Though Bhatt tested negative for Covid-19, social media users feel she should have exercised restraint
Alia Bhatt
Alia Bhatt was one of the guests at Karan Johar’s infamous home party, which proved to be a super-spreader of the virus. She has been up and about. Bhatt winged her way to Hyderabad for the promotions of SS Rajamouli’s RRR followed by a trip to New Delhi for the motion poster launch of Ayan Mukerji’s Brahmastra. Though Bhatt tested negative for Covid-19, social media users feel she should have exercised restraint. Maheep Kapoor, who attended KJo’s bash, contracted the virus. Her daughter Shanaya initially tested negative, but four days later she undertook another test as a precautionary measure, and the result was positive. Using Shanaya’s example, a section of netizens is driving home the point that Bhatt should have stayed put. In April this year, the actor had contracted the virus, but social media users feel it is better to be safe than sorry.

Halwa ka jalwa
Katrina Kaif is religiously following the traditions of a Punjabi wedding. She explained that as part of the “Chaunka Chardhana ritual” where the bride cooks for the first time at her in-laws’ home, she made sooji ka halwa for Sham, Veena, Vicky and Sunny Kaushal.
Kat shared a picture of the sweet dish and wrote, “Maine banaya”, which hubby dearest relished and referred to as the “best halwa ever”. Kat has changed her Instagram display picture, which now features her with Vicky from their wedding ceremony. It is her way of expressing her love for the Punjabi munda.

He completed the family portrait by including his babies — pet dogs, Bailey and Sia. The actor also unarchived all his posts, which had disappeared earlier this week. As expected it was a publicity gimmick for his upcoming film, Attack.
