We issue this retraction notice to acknowledge an oversight in the advertisement published in our newspaper for Big Box Outlet Store.

It has come to our attention that an advertisement for Big Box Outlet Store's sale in July was supposed to be published in our newspaper. However, due to an internal oversight, we failed to publish the correct and updated advertisement as requested.

Instead, an outdated advertisement, which was the same one

published in May for their sale between May 17-23, 2023, was mistakenly run again.

To rectify the situation, we have taken immediate action and published the correct and updated advertisement for Big Box Outlet Store's sale in July on our e-newspaper, and are republishing it in this week's issue as seen above.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Sixty-eight organizations receive grants to help shape anti-racism legislation

Racialized people can now share their perspectives in culturally safe spaces as 68 organizations across B.C. receive more than $300,000 to engage community members on the development of new anti-racism legislation.

“Too many people in B.C. experience systemic racism every day,” said Mable Elmore, Parliamentary Secretary for Anti-Racism Initiatives.

“Part of how we will become an antiracist society is by centring the lived experiences of those who have been marginalized by the harms of racism when we try to address it. These grants will give front-line organizations the opportunity to amplify the voices of the communities that will be most affected by our new anti-racism legislation.”

More than 100 organizations from across B.C. applied for grants and 68 applications have been approved. The maximum grant amount is $5,000 and government has allocated $308,000 to be divided between the successful organizations. Engagements will run between July and the end of September 2023.

The grant recipient organizations provide anti-racism awareness and education, resilience training for those who have experienced racism, and social services and supports for newcomers, as well as promoting diversity through arts and culture.

Government is asking for input from members of racialized communities, as well as racialized people from faith-based and 2SLGTBQIA+ communities, to ensure upcoming anti-racism legislation will make a meaningful difference in people’s lives. Local community-led engagement sessions will be culturally appropriate, safe and responsive to the needs of each community.

“This grant will be a catalyst for positive change within the Black community,” said Brian Seremba of the BC Community Alliance. “It will help us create safe spaces for open dialogue, amplify Black voices and foster a more inclusive and equitable future for our community.”

“Our community-led engagement celebrates Deaf culture and American sign language (ASL), fostering inclusivity and dialogue,” said Vinu Abraham Chetipurackal of the Greater Vancouver Association of the Deaf. “With a secondary intersection of being Deaf, we look forward to the opportunity to acknowledge the diversity in the Deaf and hard-ofhearing community and to helping make sure their perspectives are heard and respected.”

The Anti-Racism Act, which will be introduced in 2024, is being codeveloped with Indigenous Peoples and government has separately provided over $450,000 to First Nations and Métis partners to facilitate the distinctions-based co-development process.

All British Columbians are invited to share how they think government should address systemic racism by completing the anti-racism questionnaire by Sept. 30, 2023. It is available online in 15 languages.

B.C. helps remove barriers for people with disabilities

People with temporary and permanent disabilities, and seniors, and parents with strollers will benefit from accessibility improvements supported by $5 million in provincial funding to Rick Hansen Foundation.

“We all want people to live dignified lives and fully participate in their communities,” said Sheila Malcolmson, Minister of Social Development and Poverty Reduction. “That’s why we’re providing funding to the Rick Hansen Foundation to help municipalities expand accessibility.”

The Province is providing $5 million to support municipalities and Indigenous communities improve accessibility for people of all abilities. The funding will expand the Rick Hansen Foundation BC Accessibility Grants Program and will be used to evaluate accessibility of facilities, upgrade three selected sites and train municipal staff on accessibility.

These grants will help 15 communities improve accessibility, including:

eight municipalities the Rick Hansen Foundation is already working with: Coquitlam, Kamloops, Kelowna, Nanaimo, Port Moody, Prince George, Richmond and Whistler;

two Indigenous communities to be selected; and

five more municipalities the foundation will start the selection process for.

The funding will also help British Columbia become more accessible by supporting organizations through expanded accessibility training, the development of digital tools, the Accessibility Professional Network annual conference, engagement and awareness campaigns, and new accessibility research.

“Thank you to the Government of B.C. for your leadership and com-

mitment to removing accessibility barriers for British Columbians with disabilities and their friends and loved ones,” said Rick Hansen, founder of the Rick Hansen Foundation. “Ensuring our communities are accessible to people of all ages and abilities is

critical to an equitable and inclusive society.”

Through accessibility laws, supports, programs and services, B.C. is working to remove barriers so people with disabilities can equitably participate in their communities.

The Patrika Auto Review: 2023

The2023 CX-30 is a compact CUV offering from Mazda that slots in between the CX-3 and CX-5. Frontengined with as standard All-Wheel Drive. The CX-30 with its five- door format adopts Mazda’s Kodo design language and is a graceful, lithelooking vehicle. The CX-30 with a host of standard features, and a choice

base CX-30 GX come with a 2.0-liter 155-horse power four-cylinder unit under the hood. The GS or GT version adds a 2.5-liter 186-horsepower engine. Meanwhile the CX-30 GT Turbo arrives with 250 horsepower unit. A six-speed transmission is standard. Models start with the GX: $27,050, GS: $30,350, GT $36,550

Workers Wanted: Welder & General helper good wages, must speak English, knowledge of Punjabi will be an asset

of either normal or Turbo 4 -cylinder engine. For 2023, the Mazda CX-30’s non-turbo Skyactiv-G 2.5L engine with 5 extra horsepower and slightly lower combined fuel economy rating.

Depending on your CX-30 trim, there are three Mazda Skyactiv different engines available to choose. The

and the GT Turbo at $38,950 plus options, destination, and taxes. Note that all CX-30 Models arrive with iActive AWD as standard issue which is an excellent addition o n Mazda’s part.

Our 2023 GT Turbo AWD version (base priced at $38,550) came with standard equipment featuring: SKY-

ACTIV-G 2.5L engine with Dynamic pressure turbo,, SKYACTIV-Drive

6-speed automatic transmission with manual shift mode and Drive Selection switch, and paddle shifters. There is also: G-Vectoring Control Plus, 18-inch gunmetal alloy wheels, push button start, Mazda Connect with 8.8-inch display. As standard is the HMI commander, rear-view camera, power moonroof, heated front seats, heated steering wheel, leathertrimmed upholstery, 10-way power driver seat (includes power lumbar support), and full LED exterior lighting. Also added was navigation system, Bose Audio system with 12 speakers, automatic climate controls, advanced keyless entry, and a power liftgate.

Comprehensive safety features on the GT Turbo included: Mazda Radar Cruise Control with Stop & Go, Pedestrian Detection, High Beam Control, Forward Obstruction Warning, Smart City Brake Support, Smart Brake Support, Smart Brake Support Rear, Smart Brake Support Rear-Crossing, rear parking sensors, colour windshield-projected Active Driving Display.

The interior layout is as usual typical Mazda with its sports orientated neat, uncluttered design. There is a nice sporty gauge cluster and the dash is a of a multi-tier two tone design with a contrasting trim that looks very cool. Slivers of brushed aluminum trim pieces add a very upmarket feel. I also liked the use of supple leather type material instead of hard plastics used in the cabin doors, dash, and center armrest. The front seat are well designed with just the right amount of cushioning. Mazda has an updated version of its infotainment system, using a high resolution 8.8inch screen with Apple CarPlay and Android.

Rear seating position is excellent as well with good headroom. However, legroom for adult passengers is a bit tight. Cargo capacity is an especially useful 572L of space behind the rear seats, this increases to 1,280L with

the back seats folded down. Rear cargo access is via a generously wide door and a low load floor to make it easier to place large and heavy items. On the road, the CX-30 Turbo is a joy to drive. The sporty exhaust note, willing drivetrain and deft, nippy handling means an entertaining drive all the time. The addition of i-ACTIV all-wheel-drive ensures stability in all conditions. Meanwhile, the six-speed automatic transmission delivers power to all four wheels via Mazda’s i-Activ intelligent ondemand all-wheel-drive system. Acceleration is good on highways, the SKYACTIV engines light weight and advanced engineering coupled with a well- geared transmission means the CX-30 feels willing all the time. Yes, additional power would be nice for more top end torque, but nothing major here in terms of everyday sporty or around town driving.

The CX-30's sport driving experience is enhanced by the Mazda’s G-Vectoring Control system Plus, which reduces engine torque, and adjusts steering and throttle inputs to add slight weight on the front wheels to make the steering feel firmer and more direct. The result is sharpened handling during cornering, keeping understeer under control. The all-wheel-drive system offer superb traction. The suspension is taut, offering minimal body roll, while the responsive steering offers agile handling, the hallmark of all Mazda’s. There are paddle shifters and a Sport mode, which does ratchet up the response by holding the gears longer. With the help of cylinder deactivation, the CX-30 is able to achieve fuel consumption ratings of 10.5 L/100km city and 7.9L/100km highway. Not a lot to complain about – If you are in the market for a sporty, fun- to drive smaller compact CUV – The CX-30 is worth taking a look at. Highly recommended.

2023 Mazda CX-30 GT

as tested: $43,250 Including options, freight and PDE.

Insurance advice for home-based businesses

(NC) For small business owners who are operating their business out of their home, it is important to assess the level of business insurance coverage that you and your business require. This goes beyond your standard home insurance policy. Your home insurance policy may cover certain activities for your business, however, the coverage limits are generally much lower than what you would receive through a small business insurance policy.

There are also certain types of coverage that your home insurance policy would not cover. For example, if your business is temporarily shut down due to an insured event, you would not be covered for any loss of income during this period. Or if a customer is visiting your home-based business, and slips and injures themselves on your premises, you may not be

covered under your home insurance policy if you are found liable. With providers such as TD Insurance, you can customize your small business insurance policy based on the needs of your business.

For home-based small business owners, you can learn more by contacting a licensed insurance advisor who can help you address any questions about insurance for your home-based business. You can also find more information at tdinsurance.com.

PharmaCare covers new medical device for people with diabetes

People living with diabetes will benefit from BC PharmaCare’s coverage of FreeStyle Libre 2, a flash glucose monitor (FGM) that allows users to read their blood-sugar levels by swiping a hand-held device or smartphone over the sensor.

The FreeStyle Libre 2 will be covered by BC PharmaCare as a limitedcoverage benefit beginning Tuesday, Aug. 1, 2023.

Glucose monitors enable patients or their caregivers to take action sooner, and help protect people by empowering patients, caregivers and clinicians

PharmaCare currently covers approximately 13,000 patients for the Dexcom G6. Some of these patients may switch to the FreeStyle Libre 2. New patients may use a FreeStyle Libre 2 once it becomes a PharmaCare benefit.

Diabetes affects the body’s ability to regulate blood-glucose levels. The complications of poorly controlled diabetes range from acute (e.g., fatigue, ketoacidosis, seizures) to chronic (e.g., nerve and organ damage). In Canada, diabetes is the sixth-leading cause of death and the

Funding helps people new to B.C. find in-demand jobs

More newcomers to the province will be able to find rewarding, skilled jobs in their communities through several new and innovative programs offered through the Immigrant Employment Council of BC (IEC-BC).

“We want newcomers to find good jobs here, and we want employers to have an easier time finding workers,” said Sheila Malcolmson, Minister of Social Development and Poverty Reduction. “This is why my ministry is funding $7 million to the Immigrant

With more than 900,000 new job openings projected through 2027 and a low unemployment rate, employers throughout the province, especially those in urban areas, struggle to fill their staffing needs. The programs offered by IEC-BC removes the guesswork for employers from small to large businesses and gives job seekers a platform to shine.

Immigrants bring skills, diverse perspectives and international connections to their roles, making them an

to identify glucose trends and adjust medications, activity and food intake.

An FGM system uses an externally worn glucose sensor that is inserted under the skin of a person’s upper arm. When the sensor is “flashed” or scanned with a reader device or smartphone, it transmits the real-time glucose reading and information to the user. A sensor can be worn continuously for as many as 14 days.

Similar to the Dexcom G6, a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) covered by PharmaCare since June 2021, the FreeStyle Libre 2 helps people living with diabetes better manage their blood-sugar levels without having to prick their finger multiple times a day to test manually. Some people may prefer how the FreeStyle Libre 2 is applied or its reduced frequency of sensor replacement.

leading cause of blindness, end-stage kidney disease and non-traumatic amputation.

PharmaCare continues to improve access to the medical devices and prescription drugs that people in B.C. need. In January 2019, B.C. made a $105-million investment over three years to reduce and/or eliminate Fair PharmaCare deductibles and co-payments for British Columbians with lower incomes.

Employment Council of BC to support B.C. newcomers.”

With this grant, IEC-BC will provide extended mentorship to under-employed and unemployed immigrants that will help them understand and adapt their skills and experience to the Canadian labour market. This grant will benefit newcomers and businesses across the province.

The new funding has enabled a new research initiative, Tech Connect Plus, which brings together employers and newcomers for interviews and hiring opportunities and to identify and address factors that affect newcomer employment.

attractive talent pool for employers looking to fill in-demand jobs. People new to the province may need supports so their skills can be applied in different ways to make meaningful contributions to the organizations they join.

IEC-BC is a not-for-profit organization that provides B.C. employers with solutions, tools and resources to attract, hire and retain talented and skilled people new to the province. They support the integration of skilled people in the labour workforce through their programs and training to ensure that global talent can actively participate in the growing economy and building a stronger B.C.

Keep carbon monoxide safety top of mind

(NC) Carbon monoxide, commonly known as CO, is a colourless, odourless gas, and it can cause serious injury or even death. To help protect you and your family against this “silent killer,” here are some important safety tips to follow.

Know the CO basics. Carbon monoxide can be emitted by fuel-burning appliances, such as ovens, furnaces and boilers, and it is impossible to detect without a working CO alarm. Take extra caution during colder months as more use of home heating systems may heighten the risk of a CO leak.

Be aware of the warning signs. Symptoms of CO poisoning can include headache, nausea, dizziness, weakness, chest pain and vomiting, mimicking those of the common cold or the flu. If you suddenly experience any of these symptoms, exit the building and call 911 immediately.

Know what to do in a power outage. If power goes out, portable generators

must only be used outside, at least seven metres from the home. Never use them inside the home, in a garage or in any confined area that can allow CO to collect. Additionally, be careful to always follow operating instructions closely.

Install alarms. Fire and home safety experts from the National Fire Protection Association recommend installing CO alarms, like the First Alert Plug-In CO Alarm with battery back-up, on every floor of your home, including the basement. They should be in or near every sleeping area to ensure your whole home is protected. Remember to test your CO alarms regularly and, if using battery-powered alarms, replace the batteries at least every six months.

Have fuel-burning appliances inspect ed regularly. Arrange for an annual pro fessional inspection of all fuel-burning appliances such as furnaces, stoves, fireplaces, clothes dryers and water heaters to help prevent a possible CO leak in your home.

Canada announces the first-ever Express Entry invitations for newcomers with experience in the trades

Canada’s Express Entry system is now tailored to provide a streamlined and efficient pathway for individuals with expertise in critical fields. By prioritizing the invitation of skilled newcomers with experience in the trades, Canada aims to meet the increasing demand for talent and fill key positions that contribute to

the nation’s economic growth and advancement.

On May 31, the Honourable Sean Fraser, the previous Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship, announced changes to Express Entry through category-based selection. These changes help address labour shortages that support an identified economic goal by inviting candidates with specific work experience or French language ability to apply for permanent residence.

Today, the Honourable Marc Miller, the new Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship, announced the first trades round for category-based selection will open this week. This focus on

candidates with trades expertise— including carpentry, plumbing, and welding—will help Canada’s construction sector attract the skilled talent it needs across the country.

Category-based selection signals Canada’s commitment to attract top

global talent and help meet the need for tradespeople to support the economy. These category-based selection rounds will continue throughout the year, alongside general invitation rounds, and more details will be announced in the coming weeks.

1 - 3 tbsp (15 - 45 ml) maple syrup, depending on how sweet you want your jam

2 tbsp (40 g) chia seeds

Directions:

Rinse your strawberries, pat them dry and remove stems.

Place chopped strawberries into a small pot with water and simmer for 25-30 minutes until the fruit starts to break down and look syrupy. Stir frequently to make sure it doesn’t stick to the bottom of the pot.

Optional:

If you want to get rid of visible chia seeds and strawberry lumps, blend the mixture before placing into jars for storage.

Allow the mixture to thicken for at least 10 minutes before transferring into jars. The jam will continue to thicken as it cools.

Recipe note: There are no added preservatives in this recipe. If you do a full hot-water bath canning process, the jam is safe to store at room temperature. If you choose to skip the canning process, store the jam in the fridge and use it for two to three weeks. You can also freeze the jam for several months and thaw it in the fridge before using it.

The scoop on poop – 5 things you probably didn’t know about occasional constipation

(NC) Did you know that two-in-three Canadians have confessed to having experienced occasional constipation? With most of the population facing this issue, it’s time to break the poo taboo. Here are five things you might have not known:

Constipation feels different for everyone

Constipation is the infrequent passage of stools (less than three a week) that are difficult and can be painful to pass. However, everyone can experience different symptoms, which can include feeling bloated, strained bowel movements, abdominal pain and gas.

S is for success

According to the Bristol Stool Chart, there are a total of seven types of poos that range from hard lumps to liquid

consistency, each one giving clues to what might be happening. Think S for a healthy stool: a soft and smooth form.

It can happen to anyone – it’s not just for seniors

Although typically associated with aging, according to a new survey, occasional constipation is experienced often by young adults. It’s reported that nearly three out of four Canadians aged 18 to 34 experience it. It’s not uncommon, even with a healthy diet.

It happens the most when we travel Nearly four in 10 Canadians have experienced occasional constipation during vacation. Reasons for this can vary, from sitting in transit for long periods of time, to eating more than usual, to the change in routine.

If you have not been keeping up to date with work that needs to be done much pressure will arise as a result. You will not be able to leave it any longer. This could also apply to any laziness when it comes to looking after your health and general well being. Getting a new foundation in place can be easier than you anticipate.

Let go of anything that doesn’t seem to fit with what you want in the future. There will be a greater desire to free yourself up personally but this won’t happen without making some decisions. There needs to be a basis of practicality when it comes to what you can actually manage. Over-extending yourself will not get you anywhere.

New things could start to become important to you, especially if finances are involved. These are decisions you need to make for yourself and not in response to pressure from what others expect. There is no way of escaping certain obligations but you need to take action in deciding on how you are going to take care of them.

The New Moon this week occurs in your own sign and with it can come some insight into what you should aim for long term. This will likely mean some sort of endings with a person or people in your life now. Not that the whole picture will be clear just yet. Practical information or fact gathering could be necessary for a while yet.

Be cautious with decision making this week as you could be easily inclined to over commit yourself. This could occur because there are hidden aspects and in your enthusiasm they will be easily overlooked. Some sort of difficulty or disagreement could arise over money matters and especially so if money has been owed a while.

You may need to stand your ground when it comes to something important to you on a personal level as you meet opposition from somebody who feels they have greater authority in some way. The main thing is to remain mentally optimistic when it comes to changes you want to make in the future. Be patient and resist pressure.

Somebody else does not necessarily have your best interests in mind and for this reason you need to be very cautious when it comes to taking on any new responsibilities. They could end up being a lot more work, which could prove overwhelming in the end. You need to remain mindful of your own priorities.

It might be time to take a more serious approach to what takes precedence in your life. This could mean cutting back on things you like to do or have but are not really a true necessity. The opportunity to enjoy the company of others who are out of the ordinary in some way could generate new directions in your life in the future.

You can be put under pressure to take responsibility for something that needs to be put into place, which might mean a bit of work you would rather not have to do. You could learn something useful and might even benefit from the way somebody else handles similar situations. It will leave you clear to focus on future plans.

New directions with other people can take shape. This could prove rather insightful for you, giving you a sense that there needs to be some sort of definiteness or finality established. Your thoughts and decisions need to be practical and you would be better not to consider anything that could be risk taking in the future.

If you are not happy with regular routines, you could now have the opportunity to inject new life into them. This can be associated with leaving the past behind in some way and entering into situations that are very much out of the ordinary. People you meet as a result might be a bit over the top but just enjoy the company.

If there is somebody around you with a dominant attitude, it could very well come to a head this week. Don’t let your emotions get the better of you. It is possible to control yourself and remain calm and poised on the surface at least. You have the knowledge at your disposal to simply deal with the facts. That will win out in the end.

Hrithik turns director!

Hrithik Roshan has been in the Hindi film industry for more than two decades now and has cemented his standing with films like Kaho Naa... Pyaar Hai, Dhoom 2, Jodha Akbar and War. And now the buzz is that the actor has turned director, not for a film but for an advertising commercial. As per a report, the good looking actor has gone behind the camera to shoot an ad for a premium menswear brand that he endorses. The ad film also celebrates 25 years of Hrithik Roshan in the business. In an interview, Siddharth Anand, director of Hrithik’s films like Bang Bang, War and Fighter, had said that Hrithik doesn’t look at himself alone in a movie. He is a closet filmmaker but doesn’t know it himself. Siddharth also said that he keeps telling him he should direct a film soon. Hrithik will soon be seen in Fighter where he has teamed up with Siddharth Anand again after War. The film also stars Anil Kapoor and Deepika Padukone in the lead. The film will be released in January next year.

Before starting her journey in the entertainment industry in India, Sunny Leone had a flourishing career in the adult entertainment industry in the US. In a recent interview, the actor candidly discussed her experience in the adult film industry and emphasised her approach in maintaining control over every project she undertook. Earlier, Mia Khalifa, who spent just three months in the adult entertainment industry before leaving in 2015, made a statement revealing that she made merely Rs 8.75 lakh from her projects while the producers continue to mint money from her videos. In a conversation with a news portal, when Sunny was asked if she had a similar experience, she said, “No, not at all. I worked with the best people. I have no horror stories. I read through every contract and corrected every single contract, so was gaining something from it. I was in control of every single thing that I was doing. I saw it as a business. I saw it as a means to get to something else. It wasn’t free for all in my world. Everybody’s experiences are different, mine was totally different.” After more than a decade in the Hindi film industry,Sunny’s hard work and dedication finally paid off when she landed a significant role in Anurag Kashyap’s Kennedy.The movie recently premiered at the esteemed 75th Cannes Film Festival, receiving widespread acclaim and a seven-minute standing ovation.

Actress Zareen Khan who made her debut in Veer said that comparisons with Katrina Kaif backfired on her career as the film industry didn’t give her a chance to prove her individuality. A fan asked Zareen on social media platform, “People compared you a lot with Katrina Kaif in your early days in Bollywood. How did it make you feel and did it have any impact on your career?” To which the Housefull 2 actress replied, “So when I entered this industry, I was literally like a lost child, since I don’t come from a filmy background. So it made me feel really happy being compared to Katrina as I was her fan too, and found her really pretty. But it backfired on my career as the people of this industry didn’t give me a chance to prove my individuality.” Zareen was last seen in Hate Story 3, Telugu film Chanakya and Punjabi film Jatt.

I love ensemble cast : Tamannah

Actress Tamannaah Bhatia says being a part of an ensemble is empowering and she doesn’t feel insecure in a multi-star cast.Talking about younger generation avoiding ensemble,the Himmatwalaactress said, “I think change is individual,I remember when Baahubalihappened, my first successful Telugu film Happy Days happened, then I did a recent show titled Jee Karda,I’ve always been a part of ensemble films and I have never shied away from that because I think there is power when great bunch of creative people come together and I think I have always been a very secure actor.” She went on to add, “I can say for myself that in fact when you are with these great stalwarts from the industry, your best comes out, because you know you can’t do anything else but to bring your A game.”

Haven’t taken shortcuts to shine : Vaani

Actress Vaani Kapoor, who is known for films like War, Befikre, Shuddh Desi Romance and others, is all set to make her debut on OTT with Mandala Murders and has to tap into her knowledge bank as an actor. The Shamshera actress said, “I was looking for something really clutter-breaking for my foray into OTT. I’m thrilled to be working with a mind like Gopi Puthran for Mandala Murders, a gritty crime thriller series that has pushed me to work my hardest in genre I’ve never attempted before.” Although the show has challenged the actor in her, she is taking it upon herself to rise above those challenges. “I have always been an actor who has never taken any shortcuts to shine when it comes to my craft because I respect the art of filmmaking and the purity that one needs to have towards acting. Mandala Murders has truly pushed me as an actor to deliver a performance

while working on a film, on a set. She says that she likes learning different methods while working with different directors. As Janhvi teamed up with the Chhichhore director for the first time, she said, “The kind of an actor that I am and I want to be… I like the thrill of following my director’s lead for each film. So, the director can be demanding or can expect my emotional and physical investment… I will just go with him/ her on that journey.” She further adds, “I like to follow my director and learn more about myself in the process and also the craft. As an artiste you can pick up different things in different processes and it in a way, I think, makes each performance more different.” Earlier, talking about working on her latest flick, Janhvi had said, “One doesn’t have to struggle and take pressure to guarantee results. Sometimes you can just enjoy the process, believe in what you are doing and follow your director’s lead and the results can be equally special.”
