Will Aamir Khan play the lead role in Mogul? Here’s what producer Bhushan Kumar has to say

It was a couple of years ago when Bhushan Kumar announced the film Mogul, a biopic on his father Gulshan Kumar. Akshay Kumar was supposed to play the lead role. But, it was last year when Aamir Khan replaced Akshay Kumar as the male lead and also came on board as the co-producer of the film. However, after sexual harassment allegations against the director Subhash Kapoor, Aamir opted out of the film.

Recently, while talking to a daily, Bhushan Kumar confirmed that Aamir is still co-producing the film but didn’t reveal if the actor will play the lead role in the biopic or not. He said, “I can’t say anything about it right now. Now, I am very comfortable about it because I know the film is happening and with the best person who looks (laughs) like my father. There is no ambiguity in that. So, I am very happy about that.”


“It’s an important and emotional film for us and that is why it is taking time. We want to make it the best. I am not in a hurry for it because it is not a commercial film for me. Whatever comes, I will have to donate it. That is our family’s thought process since the beginning. We will be announcing the actor very soon. That actor definitely needs seven-eight months to adapt into it. The film will start somewhere in 2020,” he added.

Now well, let’s wait and watch which actor will be seen as Gulshan Kumar on the big screen.

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.
