Amika Shail was spotted doing a photoshoot in a typical white and red border hand-woven cotton and silk mixed Jamdani saree. She is shooting for SAB’s untitled OTT film, directed and produced by Heeren Adhikari, which revolves around cybercrime. Amika says, “I strongly believe that the strength of our community lies in its roots and value system. We Bengalis are proud of our tradition and culture.” She adds, “One of my sweetest childhood memories is eating the food made by my mother, especially during Durga Puja. Mumbai is my second home and I just love the way the city embraces different religions and cultures. Watching Bengali films and eating Bengali food kept me connected to Bengal. I feel blessed that my parents supported me in my decision to relocate to Mumbai.

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).
