Shah Rukh Khan: Happy to hear that so many are enjoying The Lion King

Shah Rukh Khan and his son Aryan Khan have dubbed for the Hindi version of The Lion King. While SRK has dubbed for the voice of Mufasa, Aryan has dubbed for the character of Simba. The movie has received mixed reviews but is doing quite well at the box office.

Shah Rukh Khan took to Twitter to express that he is very happy that people are enjoying the film. He also thanked the other actors who have dubbed for the movie. SRK tweeted, “So happy to hear that so many r enjoying Lion King. A special thanx to my coactors & friends for bringing this film to life in Hindi. @imsanjaimishra @shreyastalpade1 & the amazing @AshishVid  & #asrani sahib. Thx for making me & Aryan sound good!”


While talking about the film, SRK had earlier said, "The Lion King is that one movie that my entire family loves the most and it holds a very special place in our hearts. As a father, I can totally relate with Mufasa and the endearing relationship he shares with his son - Simba. The legacy of Lion King is timeless, and being a part of this iconic re-imagining with my son Aryan makes it extra special for me. We are most excited that AbRam is going to watch this.”

Well, SRK’s fans are quite happy to hear his voice in the film. But we are sure they are keen to know which will be his next film as an actor. SRK was last seen on the big screen in 2018 release Zero which failed to make a mark at the box office. A few weeks ago, while talking about why he is not signing any films, the actor had said, "Usually what happens is when your one film is coming to an end, you begin work on your next film and I get involved within 3-4 months. But this time I am just not feeling like. My heart doesn't allow me to. I just felt that I should rather take time out, watch films, listen to stories and read more books. Even my kids are in their college stage, my daughter is going to college and my son is about to finish his studies. So I just want to spend more time with my family.”

Reportedly, SRK will next be seen in Rajkumar Hirani’s next. However, there’s no official announcement about the film.

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.
