Delhiites bowled over by 'Ladakh'

“Have you ever been to a place and felt like you’ve reached heaven? If not then you should go and see Ladakh,” said Ranjan Ramachandani, of his recent coffee table book – Ladhak, the land of splendour. “The picturesque beauty of Ladhak left me awe-struck. I wanted to bring out the overwhelming wilderness, beauty and mystery of the place,” said he, during the launch by Dr Karan Singh.
No cricket please: The book was commissioned by Ramchandani’s close friend Vivek Khushlani, who was also the host for the evening.Present at the occasion were also cricketers Yuvraj Singh and Ashish Nehra. Everyone present wanted their opinion on the recent match-fixing scandal and the loss of the Indian team in Sri Lanka, but both the cricketers refused to talk about cricket. Scared of being caught foot in the mouth or what?
Motherly woes: Neeva Jain, who was spotted after a long time at a social do, came along with son Arhaan. She shared with us, “I’ve just come out of a major depression. I was missing my daughter so much. It’s been four years that she’s gone abroad to study.
