About this issue
Summer Special Jacqueline Fernandez hops and pops in spring’s colours in Verve’s April issue – indulging in a candid chat, letting her inhibitions down. Randeep Hooda opens up about his ideologies that are far from what we see in Highway. And then we have Nimrat Kaur, Neha Dhupia, Tarun Tahiliani, Gul Panang and Anuja Chauhan support our social chronicle about how growing up with army fathers makes children resilient to the world. The fiction pages hold an extract from Sujata Massey’s latest literary offering about fighting nature and destiny. Next we have Chanel speaking about the making of its very magnificent dress. Verve also dips into its own cupboards to help pack perfectly for a holiday worth spoiling for in its fashion spreads. Artist Brinda Miller opens her home, which tells tales about her travels around the world. Her architect husband Alfaz Miller shares his bits about what makes this house so quaint. Mandira Bedi picks out a recent family getaway to Singapore from her holiday album. Vietnam and Beijing cover the rest of the travel pages with plenty on sights and tastes. Three photographers who have made their way around northeast India, beautifully capture the purity in the land. And finally the new hotels picked by Verve offer luxury for a restful sojourn. The regular sections include art picks, a photography exhibition by the veteran Pablo Bartholomew, a fresh view on Highway and Queen, style trends and picks, and plenty beauty tips.
