Over a Cappuccino with
SIMA TAPARIA
In the age of dating apps and matrimonial sites, we have Sima Taparia, the star of Netflix’s reality show. Sima Taparia of Indian Matchmaking is India’s top matchmaker and Tulip has an up-close conversation with her about her marriage and journey. Everyone knows you as a matchmaker, could you tell us something about your marriage? How did the both of you meet? It was an arranged marriage and we have been married for 38 years now. I am from Gulbarga, Karnataka and I was just 19 years old when I was engaged, while my in-laws were from Mumbai. Our families arranged for the match via a familial acquaintance. They were from the Taparia group so they were also one of the renowned families of India. During that time how did the both of you communicate? In those days there were no mobile phones but we had telephones. However we could not talk through telephones for 6 months as there was a huge fire in Malabar Telephone Exchange. So we could only contact each other through letters. My husband used to go to the office that was in the Mumbai fort so he used to go there and talk sometimes but that was the old system of booking calls and wait for hours. 10 OCTOBER, 2021 TULIP
LIFESTYLE |
What made you become a matchmaker? Since childhood I had a unique ability to interact with people, to socialize and understand their personality. 25 years ago, I got my sister married who currently lives in Boston, I thought when I could do this and it went on smoothly then why not help the community and society, and that’ when I came into this field of matchmaking. We hear you consider yourself as a natural born matchmaker, why is that? I had all the unique qualities in me that a matchmaker needs so I consider myself as a natural born matchmaker. With the growing of matrimonial sites and dating apps has there been any effects in your path of matchmaking? Their way of working is different than mine, in my work I scan, filter and personally visit the families and do my work according to their preferences or criteria’s and then match. While matrimonial sites would just be exchanging biodatas so my way of working is completely different. As we all know Indian Matchmaking has received all kinds of responses, what do you have to say about that? Whenever a show or anything is released you always get both kinds of responses negative and positive. In my show, I got 150 memes, that shows how popular my show was and there was so much creativity, more the memes more the show is popular and I feel having negative and positive response is a healthy competition. What advice would you like to give to the young generation? The advice I would like to give is that nowadays matches are becoming really difficult the reason being that the youngsters are not able to understand what they want. They should know that if you understand the other person for even 70% then you should proceed as you will never get 100%, you will not get studies, looks, family and everything in one person. Always see the family background as the upbringing is very important, so don’t just go for money or beauty because good upbringing is going to help you in the future and you should always be able to adjust, compromise and be a little flexible in life and have a give and take relationship in your marriage. You should also remember to not have egoism in your marriage, be down to earth and compliment each other which is very important. Why do you introduce yourself as “sima Taparia from Mumbai” since when have you been using this phrase and how was your journey so far? There is no particular story behind the phrase, it is just a way to introduce myself in abroad which has become my brand and a phrase that has made me world popular. I really enjoyed my journey, I went to the US and UK. I will be going for season 2 as well now, and it’s also a very proud moment for India that our show has been nominated in Emmy’s awards. What’s the mantra for a happily ever after according to you? Compromise a little, keep ego aside, give each other love and respect.
Rapid Fire Describe yourself in 3 words Simplicity, Fond of parties and Helping nature. What are the 2 things you would put on your bucket list Going to Iceland and opening charitable Institutions What is your favourite hobby (except matchmaking) Cooking, Socialising, Helping others and Feeding people. If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be? Switzerland What other profession would you choose if not matchmaking? Haven’t thought of any Cats or dogs Cats

While getting the right clothes and getting an entirely new wardrobe comes with a hefty price on your wallet, it also has a hefty impact on the environment.

It’s the Spooky time of the year -By Ruchi Rai Sohni
Halloween is one of our favourite times of the year as we can really choose to be who we want for one night. You can go clever, creepy, cute, or glittery and pull everything off with the right makeup. Or you could create an entire Halloween look just with your make-up. We have a few makeup artists from the city giving all the Halloween vibes with their make-up while having a little fun and going a little wild.
Prarthna Jain
(Instagram: @prarthnajainmakeup) “I was inspired by the character ‘Phoenix’ from the movie X-Men, for the 2021 Halloween Looks. I created this version by covering the brows and matching the red lip with my eye makeup, looks so stunning against the blue palette. I’m obsessed with the makeup that allows my creativity to run wild and is up for my interpretation.”
Harshita
(Instagram: @harshita.88) “This I believe is one of the most beautiful makeup looks I’ve created on myself. I’ve depicted myself as a human doll that has been dismantled or broken. The eyeballs falling off the eyes, and a slit throat that has been stitched using ropes. My favourite element from the look is the broken jaw which has been stapled and put together, I believe it gives the entire look life and makes it look creepier.” 38 OCTOBER, 2021 TULIP

Ronan Mili
(Instagram: @ronan_mili) “This centaur inspired look which is a combination of an ox and a man was something I created to not come off as something too scary or nor too predictable. The look was created with the help of tissue paper mixed with glue to create the high cheekbone effect and the horns constituted of bangles and bandages.”
Shuchi
(Instagram: @makeupandhairbyshuchi) “ ‘Hey guilt, melt me away.’ This gorgeous woman is unable to suppress her guilt which is melting her away. Through this makeup, I have tried to depict the emotions keeping her beauty intact hence, making it a perfect glam Halloween look.”
Sana Mulla
(Instagram: @blenditlikesana) “The #BrokenDoll challenge swept over Instagram soon after and has created a lot of buzzes. To be a part of this challenge one has to use makeup, accessories and clothes to mimic the appearance of a young doll and an old black and white doll. A glamorous, starry makeup with some stardust pieces on the cheeks and glossy lips on the other side used prosthetic work, created texture on the skin to look aged. Depicts more of one’s feelings, which are concealed by the appearance and what they’ve gone through.”

East Asian Magic arrives to the South The rising popularity of Korean and Japanese Beauty Products Before the era of social media, K-beauty and J-beauty for Indian customers were relatively out of reach. Since then, with their enhanced accessibility in India. Vloggers and bloggers have recorded their experiences using many of these products make many aware of their benefits, contributing to their rising popularity. Korean and Japanese pop stars and movies have taken the globe by storm over the previous few years, and Korean and Japanese Beauty is the recent addition to the global trends of K-Pop J-Pop and Korean Japanese Dramas. Korean and Japanese beauty integrates natural ingredients among its primary elements, which has been seen as one of the primary elements that attract many people to use them, with their core components that are local to both Korea and Japan, such as ginseng and cherry blossoms, make them more sought-after because they differ so much from skincare and make-up that can be found at home. Student Tenzin Choden, who is a huge fan of K-beauty products narrates how she first discovered how well these products worked on her, “ Launching Korean products in India has totally been a boon to our Beauty community. I've been using The Face Shop range of rice water for over a year now for my extremely sensitive and dry skin; these products are totally pocket friendly. In the past year, I've noticed my pores enlarging way too much so I've been using the Innisfree super volcanic pore clay mask and it has definitely shrunk them. Every once in a while I add Etude House cosmetics to my collection and they're definitely worth it; not too harsh on the skin. In a nutshell, every K beauty product I've ever used has always made it worth my while and I'm pretty sure it's going to be the same for a long time “ Japanese and Korean beauty follow many of the same East Asian Beauty standards, they are very ritualistic in their beliefs giving importance to the protection of the skin as they believe that they must protect what has been passed down to them they do also share a few similar ingredients such as fermented rice water and also have revolutionized the face mask game both K beauty and J beauty are known for their glowing and youthful style, but where they may be seen to be similar in style the main difference arises with the application.

| BEAUTY Although a few products are accessible and on the low price range many products have been observed to be that of a higher price range, which could be due to their rare ingredients which showcase their exclusivity. This rising popularity has not gone unnoticed as Korean and Japanese beauty products are often plagiarized and Faked due to their high demand, so they must be purchased from authentic suppliers and stores to ensure that you are not scammed into harming yourself using fake versions that might be available in the market.
Amy Ho, a Tax Analyst uses these
products often she says “So I use a sheet mask as leisure and it’s one of the 10 steps of Korean skincare steps. I use the Innisfree sheet mask which comes in different ingredients each like Ginseng, Berry, Honey, Rice water, Tomato. As we know each of them is really good for the skin for example tomato fights with skin pigmentation, Ginseng is a medicinal remedy. Overall, I feel each ingredient has good properties and at the same time, it keeps your skin moisturised, Oh and they are like 100 rupees each. That’s the least price for them in India I guess, I don’t think you will get it for any less than that unless you are r in Korea where you can get them as free samples (laughs) I have also started getting into Shiseido products, but I have not been able to completely dive into them as they have a higher price point, but hopefully in the future will try it so see how they all work’ Hailing many benefits and uniqueness Korean and Japanese products have finally reached Hyderabad with Innisfree and Miniso we are surely many other companies will follow, and online markets such as Nykaa and Amazon it has become even more accessible to get a hold of these products, So would you try these products?

5 Lipsticks Every Indian Girl Must Have!
If there’s one thing we women hoard, it’s lipsticks. Pretty pink, 10 tubes. A nice red, one in every pantone shade please. And well, the hoarding also includes off-beat colours like orange, purple and yawn-worthy brown. And those never even see the light of the day. But today is different. We’re talking about an invisible edit button that ought to clean out your lipstick wardrobe.
And make sure you have the right stuff for every glam night, every super monday and….well, every bad hair day. Here’s our list of the five amazing lipsticks that suit every Indian skin – just right for those perfect pouts. And what’s more, they’re adventurous, classic and pretty, all rolled into one.
I am wearing “So Chaud” by MAC which is summery orange. I don’t really apply much of lip colors, but after trying shades by MAC, it gave me confidence to wear bold colors. Akanksha Agroya, Student 20 OCTOBER, may, 20142021 TULIP 46
The only brand I love in Lip Color is Bourjois, they have all the trending shades. I am wearing “Famous Fuschia” here which is shocking pink and a perfect wear for me. Fatima Khan, Amateu
The one thing that is necessary to complete a girl’s makeup is a lipstick. The relentlessly red from MAC is my favorite and I love it for the beautiful mat finish which makes me feel more beautiful and elegant. Sumrana,
This one is soft and pretty – something with a little spunk but not super bright to scare the boys away (that gender is about a 1000 years behind in terms of fashion, RIGHT?). Something thats slightly glossy so it shines as it catches the light but not over-the-top lest that first date kiss be ruined. For fair girls: MAC Ravishing is a beautiful peach For medium-toned girls: Bourjois Rouge Edition Lipstick in 1,2,3 Soleil is beautiful peachy coral For wheatish-skinned girls: MAC See Sheer is a lovely soft wash of coral to let your beautiful skin shine through

Our goal is to be one of a kind sleepwear brand in India to provide luxurious sleepwear. What services or products do you offer? We make customised sleepwear as per the measurements and specific requirements of all our clients. We also have a lot of complementary accessories such as slip-on, scrunchies and eye masks to match your PJs! What made you choose to start a company in this industry? There aren’t a lot of sleepwear brands that I came across and not any that customises sleepwear for every individual. The lockdown was an inspiration because everyone was working from home and I had the epiphany to sell pyjamas to make your work-from-home or a laid back day at home cosier and comfortable which would eventually be the right thing to begin at this point.

She has teamed up with Mohammed Shakeel Ahmed and Masood Ahmed Arif as her business partners. When did you start your business and what is your company’s mission? I started my business officially on the 8th of March, 2020. During the start, my mission was to only focus on fries based items and expand the same way. What made you choose your company's location? We chose the city centre as our location for many reasons, the topmost being it's located in the heart of the city. As we just started operating from our outlet we are only dealing with shawarma and fries for a week but in the coming month, all the items on the menu will be available which include all authentic Mediterranean & Arabian dishes. We also take even orders. What are your company’s goals? My long term company goals would be to expand all over Hyderabad and India.

Soumya Sree
, Student One of my favourite getaway places from Hyderabad is in the Ananthagiri hills. The entire journey to the place is beautified with nature and it's the closest we can get to mother nature near our city. The best part about it is that there is a hidden waterfall over there and it's ideal for camping.
Pragnya
, Student I love the winters and being a snowflake fanatic, hill stations have my heart. Horsley Hills or Horsley Konda is a series of hills located near the southwestern border between Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka, 520 km from Hyderabad. It is often called the ‘Ooty of Andhra’. This hill station is located at a height of 4312 metres and has breathtaking landscapes around Gangotri and Mansarovar Lakes. This place tops the list and will always remain a classic for me!
Unnsh
, Student I find myself visiting places away from the asphalt jungle. One of my favourite getaways has to be the drive to the famous Medak Cathedrals which is approximately 100 kilometres from the city. The ramble towards the church is perpetually filled with classic locals in the background, eating homemade refreshments and snacks. The Medak Cathedral is the most widespread diocese in India, the single largest diocese in Asia and the second-largest diocese in the world. The masses on Sundays are spent with prayers, singing of hymns, reading scripts; psalms and verses. I have spent hours watching the astonishing architecture of the Medak Cathedral. This kirk in particular reminds me of my late grandma and the fact itself makes it my favourite absconds away from the chaos of life.
Mithravinda Reddy
, Student I am extremely fond of travelling but with covid, I wasn't able to explore as much until I discovered the hidden gems my city withholds. My favourite getaway place from Hyderabad would be the Rachakonda fort. Being a history buzz, places that remind me of ancestral art inspire me and make me feel motivated and refreshed. The beautiful trek at this place is nothing less than an adventure. This place is everything i'd want for a relaxing and refreshing weekend.
Anirudh. G
, Student With the lockdown situation, a getaway from the city is something we all need. One of my all-time favourites is Mallela Theertham Waterfalls. It is quite a drive from the city but it's worth the journey. The nature and the sanity you find at that place is beyond words. I feel the closest to nature and feel rejuvenated every time I visit that place. The very essence of getting away from the pollution packed city reminds me of this one place I'd want to go!

Professional Advice
Varshitha
, Painting student Apart from being a painting student I am also a freelancer and have worked with a couple of interior designers for wall paintings/murals I believe the aura of art adds more beauty and peace to the surroundings, that's the reason a lot of people love going to cafes that have pretty interiors. Investing in art for your home directly or indirectly means investing for your well being as art has the power to set your heart at peace. There are a million ways to decor your home with/without wall painting. Right now in the market, there are too many options like stickering, artefacts etc. But the right way to choose what's best for your indoors is colouring and no colours are meant to spread a peaceful aura. Make sure you first refer to the colour chart, for example, if your wall is all painted with blue shades, you can go for white, bronze, light grey or gold decor items that look elegant and don't mess up your theme. If someone wants to make their wall painting though they are an artist, Tape painting Hack is super easy to deal with. But as an art student, I would suggest the audience always go for professional advice before jumping to conclusions.
Varsha Prabhu
, Architect All the built spaces we live in have one thing in common - Walls! From residential spaces to commercial spaces to institutions and government buildings - walls are almost always taken for granted. Like an artist uses the canvas to create meaningful art, walls are the most accessible canvas for any individual to personalise their space. Each of us must take time to ponder over it and enhance the walls in the spaces that we inhabit. Common wall decor ideas you come across are making accent walls, framing art, creating gallery walls, decorative mirrors, hanging plates, textured paint, etc. Enhance your walls by creating something dynamic, something you can build over time. Some ideas you can consider to enliven your walls are. Wallpaper! The plethora of prints and customisations available with this form of wall covering is mindboggling. This is also one of the quickest ways to enhance walls. Travel souvenirs - From art to framed pictures to hats, you can use anything to highlight one wall in a room. Doing this in the living room makes for great conversation starters when you have visitors. Quirky wall lights - These are also known as sconces. The sculptural aesthetic with the soft lighting enhances your walls. Neon signs/lights - best way to add ambient light with your name or a favourite quote. Panelling - walls can be panelled in multiple materials. From wood to fabric to natural stone, the limit is only in your imagination. Vertical gardens - adding natural greenery into your space adds aesthetics as well as purifies the air to create a calming atmosphere. Decals - simple, cost-effective and easy to install on most surfaces. As I said, use your walls as a canvas and go wild with creativity. A weekend family activity could be to paint a wall together as well.
Prachi Singla
, Aspiring CS. Life gets better when you do small things with great love” Blank walls can be designed in numerous ways. I’d love to use Buddha statues and Buddha art as it is a representation of tranquillity and calmness. They add the right charm and bring in abundance making it the perfect setting and a vibrant plush. There is a wide range to opt from right from Nirvana Buddha Meditating Buddha, Laughing Buddha to decal paintings one can choose as per the Vastu and their preferences.

FITNESS WITH MINASH GABRIEL Minash Gabriel is a Doctor of Physiotherapy, Osteopathic Manual Therapist, a rehabilitation and performance coach. He was a former athlete who played professional cricket at various levels. Plagued with injuries on his right knee forced him to hang up his boots and give up the sport, but he decided to study physiotherapy to help people keep injuries at bay and live a pain-free life.
Tell us about your training philosophy? I keep it simple: Movement is medicine. The body must move in ways in which it is challenged every day. If you’re not challenging your body to move in multiple planes of motion, metabolic diseases like obesity and type-2 diabetes cannot be checked. What's your favourite workout? I love full-body compound movements. Deadlifts and kettlebell workouts are my favourites. Describe your experience in the fitness industry? The fitness and rehab setting in India is growing rapidly. This growth requires specialists to step in and handle multiple areas of well-being. Be it precision movement at the gym along with rehabilitation, or women’s health and geriatric wellness, everybody's needs are different. This is why, I believe, specialisation is key. This lack of specialised care — the gap I am here to bridge — only leaves a large part of the population in pain, or worse, disabled. This leads to increased cardio-respiratory, musculoskeletal, and neuro-vascular ill health. How did Myo Movement come to life? Myo Movement came to life because of the misfortunes in my sporting life. If I had the right attention and infrastructure, who knows where I could have been today. With my trajectory at the time, I was sure I was on my way to represent my country. Myo Movement is my attempt to fill the void that exists in the physical health care system. As a therapist, it is my responsibility to make sure that I look into pain empathetically, with a sound mind backed by evidence, rationale, and critical thinking. It is my responsibility to help individuals in pain move better and make better choices. How do you keep clients motivated and engaged? I give them simple instructions and try not to complicate things. I make sure there is variety in every workout and I get them to do the things that they like with the exercises, which are also good for their overall health. It’s a two-way street, so for the process to be sustainable, it must take into consideration the individual's likes and needs. What are the professional goals you wish to achieve next? My goal is to bring about movement literacy with every individual that I teach or train. If we can build a community that is moving better, we enable people to live their fullest lives. And as they say, people don’t stop playing because they get old, people get old because they stop playing.

WelcomHotel Shimla, 14 km uphill from the busy town of Shimla, the leisure property is nestled amidst the Mashobra valley, surrounded by the picturesque view, serene vibe and an absolute dream for anyone who wants to be surrounded by nature. It is worth mentioning how the hotel is determined to keep the customer’s health as their priority. All the staff members were wearing masks throughout our stay here, and the rooms were cleaned thoroughly and regularly along with regular sanitization measures.
Rooms:
the rooms at first felt quite compact but 2 things that helped me overlook it was – the view- both from my balcony and from the bed. I spent hours watching the breathtaking night sky glistening with stars and also enjoyed the beautiful mornings with the soothing valley view. Second, was the fact that the room is designed in an L shape format that gives absolute privacy -doesn’t give away the look of an entire room to someone at the door. Facilitated with all modern amenities fit for a comfortable stay, my experience overall was a comfortable one. ITC has consciously been one of the hospitality brands that is mindful of its resources and encourage sustainability. From eco-friendly packaging of essentials, wood combs and toothbrushes to glass bottles in restaurants. Not to forget the current We Assure initiative that encourages the safety of all guests, from temperature check on arrival, sanitization of luggage, hands and shoes. Not only that but the rooms are freshly sanitized, cutlery wrapped, so it touches only your hands while eating.
Food:
WelcomCafe Cedar is an all-day dining restaurant that offers continental, Indian, and seasonal specialities from the region all accessible to you by QR code. My favourite meal however was the dinner arranged in their Sunset Garden with a bonfire keeping us warm under the starry sky where we were served Himachali Dham – an assortment of popular regional dishes that come laid out in a single thali. The ingredients were seasonal and locally sourced, supporting the farming community of the neighbourhood. Perfect for a leisurely family getaway in the lap of snowcapped mountains, the hotel has indoor and outdoor activities like chess, kids’ play corner and guided local tours. The outdoor activities include cycling, short treks, bird watching and archery
Must try:
The outdoor picnic by the brilliant team at WelcomHotel Shimla was curated keeping our interests and food preferences in mind. A short drive from the property, a downhill stone path, lead us to a beautiful opening in the forest. The space was set up with a tent for seating, a recliner, a hammock, games that included- badminton space with net, dartboard on the tree, board games, speaker for music- food options like pizza from the hotel, freshly cooked Maggi, barbecued tikkas, tea/coffee or chilled soft drinks it was all there along with two members of the staff, who are instantly there when you need something as small as tissue but will merge in the background without making their presence felt, giving you utmost privacy.

TAROT | Aries
Taurus
Putting in the effort to make your partnerships work will pay off this month and could bring new heights to your relationships that you didn’t expect. As you step up and take the lead in your personal life, you could see your relationships getting more serious.

Cancer
Leo
You may be coming to a final decision concerning your work and public life, which will allow you to close chapters and refocus your energy on your home and family. Pinpoint what makes life worth living for you and make that your priority.

Libra
Scorpio

Taking time to focus on your mental health and deepest needs this month will transform how you show up for yourself and others. The hardest part about this subconscious transformation will be integrating these changes into your everyday life.
