Bhushan Kumar with wife Divya Khosla Kumar and Sister Tulsi IT'S been difficult to pin Bhushan Kumar down. One week he's holidaying in London, then soon after he's back, he's under an avalanche of work. You have to take his word for it when he says that Sunday works best to meet the T-Series managing director with his family. But things turn a little wonky the Saturday before the final meet. "He has to meet Shah Rukh Khan in the afternoon, so could you come by for dinner?" asks his office. Anxious moments. Shah Rukh's always running late, will Bhushan as well? But when you're respectfully ushered up via a private lift straight into his home at the plush Oberoi Sky Garden in Lokhandwala complex (Bhushan owns the top-most three floors), the man is in, wrapping up another interview. You're mildly surprised, as you pad across the wooden floors barefoot. Does Bhushan reserve meeting journalists on Sundays? Yet the atmosphere is decidedly relaxed and he...

Fashion designer Ritu Kumar's son Amrish has called his just launched record label, Mummy Daddy Records. He's only 31, but the impatience in his voice as he races through his thoughts, says he's in a hurry. In a rush to pack in as much as he can in a day, week, month, possibly a life. Amrish Kumar can't ignore that his mother, Ritu Kumar, is one of India's veteran fashion designers, credited with having incorporated indigenous crafts into mainstream fashion. And so, mornings are reserved for creating new design and business ideas for her prêt label, while evenings are set aside for a passion — music. He wants to bridge the gap Amrish can't quite remember when he caught the now-raging fascination for music. But the launch of Mummy Daddy Records in June this year, makes for an unforgettable achievement. "For the last 10 years, our music industry has been in the doldrums. In India, Bollywood/pop commands attention, and Indian classical music to some degree. Th...
