Anna Ardova, a veteran Russian comedy actor, who always wanted to get a feel of India, is now undergoing Ayurveda treatment in Karnataka’s Udupi. According to her, India is the land spirituality and is the hidden treasure of all happiness.

Speaking to media persons on Saturday she said that she was undergoing Panchakarma treatment at Goswami Treatment Center at Kaup in the district for rejuvenation and to refresh herself and to regain her youth.

Anna said she will promote India and its unique warmth in Russia upon return."The Indians are slow and work at their own pace unlike Russians who hurry up for all little things," she giggled.

She said she is a cheeful person. "An actor is always stressful. I want to relieve stress. Here, I have undergone Virechana Veerechana, which acts a body intoxicant. I have been practising Yoga for many years," she added.

Anna said she has stayed at Kaup for 12 days. "I am deeply in love with the Indian soil and I never want to go back. But I am compelled to go as I have two children," she said.

She said she likes to play the role of Princess Ekaterina "Kitty" Alexandrovna Shcherbatskaya in Russian writer Leo Tolstoy's 'Anna Karenina'.

To a query, she said she had grown up watching Indian Hindi films and was a big buff of old Hindi movies. She has watched Sita Aur Gita seven times. She also liked the film Disco Dancer and watched it several times. She also liked films of Raj Kapoor. “The old Hindi films had grace and positivity, which I find lacking in now,” she said.

Asked how she got attracted to ayurveda, she said she heard a lecture on it some years back at the Indian embassy and that had kindled her desire in ayurveda. She has been practising yoga for years. “I make people happy while doing comic roles. But I thought I required some rest. I decided to come to India and take ayurvedic treatment so that I can go back rejuvenated,” she said.

“Coming to India is like a dream come true to me. I like the people and culture here,” Ms. Ardova said.

Remember social media memes of Chinese companies exporting #BoycottChina hats and t-shirts to India? This time India’s sensational and saffronite TV anchor Arnab Goswami vindicated those memes by hosting an anti-China debate show which was sponsored by Chinese companies!

While the last night's debate was all about boycotting Chinese products in the wake of massacre of over 20 Indian soldiers by their Chinese counterparts in eastern Ladakh, the show was brazenly promoting Chinese products through advertisement placements. 

During the debate, amongst the flashy headlines, there were two brand sponsorships that appeared: VIVO and Xiaomi. Both companies are giant Chinese multinational corporations. 

Twitter user Nirmala Tai, who was among those who spotted this irony, highlighted two instances during the debate where the logo of one of the brands popped up, and one where Xiaomi was found promoting the Mi 10. 

Many Twitterati used Goswami’s some of the favourite words such as ‘hypocrite’ and ‘anti-national’ to target him. They hit out at his channel for accepting sponsorship deals from Chinese brands at a time when anti-China sentiment is strong in the country.
