Niyati Fatnani is going to play the role of Ginni, a dhaba owner in Amritsar, on her new Star Bharat show Channa Mereya. The actress shared that she had to gain weight under proper guidance for her role.

Niyati says, “As I am playing a Sikhni from Amritsar, I have been told to gain weight to actually look like a Punjaban, under proper care of course. I am a vegetarian, so my options are limited. When I was in Amritsar, I ate kulche-chhole, makki ki roti and lassi.”

Speaking about her diet preferences, Niyati says, “I prefer eating home-cooked food. I make this special drink for myself with chia seeds in nimbu paani and instead of sugar I put honey in it. To keep myself hydrated I drink coconut water as well.”

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
