Namaskaram and Happy New Year!
Since the start of my career as a TV personality in 2004 I have been working long hours for many days and weeks and months. Recently my family members told me that time is having its way with me and I should not only look at hourly time but daily time, weekly time and monthly time.
I thought about this and realized that time is all around; it is with you, behind you and in front of you. And one must see all the time, all the time.
Days, weeks and months must always be in front of you where you can see them and exactly what they are doing to you.
A calendar is the best method way of ensuring this.
The reason I have taken some trouble for landscaping of this calendar is that I believe that time should always be something to look forward to such as picnics and holiday times.
Hence I have presented a variety of seaside and beach holiday pictures, at the same time taking into account the steps one should take to be careful during such occasions.
My friend Glory Princess Joseph agreed with me. Infact she said that so many of my activities are in front of the camera why not also take a picnic in front of the camera?
Thus this calendar was born.
It is my sincere wish that you find this calendar useful as well as beautiful like my Aunt Thangamma’s handbag.
Sincerely,
Lola Kutty

TLC launches ‘World On My Plate’ with Shipra Khanna
New travel-food series premieres 29 March at 7:00 PM.
MUMBAI: Shipra Khanna just packed her bags and her flavours because when a celebrated chef takes you on a global plate tour, even the couch starts feeling like first-class. Warner Bros. Discovery India has announced the launch of World On My Plate with Shipra Khanna, a new travel and food series set to premiere on TLC on 29 March at 7:00 PM. Hosted and curated by the popular chef and television personality, the show blends food, travel and culture through an intimate and immersive lens.
Across three visually rich episodes, Shipra journeys to global destinations to explore not just what people eat, but why they eat it, uncovering the stories, traditions and human connections behind every dish. The series opens in London, weaving its iconic landmarks with diverse culinary scenes, before moving to Spain’s vineyards, olive orchards and coastal kitchens.
Warner Bros. Discovery head of advertising revenues for South Asia Tanaz Mehta said: “At TLC, our focus has always been on bringing authentic stories that reflect how people live and connect. World On My Plate builds on this by using food as a lens to explore shared traditions across geographies. We’re excited to collaborate with Chef Shipra Khanna, whose perspective brings both depth and relatability to these narratives.”
Shipra Khanna added, “Food has always been my way of connecting with people and understanding cultures. With World On My Plate, I’ve had the opportunity to step into new worlds, learn from incredible individuals, and share stories that go far beyond the plate. This show is very special to me.”
The series promises strong visual storytelling, meaningful interactions and a fresh perspective on global cuisine celebrating flavours alongside the emotions and traditions that shape them.
In a world where travel shows often feel like distant postcards, Shipra Khanna is serving up something far more personal: a passport to cultures through their kitchens, proving that the best way to understand a place is still through the plate. Tune in to World On My Plate with Shipra Khanna starting 29 March at 7:00 PM on TLC.
