    Healing romances might just be what most of us need as we deal with the stresses of our day-to-day lives and everything that’s going on around us in the world. This one follows hotel manager Shen Xi Fan, who is a workaholic suffering from insomnia and migraine. She meets Chinese medicine doctor He Su Ye, who could have the solution to her problems.

    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.

    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.
