Bar tending at its best and ifin its most alluring form lets you sip down some of the sexiest cocktails and mocktails. lt’s the game to satiate and intoxicate the crowd with a lil bit juggling from shaking to mixing for a perfect magic drink’ that makes you feel just out of this world. A drink wouldn’t be more gratifying if it’s served and presented in the bestest of its ways.
Myna Baruah (20 yrs) a young fair lady from Assam stands with her head held high and with the attitude and confidence of doing something that not many dare to go ahead with at the Bar lounge of Dream Hotel. With a Frankfin Certification in Hospitality Industry she entered the Bar tending arena. After having an initial training in the professional tending tricks now she handles confidently, the
parts that initially ran a chill down her spine. Being a small town chick from Guwahati and yet showing the audacity of playing with those posh bottles in a very easy going and awe inspiring way is what definitely sets her apart from the crowd.
“Being a perfect mixologist is not just the only thing that takes, to be the crowd puller” says Myna. One must know all the bartending basics as the various mixes that go into the drink, the different glasses that are used to serve and also the correct proportion that should be kept while making a drink. Above all what a perfect bar tender should be aware of is how s/he should tend his bar, be it
by serving the drinks in a very friendly manner or by being a good listener at the bar counter. By being an anonymous friend all ready with open ears to let you drop in your secrets or by lending a shoulder for helping you get away from your sorrows and painful memories and enjoy the booze full moments, chilling for a while.
Bar lounge is not just for men now a days it’s for women too. The regular lounge party’s on Wednesdays (The Pink Ladies Night) in Dream Hotel (Cochin) shows how we are catching up. “’twas quite a challenge initially but now’ know exactly the how’s and what’s that go into being a perfect barmaid” says Myna. With professional world champions in juggling like Ankit Negandhi dropping in to tend the
bar counter,dj Savio and his group to get set hold on the pancake tuming section and many international and national dj’s and bartenders to spice and steam up the lounge it justgets harder for one to say no to this lounge. The way she swings and plays with the
poshest of bottles adding the cocktail gamishers with hertwinkJing eyes and serving them with even more panache to it will make you feel like laying all your assets at stake forthis one drink.
The Ladyof the lounge says she loves her job and would like to learn much more and make her own mark in this male oriented domain. Making one of her favourite and most in demand cocktails the cranberry she revealed one ofthe funny incidents that
had happened to her during the initial days at the bar lounge where she went on serving a Mojito (a white rum based drink with a mix of lime slices, sugar syrup, mint leaves pressed) to one of her customers who repeatedly expressed his concern not to provide him with an alcohol mix drink. Luckily the bar manager came out of the blues that moment as a savior and she slyly changed the drink mix.
So it’s all about making your own identity in what you do and not blaming about what you are into because “‘There happens to be a devil in every berry of a grape”.

Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh are eagerly awaiting the arrival of their first child, due later this month. In anticipation of this joyous milestone, the couple recently shared a series of heartwarming photos from their pregnancy photoshoot. The pictures beautifully capture mom-to-be Deepika flaunting her baby bump, while others showcase the couple sharing joyful moments, their smiles wide and laughter contagious.

In the photos, Deepika stuns in various outfits. She rocks mom jeans paired with a lacy bra and cardigan in the first few shots, exuding casual elegance. In another set, she channels her inner boss lady in a sleek black pantsuit. A third look features Deepika in a see-through maxi dress, where she is captured twirling and lost in thought. For her final look, she dons a black, see-through bodycon dress, posing alongside her husband Ranveer in a series of intimate and stylish shots. The couple captioned their post with a few simple emojis, but that was enough to ignite a flurry of reactions from fans.

Deepika and Ranveer first announced their pregnancy on February 29, just before attending Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant’s pre-wedding bash in Jamnagar. Their announcement featured a postcard with the word “September” and adorable drawings of baby accessories. Following the news, Deepika faced criticism and accusations of faking her baby bump. However, with this stunning photoshoot, she has gracefully silenced her detractors, proving once again that she is in full command of her narrative.
