While scrolling through Instagram, we often wonder how celebrities look good in every single picture they post on social media. There is no denying that they have personal stylists, makeup artists, and hairstylists to help them look good, but they also know how to pose to get their best pictures.
This year, The Current has listed a few tips and tricks you can follow to get some gorgeous Instagrammable photographs in your Eid jora and tyaari.
Stand in the centre
If you are posing for a picture in front of a wall or building, try balancing equal spaces on both sides. It will make your picture aesthetically pleasing.
Follow the rule of third
The rule of third is not that technical as it sounds. It means you divide your image into the third both horizontally and vertically, and place your subject where the lines intersect.
Smile
Happy pictures are the best. Smiling for the camera will naturally make you look better on the camera and brighten up your image.
Use Natural Night
You do not need artificial lighting to get the best photos, go out in the sun and take pictures in natural light. The sun adds richness and warmth. If you don’t want to step out in this hot weather, use a window to your advantage and take a picture there.
Don’t use too many filters
Last but not least, don’t use too many filters as they can make your pictures look artificial and distort your features. Keep pictures as natural as possible.
Iraqi actress and well-known TV personality Enas Taleb is suing The Economist for using her picture in an article related to obesity. She stated in an interview that she has started legal proceedings in the United Kingdom (UK).
In an article titled ‘Why women are fatter than men in the Arab world’, The Economist published a photo of Enas Taleb. The picture was taken at the Babylon International Festival in Iraq. Enas said that the image was used out of context without her permission and violated her privacy. She also claimed it had been photoshopped.
The article argued that Arab women are overweight due to poverty and restrictions on leaving their homes.
Taleb said she was preparing to sue the publication in an interview with Newsline, “I have decided to take legal action against The Economist for their cover story. I am demanding compensation for the emotional, mental and social damage this incident has caused me. My legal team and I are arranging the next steps.”
Talking to al-Arabiya TV, Enas labelled the article as an “insult to the Arab woman in general and Iraqi women in particular”. She questioned why The Economist “takes interest in fat women in the Arab world and not in Europe or the USA”.
The much-awaited Koffee With Karan season 7 is back with stirring cups of steamy confessions, secrets, and manifestations. In the season’s second episode, the new Bollywood besties, Sara Ali Khan and Janhvi Kapoor graced the couch with stories about their style, wits, and misadventures.
Host Karan Johar asked them about life, work and love; the dynamic duo reveals stories of their travel and adventures. Bonding over the scenic beauty of Kedarnath, Janhvi and Sara’s trip hit a roadblock as they faced two near-death experiences.
Recollecting Khan’s choice of a low-cost no-heater hotel in a bid to save Rs 6000, Janhvi shared how this choice nearly froze them. She said, “I had traveled to Kedarnath with two thermals, one puffer jacket, three shawls, two-track pants, and two sweaters. Karan, I wore every single piece of clothing I had owned and was still shivering,” adding that by the time Sara returned to their room after meeting her friends, her lips had turned blue and she was shivering! She even added that apart from the absence of a heater in the freezing -7℃ weather, the bathroom in the hotel was also doubtful, “If I had sat on that pot, it would have shattered,” said Janhvi Kapoor adding to her bad-hotel stay story.
Later Janhvi chose a hike at Bhairavnath over walking a normal path, the duo were faced with an unexpected twist in their adventure. Sara Ali Khan said, “We decided to go to Bhairavnath and there was a normal path for walking. But we thought ourselves to be better. We chose to hike instead. There was an 85 incline of just rocks and Janhvi is like let us just climb this,” Though skeptical of climbing the incline, Sara admitted that she was afraid of being called a buzzkill. However, the adventure turned sour as their climb became very scary. Admitting about fear kicking in, Sara mentioned how at one point, she was sure they would fall off owing to dangerous rocks.
With no escape in sight, they found solace when they saw a fan coming toward them as they hung off the cliff. Much to their dismay, he was of no help, as he only wanted to take a selfie with them. Eventually, Sara’s driver found them after almost 30 minutes of being stuck, and they were rescued with the help of special forces.

Director-General (DG) Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI), Lieutenant-General Nadeem Anjum, has made it clear to all officials of the ISI that no interference in politics and political matters would be tolerated, reports Ansar Abbasi for The News.
The incumbent DG ISI is said to have decided soon after he joined the office to keep the institution away from politics.
Lt-Gen Nadeem Anjum had conveyed to all the concerned authorities not to release to the media his pictures or video footage taken during official meetings.
In relevance to the directives, none of his pictures or video footage taken during official meetings has so far been published or shown on TV channels.
Last week, a picture was released by the Prime Minister’s (PM) Office of a luncheon hosted by PM Imran Khan in honour of Bill Gates. The picture in which PM Khan and Bill Gates are sitting with Fawad Chaudhry, Asad Umar, Mahmood Khan, Azam Khan, Shaukat Tarin, Shah Farman, Khalid Khurshid, and several others at the main table.
If one looks at the picture closely, someone between Dr Faisal Sultan and Mahmood Khan seems to be ‘missing’.
The Current reached out to its sources and confirmed that it was the DG ISI Lt Gen Nadeem Anjum who had been photoshopped from the luncheon meeting picture.
After Anushka Sharma and her daughter were captured on live camera at an India vs South Africa match, the actor and her husband Virat Kohli explained that Anushka had been caught off-guard and did not realise the camera was on her and baby Vamika.
Vamika, who turned one recently, was spotted with her mother in the VIP stand watching Virat Kohli and Team India play South Africa in the ongoing series. Vamika’s face was revealed in the shot and screenshots have since gone viral on social media. In one of the pictures, Virat can be seen dedicating his 50 to his daughter.
He scored the 50 in the third and final One Day International of the three-match ODI series between India National Cricket Team and South Africa National Cricket Team at the Newlands, Cape Town on Sunda, which they ultimately lost.
In an Instagram story, Anushka clarified that she didn’t mean to allow Vamika to be filmed, repeating her request that photos of her daughter not be taken or shared. She wrote: “We realise that our daughter’s images were captured at the stadium yesterday and widely shared thereafter. We want to inform everyone that we were caught off-guard and didn’t know that the camera was on us. Our stance and request on the matter stays the same. We would really appreciate if Vamika’s images are not clicked/published for reasons we have explained earlier.”

Anushka and Virat have previously requested media and fans not to circulate photos of Vamika. Last month, the actor posted a note thanking the media for not publishing pictures that had been taken of the couple with their daughter.
Pakistan’s wicket-keeper-batter Mohammad Rizwan has recently revealed why he avoids taking pictures with girls.
A video of Rizwan’s interview is doing the rounds on social media in which the opener is explaining the reason for not taking pictures with his female fans.
“For me, women are very respectable and I don’t consider myself worthy to take pictures with my mothers or sisters when they ask me to take pictures with them. The standard of these women is very high to me,” he said.
The cricketer also wished that “my mothers and sisters, who are my fans, would not be angry with me over this act, there are some things I try to do to keep myself safe.”
There is no doubt that Rizwan had an exceptional year in T20 cricket but during Pakistan vs West Indies second T20I match in December, a female fan of his got attention of social media from the crowd holding a banner saying: “Rizwan please adopt me.”
She was photographed wearing a green jersey and a huge smile on her face during the match at the National Stadium in Karachi.
Fans also gushed over Rizwan’s pictures with his pillow on different international tours.
