Welcome back to "Kai Pan Aditi," your ultimate podcast destination where we delve into all things past, present, and future. Today, we have an exciting recap of the major happenings in the first half of May that you don't want to miss!

We'll kick things off with the royal coronation of Prince Charles. Surprisingly, the existence and attention given to kings and queens still baffles me. Without a formal apology for generational trauma and slavery, it's hard to understand their continued validity. But let's move on to lighter topics.

The highly anticipated Met Gala took place on the first Monday of May, but it left us underwhelmed this year. Despite the theme of "Karl Lagerfield: A Line of Beauty," the outfits lacked the drama and extravagance we expected. However, there were a few standout looks, such as Pedro Pascal's captivating aura, Dua Lipa's chic minimalism in a Chanel dress, and Jared Leto's consistently non-boring ensembles.

Speaking of fashion, Alia Bhatt recently became the global brand ambassador for Gucci, garnering mixed reactions from the public. While some celebrate the recognition of Indian talent, others criticize the choice as another instance of nepotism. Gucci, considered overrated by some, has a target demographic of the top 1% to 2% in India, including celebrities, politicians, and business tycoons. Will this partnership influence their buying decisions?

Stay tuned for our next episode, where we'll discuss the ongoing Cannes Film Festival and more exciting updates. Thank you for joining me on "Kai Pan Aditi." Until next time!
