You And I Magazine Cover OCT 2020

Call it what you want: an excuse for feasting and #dancing or a fondness for #celebrating the victory of good over evil. We #Indians love our #festivals. And one of the most popular festivals, #Dussehra or #Vijayadashmi, brings all these aspects together elegantly and magically. While the #festival is only a few days away, but for some people in the city, the #festivities started much earlier. Turn to our Feature Story, which commemorates the festival with an extensive look at some well-known families and their plans during the current times. A Happy, joyful and prosperous Dussehra to all! In that spirit, we’ve been asking ladies around the city what their favourite Dussehra and #Navratri #foods and #traditions are. In this week’s Special Feature, we take you inside the homes of these ladies who love #cooking for their loved ones. And on the cover, we have the elegant Niharika Konidela in her #ethnic splendour. Always making heads turn with her striking features, this stunner nails every look she goes for – #Western or Indian. Check out the #Cover Story to find out more about her life! Head to the People page to find out what Pooja Upadhyay, is up to these days. After working in her brother’s #aviation company, Pooja is all set to start her #fashion label. Overindulgence in sweets can lead to a lot of health drawbacks. Excessive #sugar #calories can push one back on their diet/fitness regimen by adding empty calories, in the current situation, maintaining one’s general #fitness is of utmost priority. At the same time, one cannot forego sweets entirely as festive celebrations would be dull without them. In Mind & Body, we talk about four ways to consume your sweets this festival season smartly. Lastly, do check our Grand Getaways where we show why #France is the hottest #travel destination for nature, art and food lovers. 📕 On the cover: @NiharikaKonidela 🥻Outfits: @AshwiniReddyofficial and @varunchakkilam Styled by @officialanahita 💎 Jewellery: @mangatrai_panjagutta 💄 Makeup and hair: @sandysartistry 📸 Photo: @shreyansdungarwal
