Alia Bhatt puts all rumours of her not willing to star in "Aashiqui 3" to rest!

Alia Bhatt is one of the most accomplished actresses of Bollywood, who has proved her acting mettle film after film. She has been winning hearts right from the time she debuted in the industry with Karan Johar's "Student Of The Year".

The immensely talented actress is currently busy shooting for Meghna Gulzar's forthcoming film "Raazi" which also stars Vickey Kaushal. She will follow it up with Zoya Akhtar's "Gully Boys" opposite Ranveer Singh and then "Dragon" starring Ranbir Kapoor.


Her fans were delighted when the news of her starring in "Aashiqui 3" opposite Sidharth Malhotra broke the internet. The previous two instalments of the franchise, financed by her father Mahesh Bhatt, were mega-hits at the box office and the audience was expecting something similar from the third part as well. But before the film was ever announced, reports of Alia not being interested in the project surfaced and spread like a wildfire. But now, the actress has come out to refute all such baseless rumours.

Alia took to her Twitter account to clarify things. She wrote, “Never ever said anything about not wanting to do Aashiqui 3! No idea where this is coming from..”

Her next tweet said, “Aashiqui is a very special brand & working with my father for the first time is equally special! All things take their time. This will too”

After hearing these positive words from Alia, we are sure her fans will be overjoyed!

Communal tables are back – and Gen Z is leading the way

Highlights:

  • Communal dining tables are becoming popular again, especially among Gen Z.
  • Surveys show younger diners enjoy meeting strangers, while many older diners prefer privacy.
  • Shared tables help tackle loneliness and encourage real-life conversation in a digital age.
  • Restaurants are adapting with supper clubs, shared platters and “come alone” nights.
  • The trend reflects a wider shift toward connection, experience and affordable social dining.

Walk into a place to eat and there is just one huge table. Everyone there is a stranger, talking, laughing, passing bowls around like they already know each other. For some older diners, the setup feels odd. It can come across as too open, almost like someone stepping into your personal space. But younger diners see it differently. For Gen Z, that setup is the fun part, the chance that the person next to you might turn into a friend, or at least a good conversation.

A 2025 Resy survey shows a clear generational split: 90% of Gen Z enjoy communal tables, compared with 60% of Baby Boomers. Beyond numbers, the social benefits are real; making friends, striking up conversations, even finding a date. For a generation often described as “the loneliest,” dining together offers a rare sense of connection.
