FROM THE DIGITAL UNIVERSE TO REALITY

GRAN TURISMO , THE SERIES OF VIDEO GAMES for PlayStation, has been a revelation in every sense of the word. Not only does it give you the thrill of driving any type of vehicle on a race track or in a competition, but it does so in a very realistic way. The best part is that you can do all this in the comfort of your home, without worrying about the high costs it would involve in real life. Anyone can experience it, you just need a console screen and you're ready. This has become a great opportunity for automotive brands to show off their latest creations and show them to an audience that is interested in the car and could eventually buy one. That's how the Vision Gran…

MY FAVOURITE DRINK SCOTCH, INTERRUPTED

I DIDN’T EVER REALLY ENJOY a drink—at least not properly—until after I retired in 2013. My career lasted 21 years and I didn’t consume a lot of alcohol during that time. I couldn’t. Of course, there was the odd night, celebrating a win. But even that was a challenge. One memorable example was in 1999, when Manchester United won the league championship. Typically, you’d have a big celebration afterward. We didn’t because we had to play six days later in the FA Cup final. We won that, but then we had to get ready for the championship final a week later. By the time we won the treble, we were so exhausted we could hardly stand. So really, I had to wait quite a while to savour a glass of whisky,…

MY FAVOURITE DRINK SCOTCH, INTERRUPTED

SILK IS NOT THE MOST DURABLE MATERIAL. Rather, it’s the sumptuous, insect-spun fabric of shawls, slippers, and the linings of better coats—a textile that transcends commodification, more shimmering asset than sturdy cloth. Lovely, but with the integrity of a pecorino shaving. Silk, in its grained opulence, is party-at-night, not workaday. Even as automakers outfit their cabins with materials seemingly poached from a high-luxe spaceship—carbon fibre, open-pore wood, fibre-optic lighting, and glove leather—silk has remained off the menu, too delicate for the interior of a sporting car. That’s exactly what the head of Maserati, Harald Wester, thought. Looking to add a dose of exclusivity to his company’s already rarefied sedans, the Quattroporte sporting limousine and the smaller, stiletto-quick Ghibli, Wester turned to another century-old Italian powerhouse, the textile manufacturer and fashion…

THE HAIR WAS FEATHERED, bodysuits were tight, and dance floors were packed. The soundtrack? Giorgio Moroder. The heavily mustachioed Italian producer and recording artiste was one of the chief architects of disco and techno, crafting several lascivious superhits for Donna Summer, along with the timeless Blondie classic “Call Me.” He also designed a luxury sports car, collected a few Academy Awards and Grammys, and made a spectacular deejaying debut—at age 73. Moroder’s forthcoming album features Britney Spears, Kylie Minogue, Sia, and Charli XCX. Here, a half-century of Giorgio.…

FETTY WAP MAY LOOK GREAT IN A SUIT, but he hates wearing one. When he was 17, his mother told him about a high-paying job. The interview required a corporate appearance. He shaved off two years’ worth of dreadlocks, put on a suit, and showed up for the meeting, only to find that the position had already been filled. A sartorial trauma was born. “Suits aren’t my type of style yet,” the 25-year-old admits. “I’m still not ready for all that.” These days, he can wear whatever he wants. “Trap Queen,” the debut single by the Paterson, New Jersey, rapper (born Willie Maxwell II), recently went platinum. Though widely understood as an unconventional love song about dealing drugs with your significant other, that’s not quite it. “The song doesn’t have…

THE SON IS FAST, JUST LIKE THE FATHER WAS. Graham Rahal, driver of the #15 Steak ’n Shake car in the IndyCar series (co-sponsored by Maxim), is having a career year. He just scored a pair of thrilling runner-up finishes: At the Grand Prix of Alabama at Barber Motorsports Park last April, and at the Grand Prix of Indianapolis in May. More important, he has been fast and furious in every outing on the IndyCar circuit. But don’t look for the signature ’stache that his legendary dad, Bobby, sported during his Indianapolis 500 win in 1986. “I can’t grow one,” Rahal says with a chuckle. “It looks terrible.” If the young Rahal has a handicap, it might be the weight of expectations. Bobby’s dad, Mike, raced Porsches before Bobby became…

THE BICYCLE DIARIES

AFTER EXPERIENCING LIVING WITH 25 MILLION PEOPLE in Mumbai where my career, social life and love life all unfolded within five square kilometres, I yearned for something at the opposite end of the spectrum and I found it in the Spiti valley. I was in search of a place I was far removed from my job, and in Spiti I didn’t have to go to a park to see nature. Rudyard Kipling called Spiti “a world within a world.” Having hitchhiked through South America and cycled through East Africa in the past, this was one trip I knew I wouldn’t regret. Moutain biking may not be an easy feat, but it’s one that gives you a rush like no other sport. Lowering is a rock climbing technique to descend. If the…

THE BICYCLE DIARIES

It all started with a cheap drugstore comb. Pittsburgh metalsmith Michael Studebaker was using one to tame his unruly beard when the handle broke. “I decided to make something that would never break or bend in your pocket,” he recalls. “That you could keep forever and even pass down to your progeny—if they had beards, of course.” Studebaker, 29, and his wife, Alyssa, were already hand-forging jewellery on a pair of antique anvils in their Studebaker Metals studio, and that fateful comb snap five years ago inspired them to craft gorgeous and damn-near-indestructible grooming gear like the Hand-Forged Moustache Comb, Silver & Brass Handmade Safety Razor, and Brass & Badger Shave Brush alongside. Since 2013, Studebaker has been banging out grooming tools that are at once old-timey showpieces and everyday…

Scion Of Ikshvaku by Amish As usual Tripathi manages to create a glorious parallel universe which stretches into the far reaches of our imagination and learnt mythology with this story based on the life of Ram, an incarnation of Vishnu. It follows Ram’s childhood and tutelage while fastidiously describing the politics surrounding his ascension to the throne and subsequent 14-year exile. The Pregnant King by Devdutt Pattanaik Starting from the intriguing title to the unconventional plot, this adaptation of the Mahabharata story of King Yuvanashva is a definite page-turner. It deals with various themes like good vs evil, gender roles, societal pressure and much more in a way that makes it relevant even today. Basically, the childless king accidentally drinks a magic potion meant to make his queen pregnant. Chanakya’s Chant by Ashwin Sanghi Sanghi doesn’t slacken the…

Amy Directed by Asif Kapadia From the creators of the award-winning 2010 documentary, Senna, comes the true story on the life and death of Amy Winehouse in her own words using never-before-seen footage and archival content. Some sources believe Winehouse timed her death to join The 27 Club. Janis: A Film Directed by Howard Alk Made with assistance from Janis Joplin’s manager Albert Grossman, the film consists mainly of archival footage of the singer: From rehearsals and TV appearances to clips from her live performances and conversations with her sister, Laura, during a school reunion in Texas. A Film About Jimi Hendrix Directed by Joe Boyd, Gary Weis and John Head Made three years after the guitar god’s death, this rockumentary features footage from his last concert in the UK and interviews with his contemporaries and friends: Eric…

The Aston Martin AM37 is the first powerboat to actually carry the company’s name and its iconic allure. A rare crossover that actually shares the automaker’s DNA, the 37-foot speeder has a sliding deck that lets you cover the cockpit without stowing things away. It’s been presented in two versions—the ultimate sports ‘S’ version which throttles up to a max speed of 52 knots, and the gran turismo leisure powerboat version with a max speed of 44 knots. The hull features a high-tech composite of epoxy resin and carbon fibre. Mulder Design, the guys behind the superyachts in Bond movies like Moonraker and Octopussy, huddled on this project with Quintessence Yachts to combine the features of a Lexus sports car with a luxury speedboat to create a unique hybrid. It’s…

NO. NO. SO MUCH NO. Please don’t have a topknot. To have a topknot, or a man bun, is to proudly adorn the top of your head with the world’s worst thing. You’re basically wearing two fedoras. No, 10 fedoras. You have a soul patch as a haircut. You have a Hitler moustache on your dome. Your ’do is one of those giant e-cigarettes that people smoke peach-flavoured vapour out of. You have a Croc as a hairstyle. You also look like an overgrown adult baby, and I know that our grandfathers, with their rough hands and war stories and cool bouts with alcoholism, would be outraged. They would smack you with a rough, grown-man hand and then tell you to cut that stupid thing off your head. With all…

ANATOMY OF A STING

1. From a resort in Puerto Plata, Ballard checks his phone for updates. His two scouts are at bars, meeting with contacts who have promised to provide them with underage girls for a party. 2. Sex workers, many younger than 18, will be picked up here tomorrow for the supposed party. Ballard’s team has rented a house for the occasion. 3. Undercover cameras and microphones await installation in the sting house. 4. Ballard’s team counts their money; it’s what they’ll use to pay the sex traffickers. 5. It’s the night before the sting. Meanwhile, sex workers hang out in town, waiting for tourists. 6. In the morning, $100 bills are laid out on a bed so their serial numbers can be recorded. 7. The sex traffickers have arrived, money has exchanged hands, and the Transnational Criminal…

DIRECTOR’S CUT

FARAH KHAN “The sad part about watching a movie you truly love is that you can never get back that first time you saw it. If I could, I would return to the age of 12 or 13 when I first saw Singin’ In The Rain (1952). As a director and choreographer, it has been one of my greatest influences. I love Gene Kelly. Oh my God, I love him! I’ve seen most of his musicals, from Anchors Aweigh to The Pirate, but what stood out for me in Singin’ In The Rain is that it had a great story. I was also really attracted to the fact that it was a movie on the movie business with a sweet love story at its centre. It showed us how movies were shot…

NEW YEAR, NEW TRAVEL

CUBA Place to visit: Viñales Valley When: July to October A UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Viñales Valley in the Sierra de los Órganos mountains of Cuba is home to iconic tobacco plantations and outstanding Karst landscape—keep an eye out for cigar-chewing guajiros ploughing fields, a great photo-op for Instagram, while on your hop-on-hop-off bus tour. Viñales enjoys a lasting relationship with tourism (like rock climbing, salsa dancing, cycling tours, hiking and cave exploration) but still maintains its position as a slow-paced settlement surrounded by some of Cuba’s most striking natural beauty. LATVIA Places to visit: Gauja National Park and Riga When: April to August Gauja National Park was established to protect the valley of the Gauja river and its unique environs. In numbers, we’re talking about 500 cultural and…

ELENA FERNANDES

ELENA FERNANDES MIGHT LOOK LIKE A typical model with ridiculously long, toned legs that your S.O. will envy, an exotic look that turns most men into putty and the fact that she was randomly scouted at a magazine party she happened to attend with a friend. But there’s really nothing regular about this brazen multicultural girl as she traverses dozens of cities, stars in editorials and walks the runway for big name brands. We’ll see her in the Naseeruddin Shah-starrer Charlie Ke Chakker Mein later this year. I sit down for a tête-à-tête with the stunner as we wrap up this steamy shoot. She’s bright on our radar, and here’s why you need to watch this space. Describe a model’s travelling life for us... Lots of airmiles equals upgrades. Your father is Goan…

ELENA FERNANDES

OVER THE CENTURIES, TRAVEL HAS become one of the world’s largest industries. But until the ’60s, this strange form of human behaviour was always shrouded in an atmosphere of high culture and moral improvement; its real motives were hushed up. The English novelist, E.M. Forster, suggested—in his early novels about travellers in Italy—that frustrated, repressed upper-class English people really went to Italy not to examine churches and relics but to find love and sex. “One doesn’t come to Italy for niceness,” one of his characters admits. “One comes for life.” A polite euphemism for getting laid. Freud was of the opinion that sex and railway travel always went together (the incessant rocking motion?). But the same could be said for any form of whimsical wandering. The Grand Tour in the…

THE DISRUPTION OF DATING is officially complete. You can barely land a girl’s digits without engaging in the mating ritual known as “swiping right.” There are millions of women waiting to be messaged and 2,500 apps, services and sites to find everything—from the earnest (ROMANTIC PARTNER) to the carnal (ONE-NIGHT STAND) to the über-specific (A TOUGH MUDDER FINISHER WHO CAN SPEAK DOTHRAKI). The options are vast, but almost two-thirds of online daters are men. To provide an edge, we sifted through the data to help optimise profiles, outwit the algorithms and get off the app and in front of the right woman as quickly as possible.…

AS YOU STEP INTO THE LOBBY OF THE Le Meridien in Gurgaon, you’re instantly transported into a parallel universe, one in which exist larger-than-life statues, curious sculptures and modern installations—all created by some of the most prestigious names in art in India today. We caught up with David Hopcroft, the General Manager at Le Meridien, Gurgaon, to better understand and explore these unique visual wonders. Tell us about the relationship Le Meridien shares with the world of art? We believe the first 10 minutes of the guest experience sets the tone of the entire stay. A Paresh Maity work greets you as you enter the hotel. The figurine is a large face of a lady welcoming you. It is graciously poised and lends a warm touch to the entrance. To…

THEY CALL THEM DUMBBELLS for a reason. For most, the rusty-steel, scuffed-rubber gym weights feel like an obligation, a haunting spectre of would-be exertion that sit in boxes under beds, mocking New Year’s resolutions that have come and gone. They are weights, physically and metaphorically. That, anyway, is how Toronto-based designer Joseph Aaron Klinsky, of JAK Atelier, saw it. A few summers ago, the chef-turned-renovator-turned-craftsman added exercise to his ever-expanding to-do list but was disappointed by the pedestrian design of most workout gear. And so Klinsky began his quest to—yes—raise the bar. His re-imagined dumbbell is grounding, elemental and beautiful. The soapstone weights are fitted over a wooden bar fashioned from North American black walnut, which will oxidise and darken with age—complete with screw-on end caps so the load can…

STEP NO. 4 Take it Offline

1 MAKE THE FIRST MOVE QUICKLY The first message is online dating’s do-or-die moment. Why? Women initiate interactions only eight percent of the time. So man up. The key is “to come across as an approachable, normal guy she wouldn’t mind having a drink with,” advises Talia Goldstein, CEO of matchmaking service Three Day Rule. 2 SHOW SOME EFFORT The most unappealing chat bubble is the one containing thoughtless openers like “Hi,” “Hello, beautiful” or a lame one-liner. A better approach: “Read her profile and establish a commonality,” says Goldstein. “Maybe you’ve travelled to the same country or have a mutual friend. She’ll scroll through and read messages that indicate you’ve read her profile.” So call out that stunning photo of Machu Picchu or try out one of our approved openers below. 3 ASK…

SEA Made from a single sheet of pre-creased, corrugated polypropylene, the 12-foot-long, 25-inch-wide Oru Bay+ kayak breaks down into a 13-kilo, portfolio-style case that’s small enough to sling over a shoulder, stow behind a couch, or check on a plane. The single-passenger vessel takes about 20 minutes to assemble and is as nimble on the water as its more unwieldy, non-collapsible counterparts. And despite its take-anywhere design, the Bay+ is equipped with an adjustable bucket seat, strap-down deck rigging, and waterproof deck hatch, making it suitable for even the most intrepid multiday tours. 1,03,500; orukayak.com AIR First class feeling a bit too cramped?

THE NEW HEAD TRIP

“YOU MIGHT WANT TO SIT DOWN,” Mike Woods tells me. I recline in an office chair, and a moment later, after whizzing through a space-time tunnel that looks like a tornado made of pure light, I find myself standing on a beach in Hawaii. The colors are vivid and rich, the sunlight dappled. The sound of waves echoes in my ears, palms sway in the wind, and the wide ocean sparkles to the horizon. I am alone. I feel an immediate sense of calm. It’s uncanny, but I would swear my skin is growing warm in the sunlight and a faint breeze is carrying a mist off the water. My heartbeat begins to slow. But as I crane my neck to check the trees for coconuts, the landscape becomes pixelated.…

HIGHWAY HATCHBACK

TO ANSWER A QUESTION YOU’RE PROBABLY THINKING... No, this Baleno has nothing to do with the trusty sedan we got used to in the late ’90s. We’re not quite sure why they decided to christen a completely different car with the same name but we’re not complaining either. There’s a sense of nostalgia attached (clever marketing trick?). The Baleno hatchback is sleek, sexy and reasonably large for its segment. Externally, it’s a pretty goodlooking ride courtesy of: a) newly developed, harmonious liquid-flow design, b) accentuated chrome grilles in the front and rear that give it a sporty luxe vibe, c) stylish 16-inch alloys, d) UV cut glass, and e) powerful projector headlamps with LED daytime running that add a premium feel to the car. It’s available in six metallic colour…

HIGHWAY HATCHBACK

Who is Elli Avram? Mysterious. Everyone I’ve ever met tells me they can’t read me. And I’m a girl who can surprise you, a lot. You actually have quite a long name... Well, my full name is Elisabet Emily Granlund Avramidou. My father’s Greek and in Greek culture, children get their names from the father’s parents. So my name—Elisabet—is from my paternal grandmother. That’s the tradition. Grandlund is my mom’s surname and I use it as my middle name. Avramidou is my father’s surname. I have Emily as part of my name too—that’s my mother’s godmother. But then you tend to get a nickname and mine has always been Elli. If someone calls me Elisabet I feel awkward—I’m not used to people calling me that. You’re half-Swedish and half-Greek. How…

IF THERE WERE AN AWARD FOR THE American with the longest rap sheet in the Middle East, Matthew VanDyke would be a top contender. By his own estimate, the 36-year-old from south Baltimore has been arrested in Iraq no fewer than 20 times, each time for essentially the same offence: being an American with no official business in Iraq. The last time, he and a friend were mistaken for Al Qaeda operatives at an Iraqi Army checkpoint on the road from Kurdistan to Baghdad. They were on motorcycles, headed to the Iraqi capital to begin filming an adventure documentary called Warzone Bikers: Baghdad to Bagram. VanDyke’s bike was damaged during the arrest, and after he defiantly asked the Iraqi soldiers to fix it, the duo were hooded, beaten, and driven…

Have you got to a stage where critical acclaim comes your way so routinely that it is no longer a big deal? Or do reviews still matter to you? Of course they do. Critical acclaim means a lot to me and always will. It’s like a genuine stamp of approval on your work, a reaction from very educated people. It’s really nice that there’s a community out there accurately assessing every element of your performance. This is a feeling that will never end—it feels good that your performances are being liked. Have you incorporated any points raised by critics in your subsequent performances? I think what reviews do is they tell you what shape your character has taken and put your performance in perspective against the rest of the film.…

24 HOURS TO LIVE JAYESH SACHDEVA

How do you want it all to end? With my wife, two kids, mom, dad and my grandparents by my bed-side. Seriously, though...with a harem of bunnies, and six packs (beer or abs, go figure). Describe your last day on Earth. Yam and I (Raj? YamRaj?) go hang out at a bar, get a few drinks, get plastered, with a bunch of fine women we find at the bar. We’re so shit-faced, I pass out at some point, and Yam has to sprinkle some holy water (hic, absinthe) to wake me, only to realise I’m in Heaven. Or Hell. That depends. Well, which one is it? Hell. But isn’t Hell really Heaven? Because I can’t do the mundane bed of pretty roses. Give me fire and a demon horse. Heehaw!…
