    Sure, we love a pair of huge chaandbaalis, or long chandelier earrings, or statement jhumkas, or even hoops the size of bangles. But there’s something super chic about studs. Not only are they super elegant, but they won’t torture your earlobes unlike most earrings. If you are a bridesmaid-to-be, chances are that you are planning to wear heavy earrings for a bunch of consecutive days. In which case, you might want to switch things up a little, and wear studs one of these days, just to give your earlobes a much needed break. And just because they won’t swing with you when you're on the dance floor, doesn’t mean they’re not fun!

    For Manifest to become one of Cambridge Dictionary's most viewed words of 2024 — 1,30,000 hits and counting — it means some of us must have Googled it at least once. I know, I hit that search button over and over again
    because each time I looked at it, I saw a new meaning.

    Putting together a homegrown title at a time when the demise of print has been long announced may seem surprising...
    ...but it has long been a dream of mine to give India a magazine it deserves. A magazine that is the country.

    Chairperson RPSG Lifestyle Media

    And nothing, absolutely nothing, represents India more than our weddings.It is a time when families are brought together. Traditions come alive as they are adapted to each couple's beliefs. And lives are joined in a way that the romantic in me still enjoys.

    The fact that it comes with band, baaja and baraat — what's not to love?And that is the reason our first issue celebrates:
    THE NEW BRIDE.
