NDTV29-05-2025
New Delhi:
Are Tara Sutaria and Veer Pahariya the new Bollywood couple? Well, well, the rumoured pair are reportedly "going out for dates" and "figuring things out" at the moment.
A source told ETimes that Tara Sutaria and Veer Pahariya started dating a while back. 'The two started dating just a couple of months ago. And they are trying to figure things out. They often keep going out for dates,' the source was quoted as saying.
Not to forget, Tara Sutaria and Veer Pahariya turned showstoppers at the 25th Lakme Fashion Week, held at Jio World Convention between March 26 and 30. The duo walked the ramp for British brand ASOS's "A Summer of Style" collection. They made a case in contrasting black and white outfits.
Tara Sutaria picked a V-neck, long and flowy black lace gown. She paired the dramatic silhouette with minimal accessories and on-point makeup.
As for Veer Pahariya, the Skyforce actor made his runway debut in a crisp white suit and ivory trousers.
Veer Pahariya was previously rumoured to be dating Sara Ali Khan. The duo shared screen space in the Abhishel Anil Kapur and Sandeep Kewlani directorial, Skyforce. Akshay Kumar and Nimrit Kaur were also a part of the project.
Veer Pahariya had opened up about his dating rumours with Sara Ali Khan. The actor, in a conversation with Zoom, said, 'I was 20 when gossip about my relationships made headlines. I was not in public life, so they never asked my opinion. What was on the internet was the truth for people. I was affected by that, but what can be done? Now, I don't care.'
Veer Pahariya added, 'It's fine now. I signed up for it.'
Meanwhile, in 2019, during an interview with Filmfare, Sara Ali Khan confirmed dating Veer Pahariya in the past. She said, 'He's (Veer) the only one I have dated. I have had no other boyfriends in my life.'
For the unversed, Veer Pahariya is the grandson of Sushil Kumar Shinde, the former Chief Minister of Maharashtra, and the son of Mumbai-based businessman Sanjay Pahariya. Veer is the brother of Shikhar Pahariya, who is rumoured to be dating Janhvi Kapoor.
Meanwhile, Tara Sutaria was in a relationship with Aadar Jain, Ranbir Kapoor's cousin. After they broke up in 2023, Aadar got married to their common friend Alekha Advani in February.

Ever been to a fake wedding? It's the newest party trend in town

What's not to like about weddings? The food, the dance, the music, the gossip... But for those seeking a more relaxed experience without perhaps the unpleasant bump-ins, forced conversations or long queues for food, there's a new trend on the block — fake wedding events. It's quite simply a wedding without the bride and groom or the attendant stress and pressures of the ceremony. 'People want to dress up and go to a wedding. And at our parties, we don't want folks to simply turn up, have a few drinks, dance and leave. We want to give them the entire wedding experience — family-like bonding, great food, Insta-worthy photo-ops, and so on,' says Ayaan Vaid, co-founder of Delhi-based events company, Jumma Ki Raat. The company is one of the first to organise ticketed wedding-themed parties in India. Since its launch in October 2024, Jumma Ki Raat has organised two fake sangeet parties, the recent one held just last week. New age partying? Earlier this month, an invite to one such 'fake wedding' in Noida went viral on social media. The artfully designed invitation promised 'live band and dhol' and a complimentary alcoholic beverage while asking guests to be attired in traditional wear. Entry prices ranged from ₹999 to ₹1,499. The idea seems to have takers across India — bar and restaurant chain Lord of the Drinks organised fake sangeet nights at some of its outlets in Madhya Pradesh recently, as did Bengaluru's Raahi Neo Kitchen & Bar with a 'Big Fat Fake Indian Sangeet'. Bengaluru-based Third Place, Kolkata-based event organiser Blackout, and Auckland-based BollySphere have welcomed guests to similar events as well. A window into culture The fake wedding trend probably began in the U.S., where South Asian student bodies across campuses such as University of Washington Bothell and Cornell University have been organising mock wedding events for years. 'It's a way for students to experience South Asia beyond classrooms and textbooks,' says Avneet Mehr, a third-year student of biology and sociology at Cornell. This year's annual shaadi extravaganza (around two to three days long), complete with a mock bride and groom, organised by Cornell's South Asian Council, was attended by nearly 500 students, adds Mehr. Time to collab When you walk into a faux wedding event (with an average runtime of four to five hours), there's everything you need to make it seem real — elaborate decorations, marigold flowers, live bands, mehendi artists, photo booths and even an 'astro' parrot picking out fun cards to determine the romantic fate of the party-goers. 'Pinterest and social media pages of wedding planners are my go-to places for research when it comes to décor ideas. I even picked up the idea for gol-gappa shots online,' says Alisha Chouri, one of the founders of Mumbai-based Saddi Galli. The two-month-old brand has so far hosted three 'Scam Sangeet' events in Nagpur and Mumbai. Goa, Kolkata and Miami are their next stops. One of Saddi Galli's fake sangeet events, which was attended by nearly 800 guests, says Chouri, saw the company bring cosmetics brand Lakmé on board as a hairstyling and make-up partner. Tickets for such events can start at ₹299 and go up to ₹7,000. At Third Place's Sangeet Socials, collaborations take a musical turn. 'A songwriter friend of mine, actually released his original at our first Sangeet Social last week. It was a nice addition to the programme, to set the overall vibe of the event,' says Anurag Pandey, founder and CEO. He says that these events, while being all about fun and partying, must also result in a curated, thoughtful and meaningful experience. And to achieve that, the Sangeet Social isn't an 'open for all event'. Once the guests (capped at 40) sign up to attend the event (tickets are priced at ₹1,911 inclusive of food, drinks, games, and activities), they're expected to take a personality test, after which they are added to a waiting list. 'We organise the events in a way people can truly connect. We use an algorithm to thoughtfully curate groups and maintain diversity and confirm the guest's participation a day before the event,' says Pandey. It's also perhaps why the first Sangeet Social event, which included games like antakshari and a mehendi corner, kept things sober. 'At our event, people aren't just dancing at a bar and heading home drunk,' adds Pandey. Guests also walked out with a shagun ka lifaafa (gift envelope) that contained coupons to Barmen, the official drinks partner of the event. Not just a Gen Z affair It isn't just Gen Z flocking to such events for the promise of a good time. Vaid says their fake sangeet events (tickets priced between ₹800 and ₹3,000) have had encouraging participation from people in their 30s as well as early 40s. 'Honestly, we all want an excuse to dress up and dance to Bollywood music. We don't really get that opportunity often, especially in a safe space,' says 29-year-old Delhi-based businessman Anant Gupta, who has attended all of Jumma Ki Raat's events so far. Mumbai-based businessman Stanley Lawrence, 55, made a group outing out of Saddi Galli's Scam Sangeet event with his friends and colleagues. 'I was just curious to know what this fake sangeet was all about. But I didn't feel out of place. Not once did we see any of the kids there look at us and wonder why people of our age were at the party,' he says. Adds founder Chouri, 'One of the slightly older guests we hosted even told us he had more fun at our scam sangeet than he did at his own sangeet years ago. But are we trivialising tradition for the sake of a good time on the dance floor? It's the exact opposite, argues Vaid. 'We are in no way disrespecting our culture. If something like this was done abroad, people would've praised it for promoting Indian culture,' he says. For Chouri, who has other wedding-related event ideas in the pipeline already, there's so much the theme can do to quench the party-goer's appetite. But Pandey says that the trend might run its course soon, unless thoughtful curation draws focus. 'If you just host events, you won't be able to sustain it. But if you curate it and add nice themes to it, it will stick around.' The writer and theatre artist is based between Bengaluru and Delhi.

When your dad is one of the richest men on Earth, your dating life tends to spark a little interest. That's exactly what's happening with Phoebe Gates, the youngest daughter of Bill Gates and Melinda French Gates, who's been quietly making headlines not for her startup moves this time, but for her relationship with none other than Arthur Donald — yes, that last name should ring a bell. Who is Arthur Donald? Arthur Donald may not have the paparazzi flash of a Hollywood star, but his lineage is iconic. He's the grandson of Paul McCartney — as in Sir Paul, the legendary Beatle. Arthur is the eldest son of Mary McCartney, Paul's daughter with his first wife Linda, and was born in 1999. He's got that cool British charm, a low-key vibe, and reportedly went to Harvard, where he majored in history. So yes, we're talking elite brains and Beatles blood — a combo that practically writes its own rom-com. Phoebe Gates: More than a billionaire's daughter If you've been following Phoebe Gates, you know she's not just chilling in billion-dollar yachts. The 21-year-old Stanford grad is a tech entrepreneur, fashion innovator, and rising voice in sustainable fashion through her AI-powered shopping platform Phia.

Basically, she's got ambition, intellect, and the kind of grounded presence that screams 'I'm not here just for the inheritance.' Phoebe Gates confirmed the relationship recently Phoebe Gates made things Instagram-official, last year, with a sweet photo captioned, 'My boyfriend, Arthur, giving me a lift post-ceremony,' showing Arthur Donald playfully carrying her on his back. The dating buzz first kicked off back in October 2023, as per reports, when Phoebe shared snaps from her Paris trip on Instagram — and yep, Arthur was tagged in one of the pics and spotted in the background. That was enough to set the rumor mill spinning. Later on, the two were seen together at the 'Feud: Capote vs. the Swans' premiere, according to Page Six. And when asked about it in an interview? Phoebe played it cool and kept things private, offering zero details about her relationship status.

Mohit Suri's 'Saiyaara' BEATS Aamir Khan's 'Sitaare Zameen Par' at box office; Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda starrer hits Rs 220 crore mark worldwide

Mohit Suri 's romantic drama Saiyaara, starring debutants Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda , has crossed another major milestone at the box office by surpassing the lifetime collections of Aamir Khan 's 'Sitaare Zameen Par'. With a net total of Rs 172.50 crore in India within its first week, 'Saiyaara' has officially taken its place as the current fourth-highest-earning Bollywood film of 2025, according to sacnilk. Aamir Khan's emotional drama had previously closed its theatrical run with approximately Rs 160.62 crore in domestic collections, a record that the romantic drama has now overtaken in its 7-day run. The movie now trails only behind 'Chhaava', which earned an estimated Rs 601 crore, Housefull 5, which occupies the second spot with a collection of Rs 183 crore, and 'Raid 2' which earned Rs 173 crore. Globally, the film has recorded even more impressive numbers. With an India gross of Rs 183 crore and an overseas gross of Rs 37 crore, Saiyaara has achieved a total worldwide gross of Rs 220 crore. With no major Hindi releases lined up in the coming days and strong, sustained occupancy, Saiyaara is well on its way to crossing the Rs 200 crore India net mark and potentially breaching Rs 250 crore worldwide if momentum holds in its second weekend. The film's success is being attributed to a combination of heartfelt storytelling, striking visuals, and strong lead performances. Director Suri, known for emotionally charged romances like Aashiqui 2 and Ek Villain, brings a fresh pairing of Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda and has particularly impressed viewers, with many praising the chemistry between the two newcomers. Music has also played a pivotal role in the film's popularity. The film's title track has struck a chord globally, recently entering the Top 5 on the Global Spotify charts with over 4.9 million streams.
