Ever since England humbled India at home last year, there has existed some needle between the two. The administrators have crossed swords over DRS and IPL windows, Twitter has been a battleground for fans, even former players have had uncharitable things to say in commentary boxes ... but the real deal between India and England will be on later, played out during the Indian winter.

India Vs England Yuvraj & Broad
Still, it would have helped if their Twenty20 on Sunday were more than a glorified warm-up match. Both the sides have made it to the next round, and this game is of no consequence to anybody's fortune in this tournament. India will be the more thankful side for it. Of all the strong teams so far, India are the only one who kept their lesser opponents interested. Their bowling and fielding are in shambles, and this match gives them three extra hours to try to figure out a combination or a method that inspires more trust.

If India are built on strong and long (at least on paper) batting and an army of part-timers, England have invested in specialists: five (at least, so far) solid bowlers and just enough batsmen. It will be a slightly different test for England's bowlers when they come up against a much stronger India batting line-up. It will be an interesting clash of T20 philosophies but without the tension that a meaningful match in a world event should bring.

Watch out for
Stuart Broad and Yuvraj Singh were two completely different players five years and four days ago when Yuvraj hit Broad for six sixes in an over. Broad has gone on to become a champion player of a champion Test side, and has also won a World Twenty20. Yuvraj has realised a lifelong dream of winning a World Cup, and while his Test career has not gone anywhere he has won a bigger fight. Broad had his own back when he triggered a collapse with the wicket of Yuvraj in a Test-turning spell - that included a hat-trick - at Trent Bridge. Now that they face each other again, expect a lot of hits for the youtube videos of the sixes and the hat-tricks.

Zaheer Khan has been hailed as the "Sachin Tendulkar of Indian bowling" by MS Dhoni, and rightly so. In fact between Anil Kumble's retirement and the World Cup last year, Zaheer was the Tendulkar of the '90s: if he failed, the whole bowling unit disintegrated. However, Zaheer - like Tendulkar - now faces serious calls for retirement from at least one of the formats so that he can continue to be the bowler he was until last year's World Cup. Mohammad Shahzad and Mohammad Nabi of Afghanistan treated him with disdain, and if other sides can do the same, it will have a demoralising effect that India are not unfamiliar with.

Team news:
England have got a good thing going with their line-up, and wouldn't want to fiddle around too much. Depending on the conditions, Tim Bresnan could replace Samit Patel.
England (possible): Craig Kieswetter (wk), 2 Alex Hales, 3 Luke Wright, 4 Eoin Morgan, 5 Jonny Bairstow, 6 Jos Buttler, 7 Samit Patel/Tim Bresnan, 8 Stuart Broad (capt), 9 Graeme Swann, 10 Steven Finn, 11 Jade Dernbach

Dhoni indicated India will make a changes with this being an inconsequential match. What changes, he didn't say. It is against Dhoni's conservative mindset to play five bowlers, so it is more likely that either Harbhajan Singh or Ashok Dinda might replace one of the faltering quicks. Dhoni, though, might want to give Zaheer some more time in the middle.

India (possible): 1 Virender Sehwag, 2 Gautam Gambhir, 3 Virat Kohli, 4 Yuvraj Singh, 5 Suresh Raina, 6 Rohit Sharma, 7 MS Dhoni (capt &wk), 8 R Ashwin, 9 Irfan Pathan, 10 Zaheer Khan, 11 L Balaji/Ashok Dinda/Harbhajan Singh.

Pitch and conditions:
The R Premadasa pitch used for the England-Afghanistan game was an interesting one, with variable bounce looking threatening early on, but England still found enough value for their shots. An evening start might mean some assistance for bowlers, which England should like. Weather websites predict scattered thunderstorms, but it takes a lot of rain to rule out a five-over game.

Stats and trivia:
Dhoni has captained India in 33 T20Is, the most for anybody.
Graeme Swann has conceded 28 sixes, and Broad 25. They are fourth and sixth on the list. It is not necessarily a bad sign: the top 10 features Saeed Ajmal and Shahid Afridi too. For India, Yusuf Pathan has been hit for a six the most: 22 times.

Quotes:
"It is easier to go after a bowler. If you look at his performances he should get equal respect that Sachin gets. He is the Sachin for us when it comes to the bowling department. He has led our attack for the last few years; he has been our best bowler whatever the format. Maybe in the last few games he has not got the wickets whether it be Test cricket, ODIs or T20."

As expected, the release date of Pawan Kalyan-starrer Cameraman Ganga tho Rambabu (CGTR) has been pushed back to October 18 - its original date. The film's release was initially planned for October 18 but was advanced to October 11 and has now been pushed back to October 18. Producer Danayya said that he's planning for a grand release with maximum number screens worldwide.

It was widely speculated that the film's audio launch will not take place and the songs will be directly released into the market. However, the makers are now strongly considering an audio function and an official announcement on this would be made soon.

Cameraman Ganga tho Rambabu Pawan Kalyan & Tamanna
The talkie part of the film has been completed and director Puri Jagannadh is currently wrapping up the final song, which is being shot at Annapurna Studios. Tamannaah is playing Pawan's love interest and Mani Sharma is providing the soundtrack.

'Cameraman Ganga Tho Rambabu' to be wrapped up by Sep 20
Producer DVV Danayya informs the world that 'Cameraman Ganga Tho Rambabu' is all done but three songs of the film is still left to finish. "A song is currently being filmed in a huge set erected at Padmalaya Studios. The remaining two songs will be filmed by Sep 20. We will release the audio in the third week of the September, 2012. The movie will be released worldwide on Oct 11," says DVV .
Music by Mani Sharma is a one of the awaited albums.
Besides Pawan and Tamanna in the title roles, the film sees Gabriel (Brazillian model) and Prakash Raj in key roles. Kota, Tanikella, Brahmanandam, Ali, MS, Dharmavarapu are part of the cast. So loads of comedy is guaranteed, besides Pawan's self-styled comedy.

Photography is by Chota K Naidu. Editing is by SR Sekhar. Fights are by Vijay AND Stills are by Maganti Sai.

"No audio function for Pawan Kalyan’s CGR"
The audio songs of power star Pawan Kalyan's forthcoming film Cameraman Ganga tho Rambabu will be directing hitting the market on September 24, sans an audio function. Sources say that Pawan Kalyan has not given the nod for a grand audio release till now, and the chances of the actor giving the green signal for the ceremony are also bleak.

Cameraman Ganga Tho Rambabu music release in September
Telugu star Pawan Kalyan's work in progress Cameraman Ganga Tho Rambabu will have its music launch in mid-September.

The film, co-starring actress Tamannaah who is also appearing in the remake of Himmatwala with Ajay Devgn, will be released on October 11, a week later than it was meant to.

Cameraman Ganga Tho Rambabu is among the most anticipated films of the year. Pawan Kalyan already has a blockbuster to his name this year with Gabbar Singh, a remake of Salman Khan'sDabnagg.

Gabbar Singh shattered Telugu box office records and all eyes are on Pawan Kalyan, younger brother of superstar Chiranjeevi, to see if he can score a second strike.

The first look of Cameraman Ganga Tho Rambabu may be released on Pawan Kalyan's birthday, which is on September 2.

Cameraman Ganga Tho Rambabu audio on Sep 24....,?
The audio songs launch ceremony of Pawan Kalyan's Cameraman Ganga Tho Rambabu has been pushed to September 24. Although, there's no official announcement in this connection, sources close to the production house inform that the makers are aiming for the film's audio launch on the above date. Reports further add that megastar Chiranjeevi will not be available for the audio, had it been on September 21, as a result, the makers have postponed the audio release of Cameraman Ganga Tho Rambabu.

So mega fans need to wait for some more time to see the Chiranjeevi and Pawan Kalyan sharing the stage. The last time they shared the podium was for Gabbar Singh audio earlier this year. Mani Sarma has composed the music and Baba Sehgal's song Power song on Pawan Kalyan has also been added to the track list. Tamannaah is playing the female lead in this film, which also stars Prakash Raj, Kota Srinivasa Rao, Ali etc. The film, directed by Puri Jagannath, is gearing up for a grand release on October 11.

Mamata Banerjee Quits UPA....,
The Congress-led UPA government is in a minority and its immediate task is to ensure survival. It has been forced to scrounge for numbers by ally Mamata Banerjee, who announced yesterday that she was exiting the UPA government in protest against a menu of new reforms introduced last week. Congress president Sonia Gandhi is meeting top party leaders right now to take stock of the new crisis the government has been plunged into.
  
Congress sources say Mamata Banerjee's decision needs a political call as the new situation threatens the government. The Congress core group - which includes the PM, AK Antony, Ahmed Patel and P Chidambaram - has several points to ponder on as it meets at the PM's 7 Race Course Road residence. Two of Mamata Banerjee's ministers are headed to Delhi right now. As she announced her divorce with the UPA yesterday, Ms Banerjee seemed to leave some room for compromise - she said her six ministers will resign only on Friday.

Mamata Banerjee 

Sources in the Congress say that party president Sonia Gandhi will try to negotiate that compromise by reasoning with the Manmohan Singh government. Mamata Banerjee wants the government to withdraw a diesel price hike and a restriction on the supply of subsidised cooking gas and wants a decision to open up India's huge retail sector to foreign super-chains like Wal-Mart rolled back.  Ms Banerjee described those decisions as "a disaster for the poor" and said her party had been shown minimal respect by the UPA. While there will be no reversal of the retail reforms, sources say, the government may agree to a partial rollback in diesel prices, along with increasing the cap on LPG cylinders from six to nine per year. Mamata Banerjee says she wants it increased to 24.
The Prime Minister has, according to sources, driven home the point that he is committed to the reforms needed to jumpstart the economy; he allegedly told senior ministers that their government "must stay the course" and that it has "an unfinished agenda" for the economy for which it will allow "like-minded people" to help. 

As a political party the Congress, sources say, is of the view that mid-term elections must be avoided as polls are costly. The party wants to now look for support from partners that can provide stability and help it complete its term. Congress leader Digvijaya Singh though said today that if push comes to shove, his party is ready to face early elections. "People do select the government for five years. If the government does not complete its tenure, then we are ready for mid-term polls," he said.

Mamata Banerjee is the Congress' biggest ally in the UPA with 19 MPs. The DMK, which follows close behind with 18 MPs, five of whom are ministers, is also now said to be dithering over its next step. Sources in the Southern party, which has 18 Lok Sabha MPs, say that the DMK has decided "not to embarrass the UPA" and that its course will not be affected by Ms Banerjee's pull-out last night. The party, will however, participate in a bandh called tomorrow to protest against the Centre's decisions last week. Sources said this morning that a section of the DMK wants to quit over these reforms, but that the party is hopeful that Sonia Gandhi will stage an intervention. 

Before it decided to implement 51% Foreign Direct Investment or FDI in retail, the government had calculated its political risks. Ms Banerjee has 19 Lok Sabha MPs. Mulayam Singh Yadav and his Samajwadi Party, who provide external support to the UPA, have 22. Ms Mayawati and her Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) have another 21. So though the UPA is in a minority without the Trinamool Congress, it can be propped up by Mr Yadav and Ms Mayawati. 

With the support of Mulayam Singh Yadav and Mayawati, the UPA would still have more than 300 MPs on its side. It needs 272 to stay in power. But the government will now be more vulnerable to demands from those partners, who are both opposed to FDI in retail.

Mulayam Singh Yadav, who landed in Delhi on Tuesday night and plans to meet with the Left and other parties to gauge their reaction to the UPA's new position, is already playing hard to get. "Don't take us for granted," warned his party's Ram Gopal Yadav after Ms Banerjee's announcement yesterday. Today Mulayam Singh Yadav said Samajwadi Party's Parliamentary Board will meet tomorrow to decide its future course of action. Mr Yadav is also taking part, along with the Left and the BJP, in a nationwide bandh or strike tomorrow against the Centre's new policies.   

The Congress is now said to be looking at Mayawati's Bahujan Samaj Party and some Independents as its best bet to keep it in a majority in the Lok Sabha. Sources in Mayawati's party say she will decide on her relationship with the UPA at a meeting of her party on October 9. The BSP has voiced demands very similar to Mamata Banerjee's - a rollback in diesel prices and on the new norms for LPG. It also wants the government to withdraw the decision on FDI in retail. But unlike Ms Banerjee or Mr Yadav, who are riding recent electoral successes and would not mind mid-term elections to extend their gains, Ms Mayawati is still smarting from her defeat in Uttar Pradesh this year and she will not want early polls since she is unlikely to make too many gains.

Mamata- The RebeL:
In the last quarter of a century, one state each from the East, North and South of the country has contributed a woman leader each to the centrestage of Indian politics. A Didi, a Behenji and an Amma.
The parties headed by these women have proved to be strange bedfellows as far as coalition politics is concerned. Women are from Venus and it was never easy to predict the turns the mercurial Mamata Banerjee, Mayawati or Jayalalitha would take when the alliance they were a part of was at a critical juncture. Even in the last few days, after announcing a long deadline of 72 hours, Mamata kept everyone guessing on her next step in case Delhi did not pay heed to her demands.
Mamata Banerjee Latest news quits UPA Biography Images/Photos Pictures Government Congress
Mamata Banerjee Latest news

Only Mayawati has made her wish public to be the Prime Minister of the country. The other two, no doubt, are confident enough that they are ‘PM material’. Apart from this, the trio has many things in common. They are the single point power centres and sole star campaigners of their respective parties. They seldom allow voices of dissent within the party. In the case of Mayawati and Jayalalitha they are also the lone public voice of the party. Mamata at least allows people like Mukul Roy or Kunal Ghosh to explain the party position.
Maybe because of the polyester blended textile, one can never see Behenji in a crushed salwar - kameez. But for the bullet-proof shield she wears, Amma is one of the most well-dressed politicians in the country. She has a good sense of colour, if not of humour. In terms of articulation, Amma is one the best. Like Prakash Karat, Amma also is very particular about speaking in full sentences. Behenji’s hindi has its rustic charm. Accent is only one aspect, it is difficult to decipher Didi’s words.
Jayalalitha and Mayawati even while in opposition or as chief ministers, seldom walked on the streets of their respective states, for an election campaign or for leading an agitation. On the contrary, Mamata is always on the streets, when she was fighting the Left and now even while she is the chief minister. She is always in agitation mode.

All the three leaders love to dictate terms - within the party and within the coalition. Mamata came to the hot seat in Writers Building, literally fighting the Left.
These are times when chief ministers are working overnight to create an image for themselves as modern and sophisticated. It was a common joke in Kerala that the present chief minister Ommen Chandy would deliberately tear his shirt here and there and often forget to comb his hair - to create an impression of being simple. These days we see Chandy in well-starched,well-pressed shirts and hair well-combed.
The way Mamata carries herself in the crushed cotton saree speaks eloquently of the rebel in her. Though she can’t stand cartoons taking a dig at her, Mamata has an artist in her: she paints, writes poems and songs for children. The hawai chappal and the old Fiat on which she used to come to Parliament are symbols of the carefully maintained simplicity, to be identified as one of the masses.

Almost 15 months have passed and Mamata is yet to change the attire of a fighter to that of a ruler. Bengal was always a problem-rich state. The condition remains the same. Non-performanace of Mamata as an administrator is one more in its bouquet of problems. When she is always in the fighting mode, where is the time to sit down and think of the needs of the state?
With not much fight left in the Left who are in shambles in Bengal, Mamata has extended her fight to Delhi - with the Congress as her new adversary. Now she has decided to withdraw support to UPA 2. Fighting with Delhi is a culture Mamata has inherited from her arch enemies, the Left. If the UPA - Left alliance lasted for more than four years, the Congress - Mamata marriage was over in three and a half years. If the UPA 1 was unable to proceed with many reform-oriented legislations due to objections raised by the Left, UPA 2 went ahead with crucial decisions in terms of policy forcing Mamata withdraw support.

If Congress’ political managers during the UPA1 found it difficult to understand the plans of the Left, Mamata has proved an equally unpredictable and costly ally in the UPA2. What next for Mamata in Delhi? She is now saying the UPA will last for three to six months only. One has to wait for things to evolve, considering the fact that six months is too long a period in politics.

Zimbabwe adequately prepared for the challenge - Taylor
Brendan Taylor, the Zimbabwe captain, said a lack of match practice will not be an obstacle to success in the World Twenty20, ahead of their first match - the tournament opener against Sri Lanka in Hambantota. Zimbabwe have not played any international cricket since their tour of New Zealand in February, but Taylor said practice matches among the Zimbabwe squad and an unofficial tri-series against South Africa and Bangladesh had been adequate preparation.
"I don't think a lack of matches will hinder us," Taylor said. "We have enough players back home to choose from and have played some competitive matches amongst us. Our training camp was really good. We had good success against South Africa and Bangladesh in an unofficial tri-series in Harare two months ago. So no excuses, we're all in good form. Obviously a bigger stage now, and it's time to come out and perform."
Zimbabwe defeated a South Africa XI that included Richard Levi, Hashim Amla and Lonwabo Tsotsobe among others, to win the tri-series in Harare in June. The hosts won four out of five matches in the tournament, defeating both other teams twice. However, they lost both their World Twenty20 warm up matches, going down to Ireland by 54 runs and to Bangladesh by five wickets.
"It's not ideal, but we were trying out different combinations, so we didn't have our strongest side out there. We were outplayed by Ireland and Bangladesh, but our first game is what's important and we've prepared well for that. There're no excuses."

Sri Lanka Vs Zimbabwe 

Taylor said that although Zimbabwe were glad to be playing Sri Lanka in a venue less familiar to the home side than the grounds in Colombo and Pallekele, the conditions would take his own side some getting used to as well.
"We know Sri Lanka probably rather be at the R Premadasa Stadium or in Pallekele," he said. "This is new for all three teams [South Africa, being the third team]. We don't know what really to expect. We know we're on a really big field, and with the wind blowing, and we're not really used to that. It will make it tough to score in certain areas."

"Looking at the wicket it doesn't look like it will turn a lot. But we have three spinners who will bowl well even on wickets that don't turn a lot. Sri Lanka will have very good spinners too, but it's not just down to spin. You have to control 90% of the game to come out on top."
Taylor said Zimbabwe had also prepared specifically for Lasith Malinga's bowling, and were confident of defusing the threat he posed. "We've talked about [Malinga] a lot. He's a threat to anyone, really, but he's only human. He can have a good day or a bad day. He's someone we've monitored closely and tried to replicate certain aspects of his bowling in practice sessions. We've all faced him before so he's not too unfamiliar."
Latest News @ Ground:-
ToSS: Zimbabwe has Won the Toss and Choose to Field First
Brendan Taylor hopes to make some early inroads in fresh conditions. He says they are playing two spinners. Mahela Jayawardene doesn't mind batting first. Says runs on the board are always good. Ajnatha Mendis comes back for them. Dilshan Munwaweera makes debut. Keeping in with the honourable Sri Lankan tradition of long names, his Munaweera's initials expand to Eldeniya Medagedara Dilshan Yasika Munaweera.
6.55pm It's a cool evening in Hambantota, which can get really windy at times, especially with no cover around the ground to block the wind. The pitch has a covering of grass on. "Not a green top," says Sanjay Manjrekar, just one with an even bit of green
6.45pm As we wait for the toss, let's just list the fun things we have lined up for you. First making its comeback is Cricinfo Fantasy making a roaring comeback. You still have 15 minutes to register a team. If you do it any later, you will lose out on scoring in the first game.
Apart from that, David Hopps, Abhsihek Purohit and Andrew Fernando will bring you all the news, analysis, features, interviews and everything else from Sri Lanka. There will be a lot of multimedia stuff too, including free live streaming of every match in USA and the Two Chucks
6.30pm We won't have any fancy opening ceremony to declare the games open tonight, but this, the fourth edition of World Twenty20, will open in an hour's time with hosts Sri Lanka taking on Zimbabwe, two sides that used to be at around the same level in early '90s. A big hello and welcome then
This game will be a big test of how popular this tournament will be, being played as it is at one of the more remote cricketing venues in the world

'Favourites despite history of losses in finals' - Jayawardene

South Africa may be the perennial underachievers at major tournaments, but two days after AB de Villiersconfronted the chokers tag head on, the 'C' word was uttered again, this time by Mahela Jayawardene on the eve of his side's first group match. It has been a question thrown to him repeatedly in the lead up to the World Twenty20. Three major finals in five years, yet no trophies. Is there a pattern to Sri Lanka's failures at the final hurdle? Are they simply buckling under pressure?
Based merely on statistics, it might appear that way. In the last five world tournaments, Sri Lanka have been one of the most consistent sides, with a semi-final exit to go with the three sets of runners-up medals. Since 2007, only Pakistan have played four semi-finals. Sri Lanka were talked up as serious contenders from the start in each tournament in which they made it to the final. It suggests they have played well through the tournaments but failed to perform in the finals, none of which have been close. 


Sri Lanka Vs Zimbabwe icc t20 world cup 2012 live scorecard Star Cricket Streaming Latest News
Sri Lanka Vs Zimbabwe Latest News
But beyond the numbers, there is truth to the notion that Sri Lanka have simply been outplayed by better sides in the crunch encounters. In 2007, Australia still had Matthew Hayden and Glenn McGrath in their ranks, and Adam Gilchrist unleashed a furious 149 in Bridgetown. Pakistan surged late in 2009 World Twenty20, and Shahid Afridi shone with the bat after Mohammed Amir and Abdul Razzak had bowled brilliantly. Last year, Gautam Gambhir and MS Dhoni orchestrated a near-perfect chase. In each of those matches there was no major failing on Sri Lanka's part, no significant dip in performance - they were simply bested by extraordinary cricket from the other team. 


"A lot of people have asked us whether we've choked in the finals," Jayawardene said. "But I'd rather be in that position that getting knocked out in the first round or second round. We're doing some thing pretty good in these big tournaments. We're handling pressure well and getting into those situations where we can win the tournaments."



This time, with the World T20 being played at home, the expectations have been more intense. Already Sri Lanka are being tagged as favourites, perhaps in the absence of any other side that fits the bill better. South Africa may be the best team in the world, but they are yet to win a big tournament; India have a perceived weakness in their bowling attack as Pakistan have in their batting; Australia have hit a low in the rankings; West Indies are unproven against stiff opposition and England have recently been abysmal in the subcontinent. All this has heaped pressure on the hosts, and though the line most often trotted out by captains is that everyone has an equal chance in Twenty20, George Orwell might retort that one side's chances are more equal than the rest. 


While most teams have downplayed their chances and stressed the fickleness of the format, Sri Lanka seem more comfortable with the pressure. "We're one of the favourites. We're part of a pack and if we can get good momentum, we could go all the way," Jayawardene said. "We can't play the hype down because we are playing at home. Sri Lanka is a cricket crazy country and the expectations will be high. We have to accept that."


The first step is entry into the Super Eights, and a victory over Zimbabwe in their first match will go a long way in ensuring that. Sri Lanka may have preferred all their matches to be in more familiar Colombo or Pallekele, but they must deal with a trickier venue in Hambantota, which has hosted low-scorers in the past. 


"The first time we played in Hambantota, it was tough for us on the newly-relaid pitch," Jayawardene said. "The wind is a bit of a factor as well - it can pick up in the afternoon and evenings so you need to adjust for that. We've played a bit of cricket here, so we'll try and make use of this advantage with the conditions."


The World Twenty20 has never been won by its host nation. Over the next three weeks, Jayawardene's men will hope to reverse two trends.

In 1984, when she was 14 years old, Padma was in a car accident in Malibu, California, causing an injury to her right arm that required surgery, which left a 7-inch scar between her elbow and shoulder. The incident happened on a Sunday afternoon as Padma was being driven home from a Hindu temple in Malibu. She remembers a flash of orange, looking over to see the large car upon her. Padma describes the event in the April 2001 edition of Vogue, saying, "Being in a car crash was like an exhilarating hallucination, an unbelievable moment that oddly remains one of the most beautiful images in my memory." The car left Padma with injuries that included a fractured right hip and a shattered upper right arm.

"Padma Lakshmi nearly 'bursts out' of her dress"
Padma Lakshmi barely managed to stay covered when she recently appeared at an event in a dress, which was a size too small for her. The 42-year-old model, who is mainly known for her impeccable style, had worn a floor length strapless flesh coloured dress that was a bit tight for her at the red carpet of the 2012 Creative Arts Emmy Awards in Los Angeles.
The American Indian actress tried her best to flaunt her womanly curves in the dress with silk lacing details, exposing small sections of her back.
The mother-of-one wore her loosely curled hair back in a ponytail, kept her make-up simple and opted to wear a pair of small diamond earrings.

Padma later congratulated director Dan Savage on Twitter.
"Congrats to the governors award Emmy winners for their "it gets better" video movement: Dan Savage and Terry Miller!" the Daily Mail quoted Padma as tweeting.
The former wife of Sir Ahmed Salman Rushdie also posted a picture of herself and comic Kathy Griffin to her Twitter page, which was captioned- "Me and my Ginger homey."

Padma Lakshmi scores a rare fashion miss as tight dress struggles to contain her curves at the Creative Arts Emmys
She rarely puts a foot wrong whenever she steps out on the red carpet as she is arguably one of the most stylish women on television.
But last night (Saturday) at The Academy Of Television Arts & Sciences 2012 Creative Arts Emmy Awards that wasn't the case for Padma Lakshmi.
The 42-year-old failed to show off her usually flawless stylish ways when she took to the main event in a dress that appeared to be a size too small.

The rear of the dress was brought together with silk lacing detail which exposed small sections of her back.

Padma Lakshmi Thinks You're Weak for Liking White-Wine Spritzers

Despite the popularity of white-wine spritzers, one celebrity does not support enjoying a glass. Top Chef host Padma Lakshmi made her feelings on spritzers, men drinking wine, and luxury wines known to Esquire, in some choice (and not so choice) words. 
Lakshmi, who is working with Sterling Vineyards in Napa Valley, Calif., on its Ultimate Host competition, talked with Esquire writer Matt Goulet about wines. Want to drink like Lakshmi? Her opinions from the interview, below: 
• (When asked about men drinking wine) "I'm in favor of it. I think wine is such a big universe that it's kind of like food — it's intimidating to a lot of people, myself included. But if you approach it wine by wine, and if you like a wine that you drink, now with your phone, it's so easy. Just take a picture of the label. You learn about it. You learn where it comes from and what the soil is like and why you like it. And that'll lead you to another wine."
"You can't drink [wine] alone. It's all very subjective. Wine, like food, is so emotional. If you think about it, so much of the courting ritual is surrounded by wine and food. There's a built-in romance to wine." 
• (When asked if a bottle of wine can win a woman over) "It can speed up the process. I don't think just any bottle of wine. But it helps. It's not a miracle-worker."
• (When asked how she feels about white-wine spritzers) "No. That's a real pussy drink. And I don't mean that in a good way."

'Padma Lakshmi says she needs a dress for Emmys'

She was stunning in a hot pink Monique Lhuillier dress and matching lipstick Saturday night at the designer's show during Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week, but "Top Chef" host Padma Lakshmi said she's still in the market for an outfit to wear to the Emmy Awards.
"I am shopping for dresses," she said, adding that her main priority is comfort.
"Do I feel good in it? Do I feel comfortable? No matter how good you look in a dress, if you're not comfortable, it's going to show."

She said she felt great in her Lhiullier dress, which, although it fit her perfectly, had plenty of stretch.
"It feels kind of like I'm wearing a soft wet suit," she said.
Lakshmi was in good humor when a reporter repeatedly mispronounced her name on camera before the show.
"That is some funny [stuff]," she said with a laugh.

"Four Glasses of Wine with Padma Lakshmi"

On the 38th floor of the Empire State Building, Top Chef host Padma Lakshmi has set out four bottles of Sterling Vineyards wine. Lakshmi is working with Sterling Vineyards on their Ultimate Host competition.
PADMA LAKSHMI: I'm not going to be drinking — well, except for today, because this is work. But other than today, I'm not going to be drinking much until the Emmys. But if Top Chef wins, I expect a huge barrel of something. Sterling also does the Emmys. Too bad they can't get the voters drunk, so they don't vote for Amazing Race anymore. [Sighs] But we digress. We digress.

Instagram may have been cluttered with pictures of angry New York storm clouds on Saturday evening, and the tents were no less crowded at Monique Lhuillier’s show. Odette Annable benefited from a particularly majestic piece of scheduling that had her at Lincoln Center for Hervé Léger in the tents during the afternoon and then back for Monique Lhuillier at night, with pretty much the entire crazy storm system coming and going in between. “That is lucky, because there was a full-on tornado going on out there. It’s wild,” she marveled. And it’s even more fortuitous because she was clad in a sleek white dress that would have turned a wee bit pornographic if it had been drenched. Apparently, even Mother Nature respects a girl’s need for privacy.

Though this is her second fashion week, Annable balked at being called a fashionista – “That term freaks me out!” – but based on what we heard her tell a reporter, we think she has this whole thing figured out: pre-show wine, a hair and makeup crew, and loud music. “It’s all about having a good time,” she said. “This whole thing is so dreamy.” She also said it was a blast deciding which of her three Lhuillier options to wear, and credited hubby Dave Annable (from Brothers and Sisters, and the upcoming 666 Park Avenue) with helping her sift through everything: “I showed him a couple looks, and he was like, ‘Okay, go with that one, and that one.’ He was actually helpful.” And also apparently correct, because she looked like a million bucks. That is a valuable commodity in a guy smart lady.

Annable had a weirdly difficult time getting to her seat, thanks to some foreign journalists who were obsessed with getting her photo holding their talisman. One of them jammed a red and white stuffed devil into her hand and then started snapping her picture, while she confusedly— but politely, and very gamely posed with it for them. Later, we saw the same group approach Padma Lakshmi with the same request, and Padma seemed even more perplexed— and, frankly, kind of awkward and (beautifully) annoyed about the whole thing. 

Luckily, a nearby TV reporter gracefully intercepted on her behalf, pretended to need to talk to her, and then smoothly blocked out the Plushie-Pushers. It was so well done that we’re pretty sure she owes him at least a couple of cocktails. He’s going to have to fight for her attention, though. When Padma came out from backstage – all flowery dress and flowing hair and gorgeous Padma-ness – the dude behind us leaned forward. “Who is that?” he wondered. We explained, and he leaned back and shook his head, admiringly. “Padma,” he repeated. “No shit.” Get in line, buddy.

Why do we Celebrate Ganesh Chaturthi ?
Also Called as Vinayaka Chavithi....,
Ganesh Chaturthi is celebrated on the birthday of Lord Ganesh (Ganesha), the god of wisdom and prosperity on the fourth day of the moons bright fortnight, or period from new moon in the lunar month of Bhadrapada. The celebration of Ganesh Chaturthi continue for five, seven, or ten days. Some even stretch it to twenty one days, but ten the most popularly celebrated. In the tradition of the right hand path the first day is the most important. In the left hand path tradition the final day is most important.

Ganesh Chaturthi 
Ganesha is the god of wisdom and prosperity and is invoked before the beginning of any auspicious work by the Hindus. It is believed that for the fulfillment of one's desires, his blessing is absolutely necessary. According to the mythology, he is the son of Shiva and Parvati, brother of Kartikeya - the general of the gods, Lakshmi - the goddess of wealth and Saraswati-the goddess of learning. There are numerous stories in Hindu mythology, associated with the birth of this elephant-headed god, whose vehicle is the Mooshak or rat and who loves Modaks (droplet shaped Indian sweet).

   Legend has it that Parvati created Ganesha out of the sandalwood dough that she used for her bath and breathed life into him. Letting him stand guard at the door she went to have her bath. When her husband, Shiva returned, the child who had never seen him stopped him. Shiva severed the head of the child and entered his house. Parvati, learning that her son was dead, was distraught and asked Shiva to revive him. Shiva cut off the head of an elephant and fixed it on the body of Ganesha.

   Another tale tells of how one day the Gods decided to choose their leader and a race was to be held between the brothers- Kartikeya and Ganesh. Whoever took three rounds of the earth first would be made the Ganaadhipati or the leader. Kartikeya seated on a peacock as his vehicle, started off for the test. Ganesh was given a rat, which moved swiftly. Ganesh realised that the test was not easy, but he would not disobey his father. He reverently paid obeisance to his parents and went around them three times and thus completed the test before Kartikeya. He said, " my parents pervade the whole universe and going around them, is more than going round the earth." Everybody was pleasantly surprised to hear Ganesha's logic and intelligence and hence he came to be known as the Ganaadhipati or leader, now referred to as Ganpati.

Ganesha Symbolism

   There is also a story behind the symbolic snake, rat and the singular tusk. During one of his birthdays, His mother, Parvati, cooked for him twenty-one types of delicious food and a lot of sweet porridge. Ganesha ate so much that even his big belly could not contain it. Mounting his little mouse, he embarked on his nightly rounds. His mouse suddenly stumbled upon seeing a huge snake. To adjust His belly, Ganesha put the snake on as a belt around his stomach. All of a sudden, he heard laughter emanating form the sky.

   He looked up and saw the moon mocking him. Ganesha infuriated, broke off one of his tusks and hurled it at the moon. Parvati, seeing this, immediately cursed the moon that whoever looks at it on Ganesh Chaturthi will be accused of a wrong doing. The symbology behind the mouse and snake and Ganesha's big belly and its relationship to the moon on his birthday is highly philosophic. The whole cosmos is known to be the belly of Ganesha. Parvati is the primordial energy. The seven realms above, seven realms below and seven oceans, are inside the cosmic belly of Ganesha, held together by the cosmic energy (kundalini ) symbolized as a huge snake which Ganesha ties around Him. The mouse is nothing but our ego. Ganesha, using the mouse as a vehicle, exemplifies the need to control our ego. One who has controlled the ego has Ganesha consciousness or God-consciousness.

Ganesh Chaturthi Celebrations:

   The festival of Ganesh Chaturthi is celebrated the states of Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh and many other parts of India. Started by Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaja, the great Maratha ruler, to promote culture and nationalism, the festival was revived by Lokmanya Tilak (a freedom fighter) to spread the message of freedom struggle and to defy the British who had banned public assemblies. The festival gave the Indians a feeling of unity and revived their patriotic spirit and faith. This public festival formed the background for political leaders who delivered speeches to inspire people against the Western rule. The festival is so popular that the preparations begin months in advance.

Ganesh Chaturthi Celebrations

   Ganesha statues installed in street corners and in homes, and elaborate arrangements are made for lighting, decoration, mirrors and the most common of flowers. Poojas (prayer services) are performed daily. The artists who make the idols of Ganesh compete with each other to make bigger and more magnificent and elegant idols. The relevantly larger ones are anything from 10 meters to 30 meters in height. These statues are then carried on decorated floats to be immersed in the sea after one, three, five, seven and ten days. Thousands of processions converge on the beaches to immerse the holy idols in the sea. This procession and immersion is accompanied by drum- beats, devotional songs and dancing.

It is still forbidden to look at the moon on that day as the moon had laughed at Ganesha when he fell from his vehicle, the rat. With the immersion of the idol amidst the chanting of "Ganesh Maharaj Ki Jai!" (Hail Lord Ganesh). The festival ends with pleas to Ganesha to return the next year with chants of "Ganpati bappa morya, pudcha varshi laukar ya" (Hail Lord Ganesh, return again soon next year.
