Many families have a hard time trying to decide what foods they should be eating and which ones to avoid. The problem is a lot of the nutritional information out there is contradictory. This, along with the need to save time, to make quick lunches or dinners makes many families susceptible to making the wrong food choices.

Of more than 300 new-car models available for 2017, Kelley Blue Book’s expert editors initially narrowed the field to a few dozen Best Buy Award contenders in 12 major vehicle categories and then spent several weeks testing and evaluating all of the finalists head-to-head to ultimately determine the winners.

Royal Challenge Sports Drink inspires people to be unafraid of consequences and make bold choices. Through the ‘Made of Bold’ video, Virat Kohli and Royal Challenge Sports Drink have come together to pay tribute to the bold journey of Indian athletes who play bold against all odds and need to be given the much deserved recognition and spotlight.
These beautiful opening lines from the ‘Made of Bold’ video, narrated by Virat Kohli and written by Sonal Dabral, give a perspective on the behind-the-scenes challenges of Indian athletes, who strive for success against all odds in a country that primarily worships cricket. They don’t have packed stadiums with screaming fans, but they still give it their all, every single day not for a tour, not for a tournament but for 4 years at a stretch and against all odds. Only because they are ‘made of bold’.
“Every successful athlete has a journey made up of a bold spirit, grit and mental strength. I took up cricket at an early age and today it has given me people’s love and respect. There are champions in the country who have taken up sports other than cricket but the fact is that their commitment and sacrifices are not known to many. They silently endure the test of times in their sporting journey putting a lot at stake and unafraid of consequences. They are indeed “Made of Bold”. This video is an attempt to give everyone a glimpse into the never-say-die spirit of these athletes.” says Indian star cricketer, Virat Kohli.
