Nail Extensions

Nail extensions involve the addition of an artificial tip to your nail. The artificial tip is then strengthened by covering it in gel, acrylic, or fiberglass. The nail extension techniques are categorized based on the material and how they are attached to your nails.

Permanent Lip Shades

Lip shading/pigmentation uses a much kinder, less invasive method of colour implantation. It is a great way of adding definition, colour and volume to your lips, making you ready for anything all day, every day.

Permanent Eyeliners

Permanent eyeliner helps address time consuming and complex process of evenly applying eyeliner. Also, active people who want to look their best during their workouts have the great benefit of not sweating it off or having to reapply.

Permanent Moles

Though permanent moles could be created on any part of your body, they are most preferred on the face for prominence. Creating a beauty mark is done for the enhancement of appearance and is very popular among celebrities.

Permanent Make-up

Waking up beautiful is a dream of every woman. This dream became a reality with permanent makeup. It is ideal for women with an active lifestyle & a great solution for frequent travelers. Imagine how great it would be to become stress-free about the makeup ruining your outfits or frequent powdering.

Pedicure Manicure

Regular manicure and pedicure treatments offer far more than aesthetic benefits. Mani-pedi treatments keep your nails clean and free of cracks and chips, keep cuticles healthy and skin moisturized. Playing an important role in new skin regeneration, most professional pedicures also include the removal of tough, dry skin and calluses.

Team time4star wishes Nailashes All the Best for their Franchisee of Sector 75 Spectrum Mall Noida.

Nostalgic Moments &  Coach Real Cricketing Passion https://www.time4star.com/nostalgic-moments-coach-real-cricketing-passion/ https://www.time4star.com/nostalgic-moments-coach-real-cricketing-passion/#respond Wed, 20 Dec 2023 06:22:23 +0000 https://www.time4star.com/?p=1712 Hi Friends,

My today’s story on Cover Drive is really very near to my heart, this is concerning to my life’s First Cricket Coach- Mr. Ranjit Mehra- A Well Known Left Arm Spinner from Delhi- who has coach me  on  basic Cricketing skills during my earlier childhood days , I have had a very humble background coming from Middle Class Family of Delhi, where father was the only Earning Member, I use to Study at Govt School at Jheel khuranja, which was one of the most Famous School in Delhi during 80’s due to their Performance is Sports and Academics as well, in East Delhi.

when I was just 14 years old Boy, learning my initial tricks of the game, this School was also famous for the Coach too, who was other then Mr. A. N. Sharma– who happens to be  Coach of Indian Cricket Legend Virender Sehwag, we were lucky to being trained by

Mr. A N Sharma, I have huge respect for him, he has been so phenomenon on teaching us basics of the game.. Kudos to Sharma Sir, I wish him long life.

Now coming back to my Story, I remember, First I saw my First Coach Ranjit Mehra A Quality Left Arm Spinner & decent Batter -those days, he was our  Paaji , as he was in his late 20’s while he was training us, without taking any monies  From us, I remember those days , we were is East Delhi- Gandhi Nagar, Ranjit Paaji also use to live there,( he also coming from Middle Class background)  he had started a Club with the name G N Kolts- Gandhi Nagar Colts, that’s the place I met few of my Childhood Buddies- Naved Alam- ( Those days he was quite quick as a Bolwer, with lack of Opportunities those days – he also did not play more then DDCA League )  I am in touch with till date , what a Fine human being he is, today  he is a respected Umpire in Delhi- Sanjay puri, Moh Shahid – Radhey Shyam ( what a Classy Batsman – he was those days).

We’re the Students of Ranjit Paaji, We use to reach on the Ram lila Ground early in the morning to Roll the Wicket with Stumps those days, matting wickets were very popular, that too half matting wickets, even the School Zonal matches sometimes were happening on half matting wickets, major. Or bigger tournaments like DDCA Leagues etc to take place on turf Wickets, Delhi Cricket. Was very Different those years.

Jheel khuranja No-1 had one of the best Team of Delhi school, I remember we won the Thumps -up Inter school Tournament too in Kolkata.. which was one of the biggest School tournament those. Years.

Ranjeet paa jee was Very popular. Amonst all our friends, he use to work during the day with some Organisation, (later on  he joined Hindustan Times on Sports Quota  in Dispatch Department) in the evening around 5 or 5: 30, we all were meeting in Ground, there we had net, Paajee used to coach us with batting Bowling and Fielding, he himself was a very good player, he played DDCA League with many Club Teams, those days no of tournaments were popular in Delhi, on Matting very few were there in Turf Wickets.

I remembered, we all use to pool in 2 Rupees each to buy a Ball, Pajee Figured out a shop , which was selling Balls which had some manufacturing defect those balls , he used to purchase on half of the cost due to less availability of Funds, for practice on the nets.

Those were the Golden Days, I wish if in our times Tournaments like IPL or some other league, would had been there, I am sure many Cricketers were played at least some of those prestigious tournaments, as Competition was also very cut. Throat those days, but those were the Golden Days.

I met my Friend Naved Alam , Kishan Sharma, recently in All India Exporters T-20 league in Greater Noida, this was a You Tube Live Event,  where Naved  was the Umpire even Kishan Sharma – Balli Bhai was. The Operations head for the. League  also met Ranjeet paajee after a long time, he had retired  from his job, today he is 65 years of Age, we really cherish our early days of Cricket. But. He is. Still coaching in Arvachin School- Vivek Vihar. As Head Coach, he is stii not retired Cricket has been his First Love, soon ,we will Start a Cricket Academy, this. Will allow us to get. All the Friends together.

Fasco Premier League- Season-II, was a great Cricket Extravaganza where All Leading Exporters of India Participate, this tournament has reached to a Different level, I did the Commentary for the Event along with Rahul ,  Jagrit Anand(Rranji trophy from Delhi , he is an amazing human being & Sports Enterpreuner ) he and Arnab his Partner were managing the league.

Also met Mr. Prince Malik – who is the main brain behind the Fasco Premier League by getting all gthe Exportters of Handicraft under one platform for Cricket and DK amazing Cricketers and great Human beings.

We were delighted with the Presence of West Indies Legend Courtney Walsh and Senior Indian Cricketer Rudra Pratap Singh were Chief Guest.

Very Soon I will be organising a get together with all my Old Cricketing Buddies of 80’s and 90’s — We will call that Get together Series ‘” Golden Boys Bash”

 I always feel Once a Cricketer Sportsman for a lifetime, as Cricket has given lot to me in my life too, I am always thankful for the game, though, I have never made it bigger in the game not played for India, I am sure soon, I will working on starting my own Academy or organising a League in order to relive my Dream for Fulfilling my Dream Playing with Stars, before I die.

Thanks to all my Friends and well-wishers for supporting me every inch of the way,

I wish Ranjeet Paajee a Very Happy and long life, Team Time4Star wishes him great days ahead.

HERO Reel & Real Life https://www.time4star.com/hero-reel-real-life/ https://www.time4star.com/hero-reel-real-life/#respond Wed, 20 Sep 2023 09:10:08 +0000 https://www.time4star.com/?p=1355 Hi, friends. Through this column, I talk about my friends, family, or well-wishers. But today’s story is about a person from Bollywood who has been a real inspiration. One, because of his craft as an actor-producer, for which he is being loved by all his fans across the globe. But my today’s Cover Drive Section is dedicated to him, just for a simple fact: he is an amazing human being. During my career so far, I have met many Bollywood stars. Some of them throw tantrums all of the time (without naming them), some are real gems, real-life stars, some reel-life stars only. Today, I am talking about one such real-life star.

This star is different. His simplicity as a person touches hearts, and his truthfulness as a human being is truly inspiring. His persona exudes a different aura, and after meeting him, you realize that real, good-hearted people do exist. He is the most genuinely humble Bollywood star I have ever come across. He is stylish to the core, and his understanding of style is unique and quite distinctive. At the same time, he is one of the rare, genuine human beings in Bollywood, though there are many others still.

“I can go on and on about him, about his genuineness as a person and as a star. He doesn’t behave like one, no tantrums, yet stylish to the core, always a calm and smiling man.

I’ve had the opportunity to meet him many times. Well, you all must be curious by now… who is this amazing personality? Let me catch my breath, as when I talk about him, I go non-stop.

I am truly impressed with his style, persona, and life. He is none other than Mr. Sunil Shetty, Indian actor, film producer, and action hero of Bollywood, who is lovingly called Anna.”

I had the opportunity to meet Anna and spend some time with him during the music release of my friend’s film ‘Desi Katte’ in Delhi. Another one of my favorite directors, and a great human being, is Anand Kumar.

During the music release of ‘Desi Katte,’ along with Anand Bhai, I met Anna. I was so impressed with his great personality. What style, man! His dressing sense and the way he speaks are amazing. Sometimes, I feel he could give many Hollywood stars a run for their money. Given a chance, he would have done wonders in Hollywood too.

Let me come back to the incident during the music release of ‘Desi Katte,’ which was planned in one of the Five Star Hotels’ disc in Delhi. In those days, this disc was very popular amongst partygoers. More importantly, the music of ‘Desi Katte’ was composed by another stalwart musician and singer, Kailash Kher. He was also in Delhi for this music release, another amazing human being. I will write a cover drive on him too.

Now coming back to this story, when Anand Bhai and I received Anna from the airport, we were in the same car. He simply asked where we would be staying and what the plan for the release was. Anand introduced me to Anna and said, ‘My friend Alok arranged the evening settings for the music launch, which will start with a press conference.’ While talking all this, we reached the hotel as mentioned—a decent 5-star hotel, although in those days, none of the Bollywood stars used to stay there due to their service, etc. When we arrived at the hotel, Anna looked at me and said, ‘Oh, you booked this hotel.’ I thought, ‘Ab lagegi Meri’ but he didn’t say anything, just smiled and said, ‘I can understand the budgetary issues, but no worries. Ask them to clean the room once again and spray one more time. Chill, man… Chalta hai. Let us focus on the music release.’ I was relieved. Even during the music launch, he spoke so beautifully. In front of the press, he talked about the way I had managed the whole thing.

It was such an amazing evening. The next morning, while leaving for Mumbai, Anna said, ‘Alok, you are a passionate and honest guy. Keep your passion alive, things will happen for you. All the best.’ He left with an amazing smile and said, ‘Thanks so much… you rock.’ I was so happy. Whenever I met Anna, I always felt so happy and honored. That’s how the real star gave me the real magic to live life with ease. Let me take you through the journey of this amazing Bollywood star.

Born on 11th August 1961, he made his debut in the year 1992 with his first Bollywood film ‘Balwan,’ which was not a hit. However, his acting skills and power-packed performance were noticed in Bollywood circles at that time, and even critics praised his performance.

His best came in the year 1994 with the super hit film ‘Mohra.’ It was then that the entire world realized Sunil Shetty is an actor of class, showcasing amazing acting skills in ‘Mohra.’ Thereafter, he never looked back. His other hits were J.P. Dutta’s ‘Border’ in 1997, ‘Refugee’ in 2000, ‘Qayamat: City Under Threat’ in 2003, and ‘LOC Kargil’ in 2003. These films were not only liked by the audience but also established him as a powerful actor in Bollywood, as well as an action star.

He has acted in more than 80 films, portraying various shades of characters in his acting career, ranging from hero to becoming a villain. Serious, intense to comic characters, all played in style and leaving their mark on the audience each time he faced the camera.

Some of his amazing hits were ‘Hera Pheri’ in 2000, ‘Awara Paagal Deewana’ in 2002, and ‘Phir Hera Pheri’ in 2006. These films have established him as one of the finest actors who can perform comic roles with ease.

Later on, he started his own production company titled ‘Popcorn Motion Pictures.’ Under his production house, he did his first projects: ‘Khel’ in 2003, ‘Rakht’ in 2004, and ‘Bhagam Bhag’ in the year 2006.

He has a knack for fitness. Till date, he remains a dashing, handsome, and athletic man. Being fit all the time comes naturally to him and is his mantra for life. This belief led him to invest in the Pune-based online health and fitness venture named ‘Fittr’ in 2019, with founder Jitendra Chouksey. The venture has since become a highly successful online fitness brand.

Anna also has a great interest in cricket, and he plays it well. This passion afforded him the opportunity to become the captain of Mumbai Heroes in the Celebrity Cricket League in 2018.

Apart from being the owner of a few clubs and restaurants, he has ventured into the luxury furniture and home lifestyle business with his wife Mana Shetty in Mumbai.

Now, let’s take a peek at the awards he has received in his Bollywood journey:

  • Filmfare Award for Best Villain for ‘Dhadkan’ (2001)
  • Zee Cine Award for Best Supporting Actor in ‘Dhadkan’ (2001)
  • GIFA Award for Best Villain in ‘Main Hoon Na’ (2005)
  • Stardust Award for Best Actor for ‘Red Alert: The War Within’

Team Time4Star wishes Anna a very happy life!

India’s Power Performance in ASIA CUP-2023, Ooh’—la—la.. https://www.time4star.com/indias-power-performance-in-asia-cup-2023-ooh-la-la/ https://www.time4star.com/indias-power-performance-in-asia-cup-2023-ooh-la-la/#respond Mon, 18 Sep 2023 14:12:24 +0000 https://www.time4star.com/?p=1345 “Indian Team had a thrilling victory over Sri Lanka by 10 wickets to clinch Asia Cup 2023 at Premadasa Stadium in Colombo. This victory became more special as it was a scintillating performance by Siraj, taking 6 wickets and bowling out Sri Lanka for a mere total of 50 runs.

This was a low total for Sri Lanka, which made the entire match one of the weakest finales of the tournament. It was a major disaster for Sri Lankan captain Dasun Shanaka who won the toss and elected to bat first, a decision that ultimately proved to be wrong. Within a few overs, they lost wickets at regular intervals. Sri Lanka lost 6 wickets for just 12 runs, and the innings lasted only for 15.2 overs, ending on a mere total of 50 runs.

With a target of just 51 runs, India conquered it in 6.1 overs, with Shubman Gill scoring 27 and Ishan Kishan scoring a brilliant 23 not out.

Siraj was the main force behind India’s success, achieving his personal best figures of 6 wickets for just 21 runs, including one maiden over. This made his spell one of the most fiery performances, earning him the Player of the Match award.

From the beginning of Sri Lankan innings, Siraj was on fire, taking 4 wickets in one over, which rattled the Sri Lankan innings. They were 12 for 5 at the end of the fourth over. He was delighted when Pathum Nissanka was caught at point on the very first ball of the over. Later on, Sadeera Samarawickrama and Charith Asalanka fell on the third and fourth balls of that same over. Siraj further did damage when, on the final ball of the same over, he got Dhananjaya de Silva caught behind, sealing the tragic loss for Sri Lanka in the finale in front of their home crowd.

Siraj was ecstatic about this power-packed performance of taking 6 wickets against Sri Lanka. His joy doubled when he learned that he had equaled the record of Sri Lankan speedster Chaminda Vaas, who had picked 5 wickets against Bangladesh in the ICC Men’s World Cup in 2003, all in just 16 balls.

During the post-match interview, the jubilant Siraj stated, ‘Jitna Naseeb mein hota hai utna hi milta hai, Aaj mera naseeb tha,’ as if he was referring to the third ODI in Thiruvananthapuram, where he took 4 wickets against Sri Lanka. Due to his early 4 wickets, Sri Lanka managed to score only 73 runs while chasing a mammoth total of 391. However, in that match, his only regret was that he couldn’t get the 5th wicket. He even mentioned the same, ‘that day, I was getting edges off the bat at regular intervals but could not get the 5th one. I am happy today I have got 6 wickets.’

He showed great sportsmanship by donating his USD 5000 cash prize, which he received as Player of the Match, to the groundsman of Premadasa Stadium, who had worked so hard to prepare the wickets. This was a wonderful gesture, a true champion’s move.

The Asia Cup has proven to be the best tournament for the Indian Team. At the same time, it provided valuable insights for the entire team management and players to analyze and prepare effectively for the upcoming ICC Men’s World Cup.

The Men in Blue tried different combinations to assess the suitability of each player within a winning combination. We saw Ishan Kishan adapting to the team’s requirements, a great sight. KL Rahul performed brilliantly with a classic century against Pakistan, and he was equally proficient behind the stumps. Shreyas Iyer, despite being given chances in the Asia Cup, was unlucky not to make a significant impact.

Some interesting records during this final match against Sri Lanka include:

  • Siraj achieved his 50th ODI wicket in 1002 deliveries.
  • India took 6 wickets for the first time within 10 overs in an ODI, and that too in a final match.
  • Siraj became the 2nd bowler to take 6 wickets in Asia Cup after Mendis.
  • Siraj’s figures of 6 for 21 became the best by any bowler against Sri Lanka in ODIs.
  • Siraj’s figures of 6 for 21 became the best by any Indian pacer in an ODI final, second only to Anil Kumble’s 6 for 12 in the Hero Cup during 1993.

Many Indian cricketers, including the God of Cricket Sachin Tendulkar and Saurav Ganguly, congratulated the Indian team on their historic victory in the Asia Cup Finals over Sri Lanka.

Rising Above Challenges: The Legacy of Perseverance

Post-Independence in 1947, the family migrated to Meerut, India. Here, they laid the foundation for a cricket bat and hockey stick manufacturing unit in 1950 with a humble capital of Rs. 400, procured from a local money lender. The early days were marked by struggles, but through sheer determination and relentless effort, they managed to produce a mere 16 bats per day. It was during this phase that Mr. B.D. Mahajan engaged senior players to craft quality cricket bats that resonated with cricketers globally. Thus, the iconic “BDM” brand was born.

Summit of Success: BDM’s Unwavering Leadership

Today, BDM stands as a premier manufacturer of cricket bats and accessories, boasting a daily production capacity of 600 bats. The legacy lives on through Mr. B.D.

Mahajan & Sons was launched in 1967, and a further transformation ensued in 1986 with the establishment of B.D. Mahajan & Sons Pvt. Ltd

Navigating Tragedies: Triumph Amid Adversity

The year 2010 marked a period of profound tragedy for the business family, with the untimely passing of Mr. Sunil Mahajan, affectionately known as “Pinto,” and Mr. B.D. Mahajan. This grievous blow was compounded in 2011 with the loss of Mrs. Kuldev Mahajan. Despite these setbacks, the two brothers embraced their father’s teachings and carried the family legacy forward.

Guided by Values: The Power of Entrepreneurship

Guided by the philosophy of steady and gradual growth, Mr. B.D. Mahajan’s principles have remained the driving force behind the group’s success. Eighty years of unceasing effort have seen the brand’s metamorphosis into a renowned name in cricket gear, propelled by cutting-edge technology, machinery, and a dedicated team of professionals.

Global Impact: BDM’s Unwavering Legacy

BDM’s influence stretches beyond national borders, with its products favored in countries like Australia, New Zealand, England, and even non-traditional cricket-playing nations.

A Trailblazing Trail: Honors and Achievements

Rakesh Mahajan’s journey has been punctuated by accolades, including his role as General Secretary of All India Sports Good Manufacturers Association and Chairman of Sports Cell of Western UP Chamber of Commerce.

An Inspired Future: BDM’s Path Forward

As BDM approaches its centenary year, its future shines bright. With an undying passion for cricket, the brand is poised to achieve even greater global heights.
