On our cover this month is Karan Johar, one of the pillars of Hindi cinema and a man with a mind of his own. While he may be sitting at the heart of Bollywood, embodying every quality that defines the industry, the man has effectively changed the landscape of Hindi cinema, without taking himself too seriously. We also have a Shirt Special, a comprehensive guide on buying a great shirt, styling it, as well as some pointers on pulling off printed shirts. In addition, there are some great reads on how Instagram has transformed the men’s fitness industry, custom-made holidays in Oman for the well-heeled traveller, the best health resorts in India, and more.
