Confidence comes from having great skin: Tabu
Mumbai, Nov 10 (IANS) Actress Tabu, who feels veteran actress and politician Hema Malini is the eternal beauty of Bollywood, says confidence comes from having great skin.
“Fortunately, and unfortunately for my profession, I don’t have a choice but to be camera-ready and for that, I think confidence comes from having great skin and that comes from combination of things. My mother put a lot of importance on us eating right as kids,” Tabu told IANS.
“She made sure we ate plenty of fruits, and greens. Now, I ensure that I follow the most important steps for skincare which includes eating healthy, staying hydrated, exercising regularly and most importantly, moisturisation,” added the actress, who is the brand ambassador of skincare brand Vaseline.
Do you think that lifestyle and diet have a huge role to play when it comes to having great skin?
“I believe that you need to enjoy a healthy and happy lifestyle and for this, food and sleeping habits play a very important role. Drinking enough water or fluids and eating right is important to take care of your skin and health,” said the “Golmaal Again” star.
“I exercise regularly and particularly enjoy long walks and meditation to maintain a positive attitude, I do not believe in fad diets, they do not help you in the long term and cause more harm than good when undertaken without the right guidance,” she added.
For Tabu, Hema Malini is Bollywood’s eternal beauty.
“Hands down, it’s Hema Maliniji. She is the ultimate beauty and every time I meet her, I cannot stop staring. Her skin is always glowing,” she said.
Sharing her take on skincare beauty treatments, Tabu said: “I don’t enjoy facials or chemical body scrubs. I prefer making my own body scrubs. I use sea salt and petroleum jelly as a pre-bath exfoliator.”
Tabu, who started her career in 1980 with “Bazaar” with a small part, says Vaseline comes in handy to her in dealing with dry skin, especially when she shoots in cold climates.
“I am a big believer that skin is a reflection of one’s health and hence it should not be taken for granted.”

International online casino Casino Days has published a report sharing their internal data on what types and brands of devices are used to play on the platform by users from the South Asian region.
Such aggregate data analyses allow the operator to optimise their website for the brands and models of devices people are actually using.
The insights gained through the research also help Casino Days tailor their services based on the better understanding of their clients and their needs.
Desktops and Tablets Lose the Battle vs Mobile
The primary data samples analysed by Casino Days reveal that mobile connections dominate the market in South Asia and are responsible for a whopping 96.6% of gaming sessions, while computers and tablets have negligible shares of 2.9% and 0.5% respectively.
The authors of the study point out that historically, playing online casino was exclusively done on computers, and attribute thе major shift to mobile that has unfolded over time to the wide spread of cheaper smartphones and mobile data plans in South Asia.
“Some of the reasons behind this massive difference in device type are affordability, technical advantages, as well as cheaper and more obtainable internet plans for mobiles than those for computers,” the researchers comment.
Xiaomi and Vivo Outperform Samsung, Apple Way Down in Rankings
Chinese brands Xiaomi and Vivo were used by 21.9% and 20.79% of Casino Days players from South Asia respectively, and together with the positioned in third place with a 18.1% share South Korean brand Samsung dominate the market among real money gamers in the region.
Cupertino, California-based Apple is way down in seventh with a user share of just 2.29%, overshadowed by Chinese brands Realme (11.43%), OPPO (11.23%), and OnePlus (4.07%).
Huawei is at the very bottom of the chart with a tiny share just below the single percent mark, trailing behind mobile devices by Motorola, Google, and Infinix.
The data on actual phone usage provided by Casino Days, even though limited to the gaming parts of the population of South Asia, paints a different picture from global statistics on smartphone shipments by vendors.
Apple and Samsung have been sharing the worldwide lead for over a decade, while current regional leader Xiaomi secured their third position globally just a couple of years ago.
Striking Android Dominance among South Asian Real Money Gaming Communities
The shifted market share patterns of the world’s top smartphone brands in South Asia observed by the Casino Days research paper reveal a striking dominance of Android devices at the expense of iOS-powered phones.
On the global level, Android enjoys a comfortable lead with a sizable 68.79% share which grows to nearly 79% when we look at the whole continent of Asia. The data on South Asian real money gaming communities suggests that Android’s dominance grows even higher and is north of the 90% mark.
Among the major factors behind these figures, the authors of the study point to the relative affordability of and greater availability of Android devices in the region, especially when manufactured locally in countries like India and Vietnam.
“And, with influencers and tech reviews putting emphasis on Android devices, the choice of mobile phone brand and OS becomes easy; Android has a much wider range of products and caters to the Asian online casino market in ways that Apple can’t due to technical limitations,” the researchers add.
The far better integration achieved by Google Pay compared to its counterpart Apple Pay has also played a crucial role in shaping the existing smartphone market trends.
