Twist on Tradition

This wedding season is all about bringing Indian celebrations back to their roots with an exciting, soulful twist. Here's how you can do just that.

Nostalgic Indian Maximalism

I love the richness of old-school Indian charm, so this season, it's all about going big and bold with a nostalgic twist. A good way to achieve this is by layering iconic Indian aesthetics with a modern flair. Think intricate embroidery, lush florals, and vintage vibes that feel like stepping into a dreamy past. It's maximalism, but with all the warmth of nostalgia. It's a love letter to India, woven into every petal, every hue.

A BOILING-HOT FIGHT IN MILKIPUR
India Today

A BOILING-HOT FIGHT IN MILKIPUR

The upcoming byelection in the assembly constituency of Milkipur, in Ayodhya district, carries immense significance for both the BJP and the Samajwadi Party (SP). Scheduled for February 5, it's a battle that could help shape the initial narrative for the 2027 Uttar Pradesh assembly polls. The Scheduled Caste-reserved seat fell vacant after the 2024 general election, when its veteran SP MLA Awadhesh Prasad famously fought and won the Faizabad Lok Sabha seat-under which Milkipur falls, as does Ayodhya. Coming within months of the Ram temple inauguration, that loss had dealt a bitter blow to the BJP: it was tantamount to Hindutva being humbled in its symbolic homeland. Thoughts of redemption will therefore be uppermost in the party's mind.
