The brand film, a part of the campaign, aptly re-creates the present scenario, with countless families celebrating the festive season through video calls, thereby striking an emotional chord with the audience, while underscoring the value of the right attire to enhance any festive celebration and make moments special. The campaign is set to run from 3rd October, to 22nd October, with Myntra well poised to leverage its leadership position in the occasion-wear category among shoppers, ahead of the festive season. The protagonists in the ad-film, Saif and Soha, actively exemplify the richness of the House of Pataudi collection with their presence, embellished in grace and elegance. The film emphasizes the joy of celebrating festive traditions with loved ones and is set in the auspicious occasion of Durga Puja. It opens with Saif, who is on a video call with Soha, cooking the quintessential Bengali Bhoger Khichdi. Though satisfied with his meal, he cannot shake off the feeling of missing a key ingredient. The brother-sister duo debate over what it could be, before Saif reveals it by opening the Myntra app on his phone. Soha soon receives and then unwraps a Myntra box to get pleasantly surprised by a gorgeous ‘House of Pataudi’ dress. Realizing it was Saif who sent the gift, Soha is quick to show off her elegance in the ‘House of Pataudi’ Salwar. Saif, himself draped in a luxurious ‘House of Pataudi’ Kurta, was missing the ethnic touch that comes with such occasions during the festive season and the film closes out with the siblings sharing a light-hearted moment. A voiceover at the end encourages all viewers to try something new this Durga Puja <div type="Youtube" id="iaIgocW2nSM" title="Joy. Laughter. Delicious food. And festive style, with Myntra!" thumbUrl="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/iaIgocW2nSM/mqdefault.jpg"></div> Speaking on the occasion, Harish Narayanan, Head of Marketing, Myntra, said, “Our Durga Pujo campaign will establish a deeper connection with the audience while emphasizing the role of Myntra in life’s special moments, specifically during this festive season. While social celebrations and gatherings may be rare, people in the country who have been in the confines of their homes are looking for basking in festive cheer and celebrating the festival in style, looking their best. As always, Saif brings a great degree of charm and depth to the ‘House of Pataudi’ brand, while Soha strongly complements that with her elegance and feminine touch.” Commenting on the brand campaign, Saif Ali Khan, said “I take great pride in elevating and upholding the rich and varied traditions of our great country and the Pataudi and Tagore heritage. Durga Puja and all other cultural aspects of Bengal always sing to my heart as it reminds me of family and tradition. Given any situation, people have to hold their families closer than ever, and I am certain our film will connect with people across India at a deeper level.” Speaking on the brand campaign, Afsar Zaidi- Founder and Enabler, Exceed Entertainment, said “With the Pujo film, Myntra through its House of Pataudi film, kickstarts the festive spirit in a year that has been so challenging. While this year, celebrations have taken a new form, family bond and togetherness have been redefined and that’s what the film continues to offer.” With the goal of reaching and engaging a wider audiences across India, the campaign will be run through a diversified media mix, which includes digital and social media channels, as well as running ads on TV ahead of the festive season. As a part of Myntra’s efforts to drive higher brand relevance with a diversified, market-contextual approach to its campaigns, this campaign will be run focusing on the East markets.

It is said that acting can’t be learned, and rightly so, because if it could be, that would be the only degree that one would ever require to make a living.

While nepotism is highly prevalent in the Hindi film industry, because of which we see many star kids not getting college degrees and entering Bollywood, there are people who believed in earning a degree before entering Bollywood, keeping a door open in case luck doesn’t favour them in this very unpredictable glamour world.

“Dhoom 3 continues to create history at both the Indian and overseas box office. It is now officially the first Indian film to cross Rs 500 crore worldwide,” the statement said.

In the past, they have enjoyed a long association with Kareena Kapoor Khan who featured in many of their <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W8D8PobvzHo">videos</a>. Previous to that, Prega News had onboarded Shilpa Shetty, who also featured in their <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fanYoZ1ctE4">TVC</a>.

The word ‘Period’ is usually uttered in hushed voices and years of social conditioning have built a culture of silence around what is a normal biological phenomenon. With young girls and women having limited access to menstrual education and basic sanitary care products, the concept of menstrual hygiene has also remained a challenge in India. And periods don’t stop for pandemics. In fact, lockdowns intensify the impact of household level taboos and stigmas on women -- making it more difficult to manage menstruation without shame and discomfort in confined spaces. In rural India, the unavailability of sanitary napkins coupled with unhygienic and crowded washrooms and toilets in their localities have worsened the situation for women. According to Menstrual Hygiene brand Whisper and UNESCO, the global pandemic has forced girls to abandon sanitary napkins for menstrual pads made of cloth, which has raised the spectre of a looming health hazard. Adding to the misery, the lack of menstrual hygiene education in India is also impacting 23 million girls dropping out of school. Throwing light on how the global pandemic has impacted menstruating people in rural India, Chetna Soni, Category Leader - Feminine Care, P&amp;G Indian sub-continent, said, “These unprecedented times have made it even more difficult to keep girls in school. The premature closure of schools due to the pandemic affected access to education, especially for girls from marginalized communities. This has made them even more vulnerable to dropping out of school completely. Many of these girls would receive pads for period management from school which stopped, leading to them using unhygienic period protection. According to UNESCO, 74 crore girls were disproportionately impacted during the COVID-19 pandemic and it may further affect their return to school. Now more than ever, it is important we ensure girls have access to period protection and education. And support them in every way we can to protect their future.” So, to help these young girls in rural India stay in school during the pandemic, Whisper launched ‘Mobileshaala,’ a free phone-based learning platform. It worked with supporters like Soha Ali Khan, Dutee Chand and Bhumi Pednekar to spread awareness. The brand also donated more than 32 lakh pads to essential workers, women in shelter homes, women from migrant families and communities in need across India, in partnership with various State Government bodies and relief organisations. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="State of menstrual hygiene in India during a global pandemic" text="State of menstrual hygiene in India during a global pandemic">State of menstrual hygiene in India during a global pandemic</cmsannotation> The global pandemic has taken up all our medical attention and resources. On the other hand, period poverty is a decades-old, silent pandemic that is getting worse for menstruating people in our country. This is a direct consequence of social stigma, lack of awareness and poor access to menstrual products. Shedding more light on the current state of menstrual hygiene in India, Soni shared, “Even today, menstrual hygiene is not considered a priority in India. Out of a total of ~40 crore menstruating women in India, less than 20% use sanitary pads. In urban areas, this number only goes up to 52%. This indicates that nearly half of even urban-based women use unhygienic methods for period protection, making them vulnerable to health issues. In our conversations with various young girls, we discovered that many of them prioritize beauty products but are not ready to spend a fraction of the amount on an essential like sanitary pads. Adoption of sanitary napkins is less than 20% in the country whereas adoption of cosmetics like lipstick is significantly higher at 65%. In addition, there is still a social stigma associated with periods.” Whisper is on a mission to help India achieve 100% menstrual hygiene adoption. It is focusing on 3 A’s to build a better world for menstruating women, which are awareness, acceptance and access. As per Whisper and UNESCO’s studies, about 71% of adolescent girls in India remain unaware of menstruation until they get their first period, adversely affecting their confidence and self-esteem. Whisper aims to help all young girls arm themselves with enough information about menstruation. It launched #KeepGirlsInSchool movement with UNESCO. The partnership is aimed at developing an integrated puberty education module in school curricula and helping young girls in achieving their full potential. In addition to this, the brand Whisper has also taken a pledge to educate 3 crore girls in the next three years. Telling us more about the campaign's performance so far, Soni said, “The campaign truly sparked a national movement which was very encouraging. We will be impacting more than 90 Lakh girls and help keep them in school. Supported by UNESCO this year, we aim to integrate a period education module in the school curriculum in India - to ensure systematic changes ensuring girls are equipped to manage periods and don't miss out on school or their dreams. The movement has been able to drive awareness amongst 5.5 crore people in just one year. The support from key opinion leaders like Mr. Eric Fahlt and Dr. Huma Masood from UNESCO, Bhumi Pednekar, Soha Ali Khan, Dutee Chand amongst others has been testament to a movement we can collectively drive. We see this as a pivotal movement to attain 100% menstrual hygiene In India.” But there’s hope after all. 30 years ago, less than 1 crore women used hygienic sanitary protection during their period. Whisper has helped accelerate this number by 10X and it continues to grow. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Using the right marketing tools to empower women and girls" text="Using the right marketing tools to empower women and girls">Using the right marketing tools to empower women and girls</cmsannotation> Soni told us that the brand follows a simple principle for marketing. In every communication, it strives to be a force for female good. She shared with us a few key milestones that Whisper has crossed in its marketing journey so far. Recalling the first change-making campaign that Whisper worked on, Soni said, “Whisper was the first brand to show a sanitary napkin on television and mention the word ‘periods’ in advertising as well as demonstrate how the product works on National TV back in 1993. Pushing communication boundaries for societal good is at our core.” In 2014, Whisper bust the taboo around ‘touching the pickle’ during menstruation. <div type="Youtube" id="5s8SD83ILJY" title="Announcing the End of Period Taboos | #TouchThePickle" thumbUrl="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/5s8SD83ILJY/mqdefault.jpg"></div> “Whisper became the first brand in India in 2014 to take the topic of period taboos head-on in the globally renowned Whisper ‘Touch the Pickle’ campaign. The campaign went on to win several global awards including Grand Prix at the Cannes Lions and sparked a conversation in India that led to periods being front and center in the society. The campaign is also known as the trailblazer for bringing periods out of the closet in popular culture as the government, entertainment industry and social sector became part of the movement. We followed this up with award-winning revolutionary campaigns such as ‘Whispers Break Silence’ and ‘Meri Life Mere Rules’, characterized by local cultural insights and have led to organic consumer movements,” shared Soni. Under the same campaign, Whisper launched an advertisement urging chemists to not wrap sanitary napkins in a black plastic bag or newspaper. <div type="Youtube" id="SyZDsDthu0Y" title="My #TouchThePickle Moment" thumbUrl="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/SyZDsDthu0Y/mqdefault.jpg"></div> Its current campaign is the #KeepGirlsInSchool movement. <div type="Youtube" id="10b1vVe_SQ0" title="Whisper Keep Girls in School" thumbUrl="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/10b1vVe_SQ0/mqdefault.jpg"></div> While there has been a sea of change in normalising the conversation around periods, there is still so much more road to cover. Here’s hoping that more menstrual hygiene brands stop using blue liquid in their ads to represent period blood and help normalise it.

Bollywood reacts on #MeatBan in hometown Mumbai

New Delhi, June 21 (IANSlife) Yoga is the new old, and it's here to stay. From traditional yogis to the modern ones, yoga practitioners speak highly of its benefits. From physical to mental and even spiritual, the ancient practice has had a deep impact on many celebrity fitness trainers and enthusiasts, including Bollywood actors Malaika Arora and Shilpa Shetty Kundra. On International Yoga Day 2020, IANSlife spoke to many celebrity yoga enthusiasts on the transformational power of yoga. Here's what we learnt. Malaika Arora, actor and co-founder of Diva Yoga "There are a lot of times when life puts you down in a way that you feel it's difficult to hold your head above the water. I turned to yoga in a similar phase like that where I needed that bit of calm and direction in my life. Some people turn to meditation, others to writing or singing. Everybody has a different outlet, for me I found that in yoga. It really helped me at a very precarious stage in my life and I'm extremely grateful. "It has helped me manage my stress and gives me a certain level of spiritual peace. It helps to take a break from the chaos of our lives and more importantly from the chaos in our minds. Several platforms like Disney+Hotstar and the SARVA App have a number of specific asanas specially to uplift depressed moods, fight fatigue, and bring a state of calmness in an entirety, hence I'm a strong advocate for yoga." Sunaina Rekhi, celebrity yoga teacher and global icon in health and lifestyle "I feel a lot have confused Yoga to be just about the physical asanas, but it's more than that. It's about working with the mind which controls our body, our thoughts, and overall our mental health. Handling a lot of things at once or facing major setbacks in life can bog us down, sometimes we don't even realize the point of trigger for a depressed or anxious mood. Meditation and practicing different forms of yoga can be extremely beneficial to keep those thoughts and feelings in check." Mickey Mehta, health, well-being and fitness guru "Next month, I complete 50 years of exercising, 38 years in the profession and in August I will be completely 58. With close to 4 decades of being in the profession I went through the entire spectrum of fitness, health, wellness, wellbeing. Haven't found anything as deep as vast and as high; eternal and infinite as yoga is. Yoga has been the seed of evolution of mankind. "Yoga is probably the only panacea for all ailments man is ailing from - pride, anger, lust, envy, gluttony, avarice and sloth. Yoga can dissolve it all. The disorder of life created by man's ego and the seven sins could be put back in order. The disease of the man who takes birth with the seven sins could be brought to ease with yoga. Neutralising the toxins of the body, mind, spirit, bringing about a great harmony, unity, unification, synchronisation of our circadian rhythm with the rhythm of the electromagnetic field of the universe. Yoga transforms, yoga transcends, yoga can make us Gods, make us climb higher on the ladder of evolution higher than Gods and without yoga one can fall below animals. Yoga brings about the perfect equilibrium in the polarities of Chadra Surya, Ying Yang, Shiv Shakti. Yoga neutralises the conflict and the contradiction of the pull and push of the polarities. Yoga brings you at the shoonyam quotient of bliss. Yoga is that eternal kiss. Let yoga get maximized, mankind get optimized, this Universe get Mickeymized!" Bollywood actress Soha Ali Khan "Yoga is one of my most preferred forms of exercise - as it has a positive impact on the body as well as the mind. To complement my yoga routine, I also follow a healthy diet and ensure eating a handful of almonds every day. Almonds are considered as Sattvic foods, and are a source of 15 key nutrients like protein, Vitamin E, magnesium etc. Additionally, almonds provide energy and according to Ayurveda, they also help in toning all body tissues." Fitness enthusiast and Supermodel Milind Soman "I am a firm believer in the power of Yoga, and make it a part of my activity. But I also believe it's equally important to practice conscious and healthy eating to reap the best benefits of your exercise. I prefer snacking on healthier foods like almonds, instead of unwholesome or fried snacks. Almonds are light and easy to carry, making them a great snack to consume in between meals." Actress Kirti Kulhari "Yoga has been a major part of my life for the last 15 years and like a lot of us , I was introduced to it through Baba Ramdev ji. I absolutely love the nature of it, owing to the fact that's it's holistic in nature. It brings together spiritual, physical, mental and emotional well-being and balance, and this for me is the true essence of " Being healthy ". And we all know how important this original idea of "health" is in today's times. Yoga's calming and balancing effects are immediate and of course it's regular and consistent practice brings about permanent changes of the highest quality..I couldn't recommend it enough..And I feel that this introduction of "International yoga day" is a brilliant initiative and coming from the land where Yoga comes from, we must not only be very proud but truly make it a very important part of our lives. Rest, one who does Yoga knows, that it's benefits are to be experienced and not so easily described in words. Actress Yuvika Chaudhary "I've just started practicing Yoga and it's a new thing for me. I've been hearing a lot from people that Yoga se hi hoga. Its slow but even if I meditate for five minutes, its relaxing and I really want to go ahead and excel and completely pursue Yoga as I've been wanting to do so for the longest time. I started off with meditation and Surya Namaskar and it has really helped me, especially cope with the lockdown and the circumstances around us. With so much negativity happening around us, I have finally accepted Yoga, although not completely but it's a slow and steady process. My father and grandfather have been practicing Yoga for years but I've never gotten into it. Yoga has been catching on a lot recently but it has been practiced for years in my family. My dad has always told me to practice Yoga and I've always took it for granted but now I really value it." Actress Rasika Dugal "One of my yoga teachers said to me that yoga is as much about how the practice makes you feel when you are on the mat as when you are off the mat. Yoga has taught me how to be gentle with myself and that every small effort counts. It's one of those things that you keep doing calmly and persistently without the pressure of achieving anything and your body surprises you. I also love the detail of it - how one tiny change in the way you execute an aasana can transform the experience and effect of that aasana entirely." Actress Sonnalli Seygall "For me yoga tops the list when it comes to any sort of workout, because it's a complete body and mind workout. I have been practising since my childhood in Kolkata and that time yoga was not even so popular as it is now! Infact I feel sad when I see that yoga has become more popular now in India after the west made it famous with likes of Madonna doing it. We as Indians have such a beautiful, beneficial and old discipline passed down to us, I feel we should definitely incorporate it in our lifestyle. For me personally, yoga is my life! It not only keeps me fit physically and in great shape but also makes me emotionally strong and mentally fit. Especially now with this pandemic , I recommend certain pranayamas and asanas to everyone as it helps you make your lungs stronger and boosts your immunity!" Actress Elli Avram "Yoga is extremely important for your health, it helps you find your inner strength and inner peace. Yoga really calms you down and it helps you to stay balanced. According to me, that is what life is all about. It's about balance. Yoga isn't actually about weight loss, it's basically about teaching you to find your inner strength and heal yourself. Every posture in yoga has a reason, it's for a certain organ in your body, or it's for your blood or your cells, yoga heals you from the inside. Yoga is actually medication, that's how powerful it is and this is something that we all need to understand more. I have never practiced yoga in my life for weight loss, I practiced because I was because I was craving that inner strength."

How yoga transformed these celebrity yogis

Smriti Irani’s claim of having a degree from the coveted Yale University has created quite a hullabaloo. Once again <keyword id="6419538" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="Bollywood-celebrities">Bollywood celebrities</keyword> and their educational background are under scanner. While foreign universities are busy conferring our celebrated stars like <keyword id="6357912" type="PERSON" weightage="100" keywordseo="amitabh-bachchan">Amitabh Bachchan</keyword> and <keyword id="1671" type="PERSON" weightage="100" keywordseo="Shah-Rukh-Khan">Shah Rukh Khan</keyword> with honours, here’s a look at their real qualifications… 
 
Amitabh Bachchan 
The mega star of Bollywood is one of the highly educated actors. He’s a graduate from Sherwood College, Nainital and then went to Delhi’s Kirori Mal College for doing a double major in Science and Arts. Not just that, the powerhouse of talent has been awarded honorary doctorate degrees from Queensland University in Australia. 
 
Shah Rukh Khan 
King Khan graduated in Economics from Delhi University’s Hansraj College and went on to do Master in Mass Communication from Jamia Milia Islamia, New Delhi, which he didn’t complete. 
 
John Abraham 
A perfect example of brains and brawn, John Abraham completed his schooling from Bombay Scottish School, Mumbai and went on to do his graduation in economics from Jai Hind College. He also holds a Management Degree from Narsee Monjee Institute of Management Studies. Before making it big in Bollywood he was a professional media planner. 
 
Salman Khan 
Star of the masses, Salman Khan went to Scindia School in Gwalior for some years before joining Mumai’s St.Stanislaus High School. He went to National College, Bandra but never completed it. 
 
Aamir Khan 
Mr Perfectionist that he is known as in the industry, Aamir was an average student in school. He went to Narsee Monjee College, Mumbai, but never attended classes as he was always hooked up to dramatics. 
 
Ranbir Kapoor 
Bollywood’s latest heartthrob, Ranbir Kapoor went to Bombay Scottish School in Mumbai. For his graduation he went to Mumbai’s HR College, which he quit after 2 years to pursue film-making and method acting at the School of Visual Arts and the Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute, respectively. 
 
<keyword id="8145" type="PERSON" weightage="100" keywordseo="Preity-zinta">Preity Zinta</keyword> 
One of the highest educated actresses in Bollywood, Preity did her Bachelors in English Honours from St. Bede’s College in Shimla. You would be surprised to know that this bubbly beauty is also a graduate in psychology and post graduate in criminal psychology. 
 
Vidya Balan Another actress who put her <keyword id="6355445" type="COMPANY" weightage="100" keywordseo="Education">education</keyword> before acting is Vidya Balan. The Dirty Picture actress is a graduate in sociology from St.Xavier’s College, Mumbai.

Karisma Kapoor 
A look at this poised and sophisticated actress and mommy today and you would never believe that she did her schooling only till sixth grade. Yes, Karishma Kapoor is a school dropout. She had studied at the Cathedral and John Cannon School. But then who needs school when your father is Randhir Kapoor and grand pa is legendary Raj Kapoor. 
 
Ameesha Patel 
She might have played a dumb secretary to Anil Kapoor in Race 2, but in real life Ameesha Patel was the head girl of Cathedral and John Cannon School. She went to US for a degree in Economics from Tuffs University at Medford. That’s not all. She also has a degree in bio genetic engineering from Boston University.

How Educated Are The Bollywood Stars?

Since the past few days, rumours are rife that <keyword id="3778" type="PERSON" weightage="100" keywordseo="Karan-Johar">Karan Johar</keyword> will launch two more star kids in the upcoming sequel to his 2012 hit Student of the Year, which marked the debut of two star kids, Alia Bhatt and Varun Dhawan, along with a relatively unknown <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/We-tell-you-what-Katrina-Kaif-is-doing-with-Sidharth-Malhotra/articleshow/51210361.cms">Sidharth Malhotra</a>. 
 The star kids to be launched now are <keyword id="1859751" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="Ishaan-Khattar">Ishaan Khattar</keyword> and <keyword id="823990" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="Sara-Ali-Khan">Sara Ali Khan</keyword>, and while the latter’s name does ring (she is actor Saif Ali Khan’s daughter), Ishaan Khattar doesn’t have a popular surname, and has been mostly unheard of. Then, who is this lucky guy who is getting the best launch pad the entire industry can offer? 
 Ishaan Khattar, born to actress <keyword id="87662" type="PERSON" weightage="100" keywordseo="Neelima-Azim">Neelima Azim</keyword> and voice-over artist <keyword id="113410" type="PERSON" weightage="100" keywordseo="Rajesh-Khattar">Rajesh Khattar</keyword> in 1995, is the younger half-brother of Bollywood heartthrob <keyword id="6355887" type="PERSON" weightage="100" keywordseo="Shahid-Kapoor">Shahid Kapoor</keyword>, who was born to Neelima Azim and actor Pankaj Kapoor. For a brief period of time before he made his Bollywood debut with Ken Ghosh’s Ishq Vishk, Shahid was living with his mother and Rajesh Khattar, which is why he is said to be very close to Ishaan, who is 15 years younger to him. 
 
While Sara Ali Khan (born 1993) is known to have made only brief media appearances during her father’s <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/If-you-thought-only-TwinkleKhanna-and-Akshay-are-confessing-their-love-on-social-media-you-need-to-checkthese-pics/Saif-Ali-Khan-and-Kareena-Kapoor/slideshow/47691259.cms">marriage to actress Kareena Kapoor</a> and her aunt Soha Ali Khan’s marriage to actor Kunal Khemu, she did manage to look ravishing in a photo shoot she did for a popular magazine with her mother Amrita Singh, back in 2012. To date, she remains absent from the social media, and can only be seen in images shared by her father or brother Ibrahim Ali Khan. 
 
Ishaan, on the other hand, is active on social media, particularly on Instagram, where he keeps on sharing his images and dubsmash videos. Ishaan is known to be a trained dancer from Shiamak Davar's dance academy, the same place where his brother learned his killer moves, and has already started his training in movies by being an Assistant Director in films, as suggested by his Instagram posts. 
 
Talking of Instagram, here is a look at some of his best images and videos that the Khattar lad shared with the world, to convince you that Karan Johar has again managed to find someone who seems to have a bright future in the Bollywood industry, and it’s not just about the way he looks or dances, though we do have to applause him for his dancing skills that he even showed off during <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/Stop-everything-and-watch-Ishaan-and-Shahid-doing-the-Dhating-Naach/articleshow/48019852.cms">Shahid’s marriage to Mira Rajput</a> last year. Khattar, who comes across as committed to his fitness, can be seen doing various lifts and adventure sports, showing off his toned body and sculpted abs. Not to forget, his videos give you a glimpse into the many expressions that he can manage to bring out within seconds. 
 
Have a look!

Who is Ishaan Khattar and why is Karan Johar launching him

Horror! Horror! Horror! The earthquake returned to rattle Nepal and parts of India, China and Afghanistan. Tuesday afternoon witnessed a series of movers and shakers, which was far less in losses and causalities than its disastrous prequel 2 weeks back, but it scared the hell out of people. 
 
No wonder, the word #earthquake started trending on Twitter soon after the tremors reached India because everyone, including our celebs and politicians, were busy tweeting their worries and prayers on the micro-blogging site. Here is what they posted.

Nepal Earthquake: This is how
the who’s who of Twitteratti reacted to the Nepal Earthquake today

Right from cricket legends Sachin Tendular, Virat Kohli, and MS Dhoni, acting talents Shah Rukh Khan, Anushka Sharma, and Arjun Kapoor to singing stars like Sonu Nigam and Yo Yo Honey Singh—no celeb shied away from showing their eternal love for their moms this <keyword id="6408068" type="ENTERTAINMENT" weightage="100" keywordseo="Mothers-Day">Mother's Day</keyword>. While most of the celebs posted pictures of themselves with their moms and wrote a Thank You note as the caption, the otherwise aggressive-on-the-field Virat left a touching Mother’s Day video message for all the mothers in the world on his Facebook wall. 
 
The man who did it differently was Shah Rukh Khan, who has been ruling billions of hearts for more than two decades now. For him, the eve before Mothers’ day was quite an emotional one as he was missing his father. He posted a picture of himself and both his sons on his Facebook wall and wrote, “Maybe I couldn’t be… but I hope I can raise them to be like my father. I miss him…a day before Mother’s Day.” 
 
To know how other celebs showed their love for their mothers on Facebook, have a look below.
