When the shimmering spotlight of Dharma Productions... once practically engraved with “Reserved for Ananya Panday”, suddenly swivels toward a new face like Aneet Padda, you can bet Bollywood’s gossip blender goes into overdrive. After all, Ananya has long been the chosen one of the Karan Johar galaxy (yes, that KJo, patron saint of pouty debuts and designer heartbreaks). But now, with Aneet — the surprise breakout star of 2025 — sashaying into the Dharma halo, it looks like Ananya’s designer heels might be wobbling just a little.

The Basileio is a premium vegetarian restaurant that promises “regal, fine dining Greek-inspired indulgence.” This stunningly 'instagrammable' place is a Hellenic haven... ornate interiors, statues of Greek Gods, and golden-gilded portraits that could make even Aphrodite pause for a selfie.

This Spooky October, TheGlitz invites you to swap trick-or-treat candy for something far more fabulous — a frightfully fun cocktail feast by the F&B magicians at Deltin, who are brewing up a Halloween spread that’s equal parts eerie and elegant.

At Candice's, a Banh Mi with tofu tasted better than it had at any of my previous jaunts, while Thai salad proved healthy food doesn't have to be boring. Over at Shiro, sushi arrived looking like art and tasting like the decade of experience behind it. One place let me show up in whatever I was wearing. The other deserved a dress code written in its towering Buddha and polished floors. Both knew exactly what they were doing.
