Watch: Game of Thrones Season 6

Is Jon Snow really dead? What happens to Arya? Where are Daenerys’ dragons? Do Sansa and Theon escape Winterfell? Okay, that last question was answered by one of the many clips released by HBO. And you probably know the answer, if you’ve read the books already.

The sixth season premieres on U.S. television on April 24, and the sanitised version for Indian viewers (courtesy our Censor Board) will broadcast on April 26 at 10 p.m. on Star World Premiere HD.

In the introduction, she calls it a “vivid memoir of food and family, survival and triumph” that traces her journey from “an immigrant childhood to a complicated life in front of the camera”. From her early life in India to her relationship with Salman Rushdie and beyond, she sums it all up candidly in the book.

Listen:Santana IV

Carlos Santana is back with his signature sound, and, in this album, has brought together the band Santana: guitarist Neal Schon, drummer Michael Shrieve, keyboardist Gregg Rolie and percussionist Michael Carabello among others. No surprise then, that a video on the making of the album looks more like a jam session.

The 75-minute-long album is testament to how these talented musicians have matured on their individual journeys, and brings together the best of their music. It’ll take you on a reminiscing trip and keep your foot tapping.
