You know that thing you do where you delay going to bed to indulge in activities that you couldn’t find time for during the day? Whether it’s mindlessly scrolling through Reels, binge-watching an entire season of Succession, or partying until exhaustion, just because, we’ve all been guilty of it at some point or the other.
If you’ve ever wondered what happens to your body when you forgo those seven hours of valuable sleep, we’re taking a closer look at the link between curfews and consequences and why the latter deserves more of your attention.
It Will Flip The Switch On Your Mood
From restlessness and poor alertness to fatigue and dizziness, lack of sleep can have a significant impact on your overall well-being, affecting various aspects of your daytime functioning. The absence of sleep disrupts the brain’s ability to regulate emotions, resulting in a state where you feel emotions more intensely.
The Anxiety-Stress Meter Will Reach New Heights
Of course, pulling an all-nighter doesn’t put you in one of those dandy moods the morning after – but, when you’re low on sleep, your body is forced to rely on stress hormones such as adrenaline and cortisol. This disturbs your internal clock, putting you in a loop of feeling stressed or anxious.
You Will Find Yourself At The Junk Food Junction
Lack of sleep can increase the excretion of ghrelin, a hormone that regulates hunger – this can lead to an increase in appetite, making you more prone to reaching out for high-calorie and sugary foods such as doughnuts, pizzas and potato chips. Ironically, while these foods will give you a quick energy fix, they will also make it harder to stay awake, leaving you in a not-so-pretty cycle of lethargy and cravings.
Your Memory Might Take A Hike
You need an appropriate amount of sleep to absorb and recall new information, which is key to forming new memories. So, a night out in town does have the potential to affect cognitive functions such as concentration, decision-making and even the creation of false memories.

Alia Bhatt's Bespoke Ring at the Met Gala Was From Malabar Gold & Diamond
One of the most coveted actors, especially in terms of her celebritydom, in recent times has been Alia Bhatt. Her recent appearance at the Met Gala cemented the fact for anyone who had any semblance of doubt. What’s more, is that over the last few years, the 30 year old actor is not only known for the magic she’s continuously creating on-screen but also off of it with her unparalleled style. She’s the epitome of the modern young Indian woman – a narrative more and more brands are working towards having to be able to relate to their new-age female audiences. So, when Alia Bhatt was announced as the new ambassador of Malabar Gold & Diamonds – a brand that has been catering to the jewellery needs of contemporary Indian women – it seemed just perfect.
Alia’s personal style is feminine yet not flowery. Powerful yet relatable. Stylish and extremely sophisticated. She’s also someone who has almost always turned to jewellery to accessorise her looks. Just take her Met look for instance. The actor wore an exaggerated basque waist ball gown, completely embellished in pearls, designed by designer Prabal Gurung. And though the outfit itself was breathtaking, her jewellery was having its own moment, especially the ring she wore on the index finger of her right hand.
The ring in question was from Malabar Gold & Diamonds, and was custom designed for her by fine jewellery designer Alice Cicolini. It boasts of a central diamond that is concentrically surrounded with several other smaller diamonds and finally a ring of pearls to complete the piece and tie the piece with the theme and to pay homage to the designer Karl Lagerfeld whose love for pearls is, at this point, a matter of public knowledge. The ring became the ultimate symbol of global style sensibilities and the finery of Indian craftsmanship, and was displayed at one of the biggest fashion events of the year.
After the phenomenal success of Malabar Gold & Diamond campaign #MakeWayForTheBride of 2021, having Alia Bhatt be front and centre of the 2023 campaign #ShowTheWay alongside modern-traditionalist Indian brides is befitting. Especially since the actor has been showing the way (and paving it) for the new-age Indian women.
