Evelyn Sharma launches Evelyn's Secrets

WBRi — Sun, 09 Apr 2017 09:15:37 -0600

They say, beauty is skin deep,

For it the world weeps,

Evelyn now lets you peep,

Her secrets safe you can keep.

Evelyn Sharma wants to get personal with her fans; inside out. More personal than her interactions on social media. And for this direct connect, the actress and fashion philanthropist has come up with a unique idea. She has gone online with her secrets.

Evelyn has launched a brand new website called EvelynsSecrets.com, where her way of getting intimate is sharing her personal beauty secrets with the public. "It's my way to give something back for the love and support I've been getting," quips the spunky lover of wellness and travel.

What's more! Whenever she gets time, Evelyn chats with her fans on the site, and even encourages them to share their beauty secrets with her. A first for any celeb indeed!

So is all the beauty information only going to be for the sake of educating? Or is Evelyn planning to convert it into a business model in the future? "You never know what the future holds," she quips and reveals her dream of owning a spa. Aha.

By now we sure know Evelyn is a lady of many faces. The Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani actress was recently seen speaking at Donald Trump's National Prayer Breakfast in Washington. A few days later, she headed to the little city of Karjat adjoining the Sahyadri Western Ghats near the banks of the River Ulhas in Maharashtra. Here she helped build a home for an underprivileged family, along with members of the Habitat for Humanity organization.

The Last Peer of the City: As I Saw Him---An Obituary by Abesh Kumar Das.

Reminiscing a man of letters...Debashish Bandyopadhyay. ...It was around April, 2009. I was at" Mayurakshi"(name of the house) for collecting an article. Bamada (well known writer Bamaprasad Mukhopadhyay) gave me the connection to the landlord. Bookshelf is a common factor in any author’s house. But I had not at all been prepared for the prodigious aura I perceived that day. No sooner the handsome old man had come and taken a chair in front of my couch that I could fully comprehended his dignified peerage. The veteran was smoking in his elegant gesture. Years after , once in a personal discussion Debasish Bandyopadhyay coined his cigarette as a quiet companion of solitude. Prior to my admiration of him as a maverick literary figure he was regarded as a legitimate peer of mine. The last of the peers lived at an era awfully characterized by its inherent kakistocracy.
