In a detour from our usual spotlight fair, we shine the light on fashion brand Karleo. Karleo doesn’t run out of a big store with a massive facade. They are a homegrown brand born out of a desire to build something new in the Indian context.

Founded by partners in crime, Karan Berry and Leon Vaz, Karleo brings together unique talents to design exquisite wedding gowns that tell the story of the brides who wear them to walk down the aisle.

Once again we are indulging our love of food with this month’s spotlight on Abhiram and his podi, pickle, chutney and other 'touching' items home business - Podi Nan Maga. Read on to know how Abhiram went from cooking with his grandma to bringing her flavours to people in Europe and America.

Oh, and get ready to make everyone cry with joy with the season special rasam recipe at the end!
