The Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanms has resolved to celebrate Mana Gudi in both the Telugu States during the month. As part of the programme aimed at inculcating moral and traditional values among the masses, particularly the youth, and encourage them play an active role in restoring the lost glory of the temples, the TTD has decided to organise Varalakshmi Vratam on August 20, Sravana Pournami (August 22) and Sri Krishna Janmastami on August 30 at all the identified temples at various district headquarters in both the States by adhering to COVID-19 guidelines.
In a country where every new skincare launch promises to be cleaner, greener, and more “traditional” than the last one, it is fair to wonder whether India needs anyother brand championing native ingredients? For Deepika Nagasamy, who recently launched her skincare brand Dipsy, the answer did not come from trend forecasts or branding decks. It came from something more personal — a childhood nickname, and an everyday kitchen conversation. Having been part of the legendary Dindigul Thalapakatti food empire, a Tamil Nadu-born biriyani brand with outlets in India and abroad (explain what this is in 20-30 words?), Deepika has always understood the power of ingredients grown on home soil. “Ingredients and food that’s native to the soil we live in are something I knew very well,” she says. “So I wondered, why can’t I do this with skincare?”
