festival of love, swings, and all things green was celebrated recently and let's just say, Princess Gauravi Kumari of Jaipur served a royal slay. The young royal celebrated Hariyali Teej with her family at the City Palace, and on July 28, she gave us a peek into the festivities with a stunning photo dump on Instagram.
The caption was simple, 'Teej 💚' but the look? Anything but.
Dressed in a deep green Rajputi poshak, Gauravi channelled regal elegance with a modern, heartwarming vibe. Her outfit was a gorgeous tribute to Rajasthani tradition, leheria-inspired, of course with a richly embellished choli, a sweeping ghaghra, and a dupatta worn the traditional way, gracefully covering her head and shoulders. The embroidery was intricate but not overdone, think golden gota patti, delicate sequins, and tasselled borders that caught the light just right.
Jewellery? As dreamy as you'd expect. Gauravi paired the ensemble with heirloom-style gold and emerald pieces, including a classic maang tika, a choker, jhumkis, and stacks of green bangles that subtly echoed the festival's colour theme.
Hair and makeup were effortlessly on-point. With her hair parted down the centre and tied back neatly, the look gave her an almost poetic aura. Her glam was soft and glowy - kohl-lined eyes, fluttery lashes, flushed cheeks, and a berry-toned pout.

Just enough to say festive, but not loud enough to overshadow the beauty of the outfit.
And while the poshak stole the spotlight, the setting added its own magic. Think: vintage palace arches, marigold decor, and that unmistakable royal Jaipur vibe. Teej at the City Palace isn't just a festival, it's a visual experience. And Gauravi? She's the style muse we didn't know we needed this monsoon.
One thing's for sure, this is how you do festive dressing with legacy, charm, and a whole lot of grace.

No permit, No performance: Church Street's impromptu gigs a thing of the past?
Church Street in Bengaluru has long been a hub of spontaneous cultural energy and impromptu street performances. However, with the recent detention of international performers and growing restrictions on unsanctioned gigs, the city's approach to public performances seems to be shifting. It's not without reason. As authorities take a harder look at crowd control and safety in public spaces, the question remains: can Bengaluru's most iconic street still be a space for free expression — or is the era of impromptu performances a thing of the past? What happened? Last week, German influencer Younes Zarou was briefly detained by Bengaluru police for filming a dance video on Church Street that drew a crowd. This incident wasn't isolated. It comes after another German TikToker, Noel Robinson, was detained days prior for holding a similar street performance. Earlier this year, even global pop icon Ed Sheeran had his surprise Church Street set cut short. Church Street off limits to street performers? Though Ed claimed he had approval, police denied it, citing the absence of clearance for using a microphone, security arrangements, and police approval. The incident occurred amid ongoing enforcement on Church Street, which last year, saw police evict street vendors and advise buskers against performing, Deepak Batavia explains. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Pierce Brosnan's Wife Lost 120 Pounds - This Is Her Now Undo He adds, 'Church Street is a vibrant area, but it's also a 715-metre road. Because it's so narrow, one unexpected crowd can quickly become a safety hazard. ' Curbs imposed amid residential concerns According to Deepak Batavia, President of the Church Street Association, the curbs on performances on Church Street stem from residential grievances and safety concerns. 'We've had a lot of incidents; hospitals in the area faced significant trouble, residents' privacy was completely compromised, there were even fights. The street would be totally jam-packed. A court order was thus issued, and we have to abide by it,' he said, underscoring the police's legitimate crowd control concerns, a critical issue for Bengaluru, particularly after incidents like the RCB stampede. Church Street is a vibrant area, but it's also a 715-metre road. Because it's so narrow, one unexpected crowd can quickly become a safety hazard – Deepak Batavia, President of the Church Street Association We need better public spaces for artistes, musicians: City strategist Urban strategist Vinod Jacob believes the crackdown on gigs points to a larger issue — Bengaluru's lack of open, accessible performance spaces. He said, 'The need for public stages for artistes, musicians and painters is a must. In the past, dedicated venues regularly hosted gigs and live shows by freelance artistes. We also had playgrounds with built-in stages for public performances that didn't disturb anyone. We truly need more public spaces where artistes can perform freely. As a heritage and cultural capital of India, Bengaluru's traditional classical artistes also require these spaces to showcase their art. However, blocking traffic and performing on roads is unwarranted and not advisable.' What about Church Street's buskers? It isn't only international creators; local performers have faced pushback too. Neil Newton, an artiste and beatboxer who used to perform on Church Street, explains that he stopped busking following an encounter with the police. 'Unfortunately, under Indian law, busking falls under public nuisance. I remember an incident when a cop approached us while we were performing — we were a group of four and we'd just randomly started performing. The cop threatened to take us to the station if we didn't clear out in 30 seconds. That was the last time I busked. Busking was something I did for fun - I didn't want to cause any trouble,' he says, and notes, 'Today, Church Street has also became too chaotic and crowded, it's easy for things to get out of hand.'

Stephen A Smith blasts Michelle Obama over ESPN drama jab and offensive Donald Trump claim
Stephen A Smith blasts Michelle Obama over ESPN drama jab and offensive Trump claim (Image Via X) On August 2 and 3, 2025, a heated exchange unfolded between ESPN star Stephen A. Smith and former First Lady Michelle Obama . The clash began when Michelle Obama, on her 'IMO' podcast, compared ESPN comment shows especially featuring Stephen A. Smith to The Real Housewives of Atlanta. In response, Stephen A. Smith pushed back sharply on his YouTube show, calling her 2024 campaign remarks 'offensive' and saying he took them personally. What followed is a clash of perspectives blending sports, politics and media culture. Michelle Obama's ESPN comparison draws fire On August 1, 2025, during an episode of her 'IMO with Michelle Obama & Craig Robinson' podcast, Michelle Obama likened watching ESPN even shows like First Take to reality TV. She said: 'If I listen to ESPN for an hour, it's like watching The Real Housewives of Atlanta. It's the same drama… they're yelling at each other… Stephen A. Smith… he's just like every other talk show host.' She described the network's debates as sociological drama, full of constant tension and conflict. Also Read: "He's Not Their Media Puppet": Michelle Obama's Blunt Take On Stephen A. Smith Sparks A Heated Debate Among Fans Stephen A. Smith's response to Michelle Obama On August 2–3, 2025, Stephen A. Smith answered on his own show. He began by expressing respect: 'Michelle Obama… you are revered by me personally… but I'm still a bit salty at you.' He criticised her campaign claim that 'a vote for Trump was a vote against women,' stating he found that message emotionally manipulative and offensive. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Mountain Gear for Extreme Conditions Trek Kit India Learn More Undo He emphasised that voters decide based on many issues like economy, security, immigration, safety, long before considering identity politics. Smith also challenged her reality‑TV comparison of ESPN. He argued that sports commentary is live, competitive, authentic entertainment and not scripted reality TV. 'You are so wrong about that assertion,' he said, defending ESPN's value. Despite disagreement, Smith lauded her: he said Obama was 'sensational' and suggested she or Barack Obama would beat Donald Trump in a presidential run. Yet he reaffirmed that he 'won't say a negative word' about her personally. This dispute highlights the intersection of sports media criticism and political tension. With Michelle Obama's viral podcast comments and Stephen A. Smith's candid rebuttal, both delivered on different platforms and dates, the back‑and‑forth reflects deep cultural divides over identity, political messaging, and media presentation.
