Eid Mubarak to you all. The month of Ramadan is special for Muslims throughout the world, as they fast and pray, and Eid al-Fitr marks the end
of Ramzan. It’s a time for contemplation, spirituality, peace, and brotherhood.
Moreover, the month of Ramadan is a period of charity, giving to those less

to find out what they had planned for Eid this year. Some have
even given us a peek into their lives, so we can share their joy as
they celebrate the festive occasion!
I believe this issue’s cover captures the colours and festive spirit
of Eid, too. Dressed in exquisite clothes and jewellery, we have
entrepreneur Manzoor Alam Khan gracing our cover with wife
Samia; and their children Sanya and Aftab Alam Khan. To
find out more about the Alam Khans and how they celebrate
the special occasion with family, food, and a strong sense of
community, check out our Cover Story.
In our People in Focus, we have Sakshi Sharma, a familiar face
on Indian television. She has worked in I Don’t Love You, Wiped
Out, and an untitled Telugu movie. A talented small screen actress
and a creative model, she has a Telugu release coming up, and
spills the beans on her experiences so far as well as her plans.
Don’t miss our Mind & Body this week if you’re fasting – you’ll
see some very handy tips for making sure you fast the healthy
way! Last but not least, Grand Getaways gives a romantic
whirlwind account of Trishala Kamath and her boyfriend’s tour of
Rajasthan.
