Anubhav Sinha: Most of the time, it's the people of Delhi that made the shooting work
Anubhav Sinha recently wrapped up an almost four-week shoot schedule in Delhi Anubhav Sinha just wrapped up an extensive shoot schedule in Delhi for his next film. In a four-week period, he covered over 20 locations in NCR and his biggest takeaway was how helpful the people of the city were and, of course, the amazing food. The director says he left the capital 2-4kgs heavier and with many warm memories. While the director shot extensively in the capital, the locations he picked were not the typical visuals you see of Delhi – the posh localities of South Delhi, the elegance of Lutyen's Delhi or the old world charm of Purani Dilli. Instead, he chose the more mundane, gritty side of the city – from Sadar Bazar and Amar Colony to Yamuna Ghat and the Ghazipur landfill. Excerpts from a chat about his experience in the city: Anubhav chose the more mundane, gritty side of the city – from Sadar Bazar and Amar Colony to Yamuna Ghat and the Ghazipur landfill 'Delhi people are such wonderful hosts' Most of the time, it's the people of Delhi that made the shooting work. It's the people. People who love films, and they see a unit of 150 people running helter-skelter to make something work which they can't see, they don't know what it is. Somewhere in the corner there is one camera and in front of it there's something going on – but for 100 meters there is chaos, there is mess, people running around with lights and properties and costumes, and so they don't know what's going on. They're a little disoriented, but they're trying to do their best to make it happen. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch vàng CFDs với sàn môi giới tin cậy IC Markets Tìm hiểu thêm Undo I loved interacting with the people of Delhi. It was great fun. The fact that everybody wants to host you, everybody that you stand and talk to would want to host you for a meal or for a cup of tea. They're such wonderful hosts. It's the Punjabi effect. Anubhav with the team in Amar Colony We shot a lot in Lajpat Nagar – Amar Colony. And we reached out to the (traders) union, we sat down with them and told them what we required and all of that. Suddenly, every shop owner was told that there's a shoot. The people were anyway helpful to begin with and then they were also offering food and inviting us home to have a cup of tea at least, if not a meal. And I was saying 'no, no, I am shooting I can't come to your house to have lunch', but then they will send something. At least tea will show up… It was great fun shooting here. It's such a wonderful city. I had such a ball. The local people are very, very, very helpful. You go to them and request, can I use your garage? Can I use your terrace? Can I use this? Can I use that? They try and go out of their way to help you. Because, you know, India is a country that's fascinated with movies and cricket. Never had such an extensive schedule in Delhi: Anubhav 'Never had such an extensive schedule in Delhi' I have never shot for 20 days in Delhi. I shot for Thappad here a bit, I shot for Anek here a bit. But never such an extensive schedule. I needed it to be in Delhi, without making you feel that this was probably shot in Meerut or Lucknow or somewhere else. So it was a really tricky shoot in the sense that you were not in those iconic places that you know at a glance as Delhi. But still, you should feel through the film that it's in Delhi. Anubhav chose to show a very different side of Delhi and picked offbeat places – from Amar Colony to the Ghazipur landfill 'I love Delhi's chhole bhature!' It's a joy to shoot in Delhi. The discussion that we have before we go to any city is about the eateries – 'What are we eating every day?' And Delhi offers so much! At every nook and corner there is some 'special' food. It doesn't matter where you are, there's always a place within a kilometer from you which is iconic and super famous. I'm convinced that I put on 2-4 kilos during these four weeks. The hotel breakfast menu always have puri sabzi or chhole bhature - I love chhole bhature so much that I hate them - because I want to have them every day (laughs)! We clicked Anubhav gorging on chhole bhature in Bengali Market back in 2016 'Delhi is the real microcosm of India' Mast shehar hai - khana, music, kapde, bahut sara bhaichara. This is the real microcosm of India. There are all the classes, adjacent to each other. So there is the real rich class, the neo rich class and the bourgeois. And then there are the slums, which is the underbelly of any metropolis. And you know they exist together and it works endlessly. Seems like the city works so seamlessly - which is not true anywhere in the world, but it seems so.

Unemployed To Business Owner: Himachal Youth Move To Beekeeping, Earn Lakhs
Hamirpur/Una: Starting his humble beekeeping vocation with a meagre Rs 1 lakh, Anubhav Sood from Una is now a proud business owner with an annual income of Rs 30 lakh. His story mirrors that of many unemployed young men across Himachal Pradesh who are embracing beekeeping under the Mukhyamantri Madhu Vikas Yojana, yielding positive results, officials said on Monday. The scheme has proven beneficial for both the unemployed and those engaged in farming and fruit cultivation, as it aids in pollination while generating additional income. Anubhav, who hails from Ambota Village, is also responsible for 10 people to whom he provides direct employment. Inspired by his mother Nisha Sood, who is associated with food processing, Anubhav took a month's training at Nauni University, Solan, followed by a week's training at the Sher-e-Kashmir Agricultural University, Katra and started beekeeping with 25 boxes. Later, he expanded his business by taking a loan of Rs 10 lakh from the Canara Bank under the Prime Minister Employment Generation Program and launched his product Pahadi Honey in the market offering varieties like Black Forest, Black Diamond, Multi Flora, Kesar, Acacia which fetch 500 to Rs 1200 per kilogram, depending on the variety. Currently, he has 300 bee boxes and produces about 10,000 kg of honey in a year. Anubhav says he migrates bees to parts of Himachal, Uttar Pradesh, Haryana and Rajasthan for honey production in different seasons and with this technique, he is producing higher quality and diverse honey varieties. The products are certified by the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India. Rs 1.60 lakh, including 50 boxes of bee species, is provided for beekeeping under the scheme besides financial assistance of Rs 10,000 for transporting bees, Deputy Director Horticulture Una K K Bhardwaj said. The department also provides an 80 per cent subsidy or financial assistance of Rs 16,000 on the purchase of beekeeping equipment, he added. The beekeeping business is also beneficial in terms of health benefits, as honey contains anti-bacterial and anti-allergic elements and its consumption increases immunity, District Ayurvedic Department Medicine specialist Dr Ashok Chaudhary said. He also noted that honey is particularly beneficial for post-Covid patients. Davinder Thakur, a resident of Neri village in Kullu district also has a story similar to that of Anubhav's. He started beekeeping five years ago and is also earning in high figures now. "Beekeeping has double benefits. It helps apple orchards by ensuring proper pollination which is essential for fruit production, he says, adding that his apple crop has also increased by 30 per cent. Thakur started with two boxes of hill bees which can even survive snowy conditions and now, he has 60 boxes producing 200 kgs of honey annually sold for Rs 2000 per kg. There are 20 to 25000 bees in one box. Gopal Kapoor (84) from Gwalpathar village in Hamirpur is another success story. Although he was not unemployed, he was in dire straits financially which made him turn to beekeeping. Earning Rs 3 to 4 lakh annually now, Gopal started with five boxes and at present has 50 boxes of Italian and Indica species. All these men are also imparting training in beekeeping to other farmers. This scheme gives youth and others as well the freedom to be self-employed, and the beekeeping training being free is another bonus, Deputy Commissioner Una Jatin Lal said.

What Miss World 2025 contestants are eating in Hyderabad
As Hyderabad, Telangana, plays host to the Miss World 2025 pageant, we cannot help but wonder: what is on the menu for the 108 contestants? Are they nibbling on salads, or trying our local idli, dosa, and vada? To find out, we visit Trident Hyderabad — the official host hotel for the 25-day event, with the final slated for May 31 — where we caught up with Sous Chef Anubhav Mathur, fresh from wrapping up a fun 'make-your-own-pizza' night with the contestants. The 108 contestants have chaperones who take care of their needs and assist them with their schedules. A total of 157 guests from the Miss World team are staying at the property. 'There's no fixed diet chart,' he says. 'We were asked to keep the food international, considering the wide range of nationalities. To make dining easier and more private, we've dedicated our Tuscany restaurant exclusively to them. The menu includes dishes from all three of our outlets — Amara is the all-day dining multi-cuisine restaurant, Kanak, serves Indian food and Tuscany is the Italian specialty restaurant.' Are Indian flavours still on the table? 'Absolutely. We've toned down the spice levels and tailored Indian dishes to suit their dietary preferences,' said Anubhav. 'They enjoy dishes like palak paneer, dals, grilled meats in malai marinade, and a range of Indian breads. On the international side, we offer a selection of meats, fish, and high-protein salads.' Some crowd-favourite salads include beetroot and feta, grilled chicken, egg salad, and sweet potato salad. Telangana's local ingredients also feature along with millet breads, low-oil vegetable stir fries with courgettes, aubergines, bell peppers and mushrooms. Cleanse juices are also asked for. Even biryani has made its way onto the menu. 'It's very mild, flavourful but without the typical heat of chilli or red chilli powder,' said Anubhav. 'They're open to trying local flavours, though mindful of carb intake.' The contestant from Wales, Millie-Mae Adams, says she was worried about her nut allergy. 'But the hotel has taken care of my food very well. They don't forget about my allergy concerns,' she said. The kitchen also accommodates vegan requirements with dishes made in light, oil-free gravies featuring millets, raw jackfruit, and sweet potatoes. 'The vegan contestants are especially curious about the ingredients and recipes,' he added. Desserts have been the most fun, and the most challenging. 'We make all our ice creams in-house, so they get to try unique flavours like rose and pistachio. We also did flourless cake one night. In our desserts, sugar is replaced with dates, and we also offer mixed nut ladoos and healthy snack bites.' From millet rotis to date-sweetened treats, the menu is a celebration of thoughtful, flavourful, and globally-minded cuisine. Hana Johns, Miss World contestant from Northern Ireland, loved the biryani 'I had the biryani for three days and I cannot get enough of it.' Miss World Contestant from Kenya, Grace Ramtu says, 'The chicken curry is my absolute favourite. My eyes light-up when I see chicken curry for any meal.' The finals of the 72nd edition of the Miss World pageant is to be held at the HITEX Exhibition Centre in Hyderabad, Telangana, India, May 31, 2025
