By

The #MeToo wave was one of the prominent things to happen in Bollywood this year. After Tanushree Dutta recounted the ordeal of how she was allegedly harassed on the sets of Horn Ok! Pleass by Nana Patekar, women from various fields came forward and narrated tales of how they were subjected to humiliation, unsolicited sexual advances and torture from everyone. At a recent round-table conference, actresses like Deepika Padukone, Alia Bhatt, Taapsee Pannu, Tabu, Alia Bhatt and Anushka Sharma were talking about the topic of #MeToo. Rani Mukerji spoke about how self-defense was the need of the hour. She also said that mothers cannot be told how to bring up their kids. On the other hand, Deepika and Anushka spoke about the need for a transparent environment that allows girls to voice their fears. Many did not like Rani's POV and expressed their displeasure on social media. Actor Nakuul Mehta was one of them. He said it would have been a little better if Rani had heard what the other women on the table have to say...

It is not only Nakuul Mehta who seems somewhat disappointed by what Rani Mukerji has said. However, this is not the first time the actor has spoken lengths about #MeToo.

ISRO shortlists 15 firms for transfer of EV battery tech This move could make EVs cheaper, since imported Li ion batteries constitute the big expense factor of EVs. Isro has shortlisted 15 firms to transfer the manufacturing technology of lithium-ion (Li ion) batteries for electric vehicles (EV). This move could make EVs cheaper, since imported Li ion batteries constitute the big expense factor of EVs. “We have communicated to the shortlisted firms that they will have to give a one-time fee of `1 crore. We have avoided firms with exposure to foreign equity in identifying the qualifying industrial houses or start-ups,” S Somanath, director, Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre (VSSC), the rocket sciences node of ISRO, told FE. “The final move will depend on their response,” he said, declining to name the firms.

Sóller hike followed by a healthy vegan lunch

By
We got a group of friends together (of various ages and fitness levels) to hike around the hills surrounding the Mallorcan town of Sóller, in the northwest of the island. There are many quite easy trails but usually, it involves a bit of hiking up and downhill. We began our walk at the first roundabout after the tunnel and climbed for about 25 minutes uphill after that it was reasonably flat for the next hour or so. The final part was decent into the town of Sóller where we had booked a private vegan brunch for our group. Barbara and Martjin opened Ecocirer in March 2018 as a vegan hotel with 6 bedrooms in the town of Sóller. It is the ideal accommodation for a family celebration if you would like to enjoy healthy vegan food with plenty of activities to get you out into the beautiful nature surrounding the picturesque town. The expe...
