Zee Theatre’s teleplay Gudiya Ki Shaadi takes a light-hearted jab at the standards of beauty set by society, especially with regards to women. Shweta Basu Prasad, who plays Gudiya, is a strong and confident girl who is proud of her skin colour.

Talking about beauty, Shweta says, “We as a society are so hung up with beauty and the definition of beauty is all about how one looks on the outside more than who you are as a person.” Shweta finds the role of Gudiya positive. “Gudiya is the most positive character I have played as an actor.”

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).
