Renu Dalal continues family’s culinary legacy with launch of second cookbook – Simple & Delicious Vegetarian Recipes...

Mumbai, March: Renu Dalal, daughter of renowned chef, cookbook author, and television presenter Tarala Dalal, launched her second cookbook – Simple & Delicious Vegetarian Recipes – at Mumbai’s Crossword Bookstores, Kemps Corner, on the 22nd of January. This cookbook follows in the wake of her maiden best-seller, Modern Vegetarian Recipes.

Inspired by the overwhelmingly positive reception that greeted the release of her first book, and with many more recipes to share, Renu set about penning her second book. With stunning food photography and many recipes that are quick, simple, and easy-to-follow, Simple & Delicious Recipes is a glimpse into the foods and flavours that excite Renu on a daily basis.

The recipes contained in this book were gathered by Renu and chosen for their inventiveness, healthiness, and simplicity. With new and exciting dishes like rose shrikhand, no bake Oreo tarts, and black rice and asparagus samosas with chess sauce, this cookbook is an indispensable guide for both the home cook and the professional chef.

The seeds of cuisine were sown early on Renu Dalal’s life as she watched her mother, revered chef and household name Tarla Dalal, concoct meals that became her legacy. With a childhood filled with gourmet meals, Renu, very early on, was inclined towards the culinary arts. After the passing of her beloved mother, she came up with interesting hybrids of everyday vegetarian food. Her food style is fusion and inventive, where she combines the flavours from the world over with techniques of traditional Indian cuisine. Her style is playful, and her recipes reflect that, which is enjoyed and appreciated by both children and adults alike.

99 Songs Marks the 23rd Year of the AR Rahman-Sony Music India Association...

The release of the music of 99 Songs today marks the culmination of a journey — an actual labor of love for composer AR Rahman, who turns writer and producer with this film.

A Jio Studios and YM Movies release, the film’s music is being distributed through Sony Music India. The AR Rahman-Sony Music India bond runs deep (their 100+ songs together is a testament to that). All his firsts, i.e., as an artist, as a  composer for Bollywood soundtrack as well as a movie producer have all been with the music giant.

This marks the continuance of a relationship with Sony Music, that’s as timeless as the magical music created across everything from Vande Mataram to Rang De Basanti, Guru and OK Jaanu.

Says ARR, “I had such an amazing time writing, producing and scoring 99 Songs, even though it’s more work than usual. Some of the songs had to evolve with the character and the story whereas some play as part of the soundtrack. Our team is excited to work with Sony Music again, carrying our relationship into the 23rd year.

I hope you like the songs. I want to thank you all in advance for your support and love as always!”

The album, contrary to its title, will have14 songs that will serve to introduce listeners to fresh, new sounds by the maestro.

Starring newcomers Ehan Bhat and Edilsy Varghese, the film has been directed by Vishwesh Krishnamoorthy.
