Saptoadi Nugroho : Priya Sachdev

"You need to be in love to have good skin, I do not take too much time over my beauty regime but drink lots and lots of water and am careful about what I eat. I exercise regularly."

Priya Sachdev by Saptoadi Nugroho

With Valentine's Day around the corner, it's time to get that skin glowing. Think precious metals - gold, silver and bronze - the colours that give you instant radiance. The trick with these metallic hues is to use them as highlighters. It's all about enhancing. Shimmer and shine will give you that understated but grown-up look, just right for a dinner date.

Priya's Pointers
Priya Sachdev, the girl who has caught hotelier and newly-minted actor, Vikram Chatwal's heart, shares some of her beauty secrets.

On glowing skin
"You need to be in love to have good skin, (giggles) I do not take too much time over my beauty regime but drink lots and lots of water and am careful about what I eat. I exercise regularly."

On make-up
"I am not a huge make-up person. I use a Chantecaille base, which has green tea extracts and so is really good for the skin. I highlight my eyes with Nars eye shadows, in pinky tones and use Benetint's products on my lips and cheeks. Finally, it's Bobbi Brown's black kohl and Estée Lauder's mascara."

On her best and worst feature
"I like my eyes, which is why I highlight them. I hate my lips. Though everyone else says my lips are my best feature, I think they are too big."

On the first date
"First make sure to get lots of sleep the night before. Be excited but stay calm and get your hair done at a salon and wear your best dress. Do not go over the top with the make-up; keep it natural."

On Saptoadi Nugroho Hands

Burn Your Spirit by Saptoadi Nugroho

Picasso was baptized Pablo Diego José Francisco de Paula Juan Nepomuceno María de los Remedios Cipriano de la Santísima Trinidad Ruiz y Picasso (25 October 1881 – 8 April 1973) was a Spanish painter, draughtsman, and sculptor. As one of the most recognized figures in 20th-century art, he is best known for co-founding the Cubist movement and for the wide variety of styles embodied in his work. Among his most famous works are the proto-Cubist Les Demoiselles d'Avignon (1907) and Guernica (1937), his depiction of the German bombing of Guernica during the Spanish Civil War.

Several paintings by Picasso rank among the most expensive paintings in the world. Garçon à la pipe sold for USD $104 million at Sotheby's on 4 May 2004, establishing a new price record. Dora Maar au Chat sold for USD $95.2 million at Sotheby’s on 3 May 2006.

As 2004, Picasso remains the top ranked artist (based on sales of his works at auctions) according to the Art Market Trends report. More of his paintings have been stolen than those by any other artist.

Saptoadi Nugroho : Beyoncé Knowles

Beyoncé Knowles by Saptoadi Nugroho

Beyoncé Giselle Knowles (born September 4, 1981), best known mononymously as Beyoncé, is an American R&B singer, songwriter, record producer and actress. Born and raised in Houston, Texas, she enrolled in various performing arts schools, and was first exposed to singing and dancing competitions as a child. Knowles rose to fame in the late 1990s as the lead singer of the girl group Destiny's Child. Knowles has sold more than 50 million records worldwide with the group.

During the hiatus of Destiny's Child, Knowles released her debut solo album, Dangerously in Love, in June 2003. Dangerously in Love, which spawned the number-one singles "Crazy in Love" and "Baby Boy", became one of the most-successful albums of that year. It earned Knowles five Grammy Awards in a single night in 2004, and its reception signaled her viability as a solo artist. The disbandment of Destiny's Child in 2005 facilitated her continued success: she released her second solo album, B'Day, in 2006, which contained the worldwide hit "Irreplaceable". Her third solo album, I Am… Sasha Fierce, was released in November 2008, and spawned the worldwide hit "If I Were a Boy", and the US number-one single "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)".

The success of her solo albums has established Knowles as one of the most marketable artists in the music industry, and she has expanded her career to acting and product endorsement. She began her acting career in 2001, appearing in the musical film Carmen: A Hip Hopera. In 2006, she starred in the lead role in the film adaptation of the 1981 Broadway musical Dreamgirls, for which she earned two Golden Globe nominations. Knowles launched her family's fashion line, House of Deréon, in 2004, and has been engaged to endorse such brands as Pepsi, Tommy Hilfiger, and L'Oréal.

Saptoadi Nugroho : The Great Dictator

Saptoadi Nugroho : The Great Dictator

The Great Dictator by Saptoadi Nugroho

The Great Dictator is a comedy film directed by and starring Charlie Chaplin. First released in October 1940, it was Chaplin's first true talking picture, and more importantly was the only major film of its period to bitterly satirise Nazism and Adolf Hitler, culminating in an overt political plea to defy fascism.

The film is unusual for its period, as the United States was still formally at peace with Nazi Germany. Chaplin's film advanced a stirring, controversial condemnation of Hitler, fascism, antisemitism, and the Nazis, the latter of whom he excoriates in the film as "machine men, with machine minds and machine hearts".

The film was Chaplin's first "talkie", as well as his most commercially successful film
