History has come full circle with Rishi Sunak in the hot seat

Bengaluru’s son-in-law

Rishi Sunak is the man of the moment, the toast of town. Indians the world over are celebrating his ascent to the top job in UK. But the newly anointed British PM is not just of desi origin, he is also an aliya of Karnataka, a son-inlaw. Married as he is to the Bengaluru’s IT man Narayan Murthy’s daughter Akshata Murthy (whose net worth we have learned is greater than the late Queen’s).

Brown skinned, third generation descendant of Indian immigrants, and the youngest PM at 42 years in over two centuries, Rishi Sunak has shattered many glass ceilings. With 10 Downing Street as his new address, he is in an unprecedented space for a non-white. As significant a world event as Barack Obama entering the White House in 2009.

Adding to this great achievement is also the smaller accolade of being tagged as Dishy Rishi by the UK media. Bengalureans can beam with the indulgent pride of sambandhis.

But more importantly, history has come full circle with an Indian origin person ruling over the British who ruled us for 200 years. The wheel of time equalizes all things.

GETTING AROUND TOWN

Bengaluru

is a traveller’s delight. It starts with the air conditioned Volvo buses and the pre-paid taxi counter at the airport. Not to mention, the pre-paid auto counters at the city’s railway stations. But the finest example is the ease with which you can navigate the central business district of MG Road and around with the Big 10 buses. You can hop on and hop off at any point after your shopping expedition. But the finest experience will be the first reach of the Namma Metro train running from Old Madras Road to MG Road. Happy travels.

Gupta’s Textiles is a wellentrenched Bangalore men’s dressing brand store since six decades. Started in 1964 by Raj Narayan Gupta in Gandhinagar, Gupta’s Textiles is now in the hands of the third generation of the enterprising business family.

From the joint family business then, as the family grew the business was divided and thus in 1985, Gupta’s Textiles Annexe was set up as a new entity. With its first store in Gandhinagar, it was in Majestic itself till 2002. Then later, the store was shifted to Malleshwaram in 2006 where it still stands over of space.

over 2500 sq ft of space. In 2015, another store was opened to cater to the customers in south Bangalore area, with 2500 sq ft in the prime shopping location of Jayanagar 4th Block. Then in 2020, just before the pandemic hit, their third store was opened in Commercial Street, Bangalore’s ultimate shopping destination for clothing, apparel and fashion.

The Founder of Gupta’s Textiles, Raj Narayan Gupta hailed from the small town of Ballia in Uttar Pradesh and was an Engineer by qualification. He came to Bangalore and constructed the Gandhinagar market which came to be known as Gupta Market. Later his entrepreneurial spirit had him dabbling in ventures as diverse as a hotel lodge and icecream shop. Then he realised the potential and demand for textiles and set up Gupta’s Textiles, and since then, there has been no looking back.

Gupta’s Textiles was the most famous men’s clothing store with ethnic and Western apparel including

Raymond’s suitings and shirtings, ethnics suits, sherwanis and more for men, being the only such store for gentlemen in Bangalore that time. From 1964 to about 1990, Gupta’s totally dominated the market for men’s premium suits, shirts, trousers and fabrics with in-house tailoring.

The legacy continued when in 1985, the next generation Punith Gupta took over the reins of the business, and now the third generation is also hands-on with his sons Adarsh Gupta and Nischal Gupta joining the family enterprise. In fact, the entire family is handson and involved in the day-to-day running of the business including the ladies of the family, with all members handling the stores themselves, along with staff.

Gupta’s is famous for men’s suiting textiles with in-house tailor facility for custom-tailoring which is their forte. Customers have been coming here since generations for buying and stitching suits, sherwanis, kurta-pajama sets, shirts, trousers,

and Indo-western apparel, along with accessories including belts, handkerchiefs, safa (groom’s turban), mojris (ethnic footwear), stoles, and everything else needed for men and bridegrooms. They are the authorised dealers for Raymond’s, as well as for many Italian famous brands like Scabal, Rada, Zegna, Armani and other men’s designer fashion labels.

The best part is that even with the superior quality and top brands of textiles, fabrics and suits, the pricing at Gupta’s is very competitive. They are authorised dealers who have priced their products very reasonably, giving customers the best value-for-money. The products are available across all price ranges from the lowest to the most high-end and everything in-between to suit all

budgets, tastes and requirements. When it comes to festive shopping and wedding shopping, Gupta’s Textiles Annexe is the store to head to in Malleshwaram, Jayanagar and Commercial Street for the complete range of men’s ethnic fashions, formal wear, corporate wear and above all wedding ensembles, with customised inhouse tailoring for the perfect fit and specified details. From a young guy stepping into manhood to the oldest grandfather, this is the best place to get outfitted for any occasion. It’s the complete shop for men of all ages and the perfect destination for complete shopping for bridegrooms to turn out in style for their big day.

Gupta’s Textiles Annexe is the concept store for men’s wedding attire with lots of choice in the best brands, finest fabrics, readymades and custom-tailoring. It’s the smartest choice for shoppers and once you walk in, you are sure to become a customer for life!

With

Bengaluru, the sobriquets keep getting added up. From Air Conditioned City to Aviation Capital to Garden City, this small town turned technopolis has added a new word to the American lexicon: ‘Bangalored’. It means ‘to lose one’s job’ as a result of off shoring work to India. That’s not all. The city is emerging as a medical tourism hub in India by offering ‘First World Service at Third World Cost’. What’s more, the best and the brightest multinationals are spicing up the retail scene by test-marketing large format stores like Reebok, Levi’s, Adidas, Esprit and Nautica. It’s become a ‘yuppie heaven’. Now that’s yet another sobriquet for the city. With the Metro Rail opening in phases, things are getting better by the day. Visit the city and be bowled over.

HIT THE HIGH NOTES Pubs, clubs, lounge bars...

The

city is famous for its bars and pubs. It’s called the Beer Capital of India. With good reason. But the best reason to pub hop? It’s cosmopolitan crowd and the niche pubs that serve a select clientele. There are lounge spaces for the ladies, retro lovers and jazz enthusiasts. Not to mention, resto-bars, sports bars, roof-top bars, hookah bars, dance bars and cigar lounges for the casual and adventurous. Not to mention, the city’s first wine boutique pub. Reason enough to rewind, reboot and restart.

•Alcohol may not be served at some of these places, as per Supreme Court regulation. Please call the pub/restaurant to confirm.

If you are new to the city, your visit isn’t complete without a visit to its silk and jewellery hotspots. Not to mention, handicraft stores for their sandalwood and antique masterpieces.

SI JOINT DYSFUNCTION

Don’t suffer, treat it under the expertise of Perfect Bounce, helmed by Dr. Richa Singh

For decades, the sacroiliac joint was suspected as a common cause of low back and/or leg pain, although difficulty in accurate diagnostic testing left many in the medical profession skeptical. Today it is estimated that the sacroiliac joint is responsible for 15% to 30% of lower back pain cases.

The sacroiliac joint typically has little motion. Small movements at the joint help with shock absorption and forward/backward bending. The joint is reinforced by strong ligaments surrounding it, some of which extend across the joint in the back of the pelvis. This network of soft tissues provides support, limits movement at the joint, and assists with absorbing pressure.

Sources of Sacroiliac Joint Dysfunction

The primary mechanisms of SI joint dysfunction include:

• Too much movement (hypermobility or instability) in the sacroiliac joint can cause the pelvis to feel unstable and lead to pain. Pain from too much motion is typically felt in the lower back and/or hip, and may radiate into the groin area.

• Too little movement (hypomobility or fixation) can cause muscle tension, pain, and may inhibit mobility. Pain is typically felt on one side of the low back or buttocks, and can radiate down the back of leg (similar to sciatica pain).

• Inflammation of the sacroiliac joint (sacroiliitis) can also produce pelvic pain and

• Sacroiliac joint dysfunction is more common in young and middle-aged women. Women who are pregnant or have recently given birth may be more susceptible to sacroiliac joint pain. stiffness. Sacroiliac joint dysfunction may cause inflammation, or inflammation may occur with normal function of the joint from an infection, rheumatoid condition, or other cause.

A person suffering SI Joint Dysfunction may feel:

• Lower back pain that feels dull, aching, and can range from mild to severe. Lower back pain is typically felt only on one side, but in some cases may be felt on both sides.

• Pain that spreads to the hips, buttocks, and/or groin. One of the most common areas to feel SI joint pain is in the buttocks and upper back or side of the thigh. Pain is typically felt only on one side, but may be felt on both sides.

• Sciatic-like pain in the buttocks and/or backs of the thighs that feels hot, sharp, and stabbing and may include numbness and tingling. Sacroiliac joint dysfunction may cause sciatica-like symptoms that rarely extend below the knee.

• Stiffness and reduced range-of-motion in the lower back, hips, pelvis, and groin, which may cause difficulty with movements such as walking up stairs or bending at the waist.

• Worsened pain when putting added pressure on the sacroiliac joint, such as climbing stairs, running or jogging, and lying or putting weight on one side.

• Instability in the pelvis and/or lower back, which may cause the pelvis to feel like it will buckle or give way when standing, walking, or moving from standing to sitting.

Causes and Risk Factors for Sacroiliac Joint Dysfunction:

• Gait issues

• Pregnancy or recent childbirth

• Prior lower back surgery

• Activities that place repeated stress on the joint

Physical Therapy for Sacroiliac Joint Pain:

• Stretching to reduce muscle tension and spasms in the lower back, hips, and pelvis, including the piriformis, gluteus maximus, and hamstring muscles.

• Strengthening exercises to better support the sacroiliac joint and pelvis/lower back for strengthening abdominal muscles, lateral trunk muscles, and low back muscles.

• Aerobic exercises to elevate blood flow and bring nutrients and oxygen to damaged tissues, which can facilitate the healing process. Low-impact aerobics like stationary cycling, running on an elliptical, or water aerobics help.
