Deepika Padukone’s Balam Pichkari is the new-age Holi anthem. And the actress kind of agrees to it, “If I may say, Balam Pichkari is like Rang Barse (Silsila, 1981) of our generation. Nowadays, every Holi party starts with Rang Barse and the second song has to be Balam Pichkari. It feels nice to have been part of such an iconic song.”

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).
