Welcome to 2012! If you didn’t see our farewell to 2011 post, #failonyou. Luckily we are exploring one of my favorites off the list. Put down that poha, lest you choke on unnecessary carbs. That’s right booboos, we are talking “Chikini Chameli!” First things first. Kat, what the eff happened to yo face, boo? Hopefully Salman didn’t  beat on you and you just got fillers. And hopefully the fillers are

There are so many fizool recaps of 2011. Political, economic, blah blah blah. Let’s talk about what really counts! What were the most thumka-licious tracks or 2011? Here’s a list that should most definitely be on your ipod this NYE! If your party is fail, we will let you and your friends in for free to the next Desilicious party on Jan 21. But seriously, would we ever musically let

I don’t know about everyone else, but there are definitely a few nights that are a little more than blurry because of external substances that became internal and  consequently effed with my memory. Luckily for me, (almost all of) my experiences were self-induced (and they may or may not have been the last four Saturdays). Sadly for the hottie in this video, his actions and memory have been altered by

And by retro I mean 80s-90s (Does it scare anyone else to think that kids today think of the 90s as old?)  Along with the slap bracelets, neon, denim jackets and the resurgence of loose fitting men’s pants (thank god!), Bollywood too is all about the “old is gold” sentiment. Every other movie these days is a throwback to the

Have you caught the commercials during your favorite Hulu show about HIV in the South Asian community? If not, you’re clearly not watching the right shows.

One of the

How do you feel about Shilpa Shetty as a gay icon? She’s always been one in my dancey-Bolly brain with her undeniably fabulousness. Everything from the super lusterous locks (sure, that’s not a weave…and I look like Hrithik Roshan) to her liquid liner rimmed eyes, to her may-as-well-be lethal thumka, to her very own Bollywood love story, screams for every gay man to want to be her…or at least be

Don’t miss this reading on Sunday November 20th that is the result of a 4-week writing workshop held this past Fall. Following the success of this workshop series being presented in LA and SF with culminating readings, SALGA sponsored this year’s event to provide members of the South Asian LGBTIQQ community a platform to share their experiences in a safe and creative environment. A strong believer in the power of
