Indulge in some homemade festive delicacies with TLC’s new short format videos “Home Made Love” with Ranveer Brar.
MUMBAI: TLC, India's go to lifestyle channel is launching an unconventional food-based short format series titled ‘Home Made Love’ from September 9. This first of its kind multi-part cooking based series ‘Home Made Love’ is powered by leading brands such as TTK Prestige, Tata Sampann Spices and Tupperware.
In this special short format series, TLC will take viewers on a delicious journey across the country with the Chef Ranveer Brar. Having missed out on many festive meals with his family due to his work, Ranveer is now back and is on a quest to find the best festive dishes. He will be teaming up with his mother and some other mothers too from across various regional and cultural backgrounds to make some lip-smacking dishes for various festivals such as Ganesh Chaturthi, Onam, Navratri, Durga Puja, Diwali and so on.
“I have always believed in the power of mothers to make us happy and joyous through our food at any point in time. To celebrate Indian cuisine is incomplete without celebrating the home-cooked food. There are three pillars that our food stands on – home-cooked food, royal food and street food – and all of them are equally important. While enough has been spoken about street food and royal food, more and more needs to be spoken about homemade food and the home makers who have carried that tradition forward. I’m looking forward to Home Made Love to do that, to spread the message of joyous home cooked food through TLC, said, Chef Ranveer Brar. “As far as TLC goes, this is the beginning to many more things that TLC and I will be doing together in the food, travel and lifestyle space.”
“TTK Prestige has powered the love of relationships in a family for many decades. Every product that we innovate and offer is inspired by ‘the love of cooking’ in fact we work and believe in a thought ‘Nurturing love, togetherness and food’. The concept of mother’s inspiring festive cooking is unique and a great fit for our brands," said, TTK Prestige Executive Vice president – Sales & Marketing Dinesh Garg.
Tata Chemicals Business Head – Spices and Marketing, Consumer Products Business Sagar Boke states that the association with TLC’s ‘Home Made Love’ is a perfect fit for Tata Sampann as the brand nestles its belief in the power of wholesome Indian food, “Tata Sampann’s core philosopy is inspired from the Indian Food wisdom. We believe that “ghar ka khana” cooked with good quality ingredients is most suitable for Indians. Our purpose is turn everyday Indian food into powerhouses of nutrition. That’s why everything that emerges from the Tata Sampann table is always pure, most authentically sourced – wanting to bring moments of delight and a unique nutritional benefit in every meal that you cook for your family.”

Ellison takes his Paramount-Warner Bros case straight to theater owners
The Skydance chief goes to CinemaCon with promises and a skeptical crowd waiting
CALIFORNIA: David Ellison strode into a room packed with thousands of cinema owners and executives at CinemaCon in Las Vegas on Thursday and did something rather bold: he looked them in the eye and asked them to trust him.
The chief executive of Paramount Skydance vowed that his company would release a minimum of 30 films a year if regulators greenlight its proposed $110 billion acquisition of Warner Bros Discovery, a deal that has made theater owners deeply, and loudly, nervous.
“I wanted to look every single one of you in the eye and give you my word,” Ellison told the crowd. “Once we combine with Warner Bros, we are going to make a minimum of 30 films annually across both studios.”
It was a confident pitch. Whether it landed is another matter. Cinema operators have already called on regulators to block the deal, and scepticism in the room was hardly concealed.
Ellison pushed back by pointing to recent form. Paramount, born from the merger of Paramount Global and Skydance Media last August, plans to release 15 films this year, nearly double the eight it put out in 2025. Progress, he argued, was already underway.
He also threw theater owners a bone they have long been chasing: all films, he pledged, would run exclusively in cinemas for a minimum of 45 days, drawing applause from a crowd that has spent years fighting for exactly that commitment across the industry.
“People can speculate all they want,” Ellison said, “but I am standing here today telling you personally that you can count on our complete commitment. And we’ll show you we mean it.”
Fine words. The regulators, however, will have the last one.
