Mumbai, March 7 (IANS) It is a good idea to celebrate a day honoring women, but what about the other 364 days in a year, wonders Bollywood actress Kiara Advani, when we quizzed her about her thoughts on Women's Day.## "Everyday should be Women's Day and everyday should be celebrated. Why just one day? I feel every single day belongs to us!" Kiara told IANS, on the sidelines of promoting her new Netflix film, "Guilty".## Celebrating just one day for women hardly makes sense unless discrimination and crimes against women are curbed and we learn to respect the female gender, but Kiara is happy that at least a conversation has started.## "Earlier these conversations would always be suppressed. We would never have these conversations. Today, we are finally tapping into those uncomfortable conversations. While the rate of rape is alarming in our country, we all need to fight against it. The fact that these conversations have started is one step closer to the ultimate goal. I'm hoping that stricter laws are implemented against these kinds of crimes," said Kiara.## For more and latest news about Bollywood, stay tuned with us.

Mumbai, March 7 (IANS) Actress Kirti Kulhari, while opening up on the concept of Women's Day, said that she isn't personally a fan of allotting a single day in a year to a cause, but is happy that awareness about crimes against women is finally a reality.## "I am personally not a big fan of any of these days that are celebrated as a particular day in the whole year. I wish we learn to celebrate every single day. I think it will be great if we as a society strive towards understanding the real meaning of these days and applying them in our lives," Kirti told IANS.## She feels the change has finally started, whereby we are much more aware as citizens and the laws have become stricter. However, the actress adds that children should be guided right from their growing-up years so that they get a sense of what is right and what is wrong.## "I think these crimes have been happening around us since a very long time but we never came to know about it. Now there is much more awareness among people, the law is stricter, and social media has helped in creating movements out of incidents that have happened. The government is aware of the fact that safety for all is of utmost importance. Everyone is answerable and I think that's a good space to be in," added Kirti.## The "Mission Mangal" actress further said: "While we are working on other aspects to control all this, how a child has been raised, in what environment, with what perspectives and awareness, are some major factors. This is where it all starts and that's where it needs to be dealt with, in every household -- not by telling the child what's to be done but by guiding them, and through parental actions and behavior. Feed the child the right ideas and I think that's the deeper change that we are looking at."## Kirti concluded with her message on Women's Day. "On women's day, I want to tell society that although it seems that sometimes women are overdoing it, trust me they are not. Only if we all had information about what all they have been through, it just seems fair that all of us are waking up and fighting for our own rights. I think we all should open ourselves to the idea of what 'equality' means to so many women. Just providing this faith in your own house will mean so much to the women in your lives."## "Women, in general, are nurturers, they will never leave your side, they will love you and care about you, but you also need to respect their space, freedom, and equality, so that they flourish, nurture their own selves and reach the highest potential," she concluded.## International Women's Day is on March 8.## For more and latest news about Bollywood, stay tuned with us.

London, March 7 (IANS) Researchers have found that social isolation and loneliness could be associated with increased inflammation in the body, though loneliness and isolation should neither be used interchangeably nor grouped together.## For arriving at the findings, published in the journal Neuroscience & Biobehavioural Reviews, researchers analysed 30 previous studies to investigate the link between social isolation and loneliness with inflammation in the body.## "Our results suggest loneliness and social isolation are linked with different inflammatory markers. This shows how important it is to distinguish between loneliness and isolation, and that these terms should neither be used interchangeably nor grouped together," said study researcher Christina Victor, Professor at Brunel University in UK.## According to the researchers, inflammation is the body's way of signaling the immune system to heal and repair damaged tissue, as well as defending itself against viruses and bacteria.## Inflammation can eventually start damaging healthy cells, tissues, and organs and lead to an increased risk of developing non-communicable diseases such as cardiovascular disease.## Researchers found that social isolation, the objective state of being isolated from other people, was associated with the presence of C-reactive protein, a protein substance released into the bloodstream within hours of a tissue injury, and increased levels of the glycoprotein fibrinogen, which is converted into fibrin-based blood clots.## Interestingly, researchers also identified that the link between social isolation and physical inflammation was more likely to be observed in males than females.## Further work is needed to clarify why this might be, but previous work suggests that males and females might respond differently to social stressors, the said.## "The evidence we examined suggests that social isolation may be linked with inflammation, but the results for a direct link between loneliness and inflammation were less convincing," said study researcher Kimberley Smith, Professor at the University of Surrey in UK.## "We believe these results are an important first step in helping us to better understand how loneliness and social isolation may be linked with health outcomes," Smith added.## For more and latest news about Life and Style, stay tuned with us.
