Time to go high-brow. Learn more about theatre or music, attend a book-reading session, or put on your thinking caps at a documentary screening. And at the end of the day, find yourself smarter by a few notches.
Make up your excuses to have a blast this weekend - music, book reading, theatre, shopping, lazing around, Indo-Pak peace, anything! For best results, switch the news off.
While Thermal And A Quarter scorched it up a few degrees at Hard Rock Cafe, the ladies can go on a liquid diet at several other places today - it's free.
A medley of happenings keeps the city occupied, and at times, productive as well. Grab your spade and sharpen your green thumb, or attend Telugu theatre or a music concert, or shop away to glory.
Lose yourself among your paper-backed friends, or in swathes of handlooms this week. The green-thumbed among us have a blast as well, and the miscellaneous shopper in us comes alive at the Numaish.
Spend your evening in the company of hot Bollywood tracks and a few even hotter from the Arabian deserts. There's a bunch of Bollywood parties heating up the night, a karaoke evening, and an Arabian-themed do.
A breed that's blissfully unaware of the randomization of normal life in the city, kids have fun today. A German activity hour, theatre, gardening and a bout of shopping do their bit to keep the adult world in good stead as well.
Artworks go endearingly earthy as Shilparamam's students show off what they learnt to do with clay. Then, there are paintings and photography to check out as well.
One love, indeed. Tennis and cricket, Hyderabad's perennial sporting avenues, continue to be played. Also, Osmania University's yoga lap of its sport festival will be held this week.
Seekers of the past are satiated today, though those wishing for the weekend to come back might be left stranded. Plenty of retro and rock coming your way this night.
Chow down and get going with the week ahead. Strawberries and Peshawari cuisine catch the city's fancy, but maybe not as much as the exhibitions peddling handlooms, handicrafts and books.
And that's how the week ends - or begins, whichever way you want to look at it. Ananda Shankar Jayant with her rendition of the Ramayana, tax-free entertainment from Sifar, French cinema from Alliance, and budding talent from Kalasagaram - will make your Monday feel like the pits.
