Off the Grid
Twenty years ago, on an ordinary holiday, Anuja Joshi wandered into a Dutch flower auction and never quite got over it. Everything since has been an attempt to bring that feeling home. Along the way, almost without meaning to, she built the closest thing India has to a luxury flower category. Rajeev Mokashi, co-founder of TheGlitzMedia, sat down with her to find out what that actually took.
VEC Queen of India returns for its third season in black and gold, open to every Indian woman regardless of size, shade, or marital status.

From the recent brouhaha over Converse’s controversial imagery to GIVA’s Raksha Bandhan backlash, fashion advertising seems increasingly addicted to the 'outrage' button. But I have a question: when did “provocation without thought” become an excuse for an ad?
Ramp & Closet
Fashion loves a good plot twist, and lace is having a deliciously dramatic moment. At the India launch of the Elie Saab x H&M limited-edition collection, actresses Tamannaah Bhatia and Mahieka Sharma offered two distinct interpretations of feminine glamour, proving that when couture sensibilities meet high-street fashion, the results can be deliciously chic.
In the world of luxury, time is never just about ticking seconds; it’s about making every second a statement. From exquisitely crafted classics to bold, contemporary showstoppers, luxury watches are the ultimate expression of personal style, precision and prestige. After all, anyone can tell the time, but it takes a connoisseur to wear it with panache.
Fashion has a delicious habit of raiding its own archives, and when it comes to the early 2000s, few labels have a nostalgia quotient quite like Juicy Couture. Think plush velour tracksuits, glittering logos, cheeky slogans and a certain celebrity-off-duty aesthetic that made casual dressing feel gloriously extra. Now, the Los Angeles-born label is turning up the Y2K dial in India with its Fall/Winter ’26 collection, unveiled by actor Disha Patani at Mumbai’s Mercii.
Reviews
When Veil of Veda sent TheGlitz its Glow Drops 2-in-1 Serum Primer and Lip Veil in Hibiscus Blush for review, the first impression was distinctly pleasing. Naturally, we had to put them to the test — because a beauty product can promise all the glow in the world, but it’s the experience on your skin that really counts. TheGlitz Reviews...
Kass recently sent TheGlitz a beautifully curated skincare hamper, accompanied by a warm, handwritten note... the kind of personal touch that immediately makes a beauty delivery feel less like a package and more like a thoughtful invitation to slow down and indulge in some serious skin time.
Inside were four products from Kass: Oil Cleanse Face Wash, Lucent Reveal Serum, Barrier Fortify Moisturizer and Nourishing Sleep Masque.
The festive season is only just opening its doors, and Chupps arrives with a pair worth pausing for. The Haven Sliders in Coffee wrap the foot in cushion, photograph beautifully, and are made to return gently to the earth. TheGlitz reviews.
Show Time
If Bollywood were a dinner party, Ranbir Kapoor would arrive looking effortlessly expensive, Saif Ali Khan would bring aristocratic swagger, Salman Khan would hijack the conversation, and Shah Rukh Khan would probably own the venue.
He was a shy child who ran from fans and dreamed of the Air Force. Four decades later, Ajinkya Deo is among Marathi cinema’s most loved faces, and about to be seen as a sage and a senior police officer. In conversation with Rajeev Mokashi. Read on.
“I am a Rockstar, baby!” And just like that, Qazi Touqeer has become the human equivalent of a 'breaking-news' alert inside the Bigg Boss 20 house. Love him, mock him or question his theatrics, but ignore him? That seems to be the one thing his fellow contestants simply cannot do... nor can the celebs visiting the show - all of them insist he is their favourite - or the audience... the Qazi fever across the nation is real. TheGlitz finds out more...

Solo travel, as I see it, is the ultimate act of liberation. But between Instagram-perfect sunsets and the reality of navigating an unfamiliar world alone, there is a more complicated story. The question isn't whether we should travel solo. It's whether the travel industry, our destinations and society are doing enough to make that freedom genuinely safe.
From snow-dusted peaks to helicopter rides and a possible work session with a spectacular view, Samay Raina's Swiss sojourn seems to be equal parts escape and content creation. TheGlitz takes a closer look at Samay Raina’s scenic Swiss itinerary.
But what if the next great journey did something radically simpler? What if you went on a travel somewhere not to conquer a destination, but to pursue one fascination obsessively? One dish. One designer. One garden. One castle. One television series. One story. Your own One-Obsession Trip!
