Alt-J

The band, whose sound is often called indie rock, sprung from near oblivion to a rock hard fan base in India, especially since they announced that they were going to take Bangalore by storm this weekend. Contrary to gossip and speculation, they aren’t really fascinated with keyboard shortcuts or with triangles, aren’t trying to confuse you with their lyrics and do want to make good music. In keyboardist and backing vocalist Gus Unger’s own words, “We’re just simple guys from Leeds, who got to know each other, started a band and then muddled through it and magicked a Mercury award!” Take a look at what else he’s revealing.

Radhika Vaz

New York-based comedian Radhika Vaz was born and brought up in Bombay and moved around a lot — enabling her to (as she writes on her website) “embarrass myself and move on.” Her routines are witty and filled with topics which are generally considered a bit taboo.

We find out more from this crazy comic...

The result is When Patrick met Kylie — A Love of Food Story, a food show that airs from Monday to Friday, at 8pm on FOX Life.We spoke to the cheerful couple about the show, their journey and how they fell for each other while filming it.
