This is Metro… Inn Dino for us: The rise of finding friendships through stranger groups
(Image Credits: Instagram) Dozens of people crammed into a room, crowded couches, humming music, and sipping drinks with a group of strangers, is not your typical Saturday night. However, it appears to be a new trend in Indian metro cities, where the seemingly connected environment can sometimes feel lonely. With no conversations about politics, day jobs, appraisals, or even pets, Millennials and Gen Zs are now embracing the new trend of IRL meet-ups, where shared activities allow one to explore the journey of a stranger becoming a friend. The party scenes in Indian metro cities are offering new fun aesthetics. From fake wedding celebrations to stranger hangouts, squad trips, dining experiences, and more. But is it just a fad, or will it be a business model? This momentary happiness from the everyday hustle is not just another well-filtered memory on the grid with social media aesthetics. But it's a spontaneous escape, which will make you understand Naina's emotions from Yeh Jawani Hai Deewani—'Uss raat ki hawa mein jaise nasha sa tha. ' (Image Credits: Getty Images) From signing up on Instagram with a minimal monetary charge to receiving a blur invite with an unknown address, metro city youngsters are all set to meet strangers on Saturday nights. The shadier it sounds, the more interesting the journey gets. Awkward at first with shy gazes and handshakes, the night suddenly shifts from choreographed dance moves and singing lame Bollywood songs to hands-on activities. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like The Most Successful Way of Intraday Trading is "Market Profile" TradeWise Learn More Undo (Image Credits: Safarnamaforlife/Instagram) These groups silently capture the quiet ache of city lives, where love, loss, and longing find a new melody that hums the music of friendship. There are several online groups like Safarnama, Slanup, Misfits, ThriftySocials, and more that take several steps to ensure the safety and comfort of their guests, allowing them to get lost in the rhythm of beats and infectious joy. The introduction of fake weddings Designed for those who love the buzz and vibe of weddings but without the emotional and cultural commitments. In a world where reality TV shows and social media have blurred the lines between authenticity and artificiality, this fake wedding trend is going all ballistic. Yes, you read it right: a fake wedding! (Image Credits: A lavish party filled with couples, friends, and cousins in traditional wedding attire, but without the intention of actually tying the sacred knot. These parties only mimic the structure, style, and vibe of a real wedding, minus the legal paperwork. From choreographed dances to tandoori dishes, ethnic lehengas, and chic invitations, but without the partnership. Well, it's the new party rage in cities like Delhi, Gurgaon, Bangalore, Mumbai, and Pune, where some couples are soft-launching their compatibility, whereas others are just under the guise of commitment. Stranger hangouts to all-India trips Stranger hangouts on rooftops to exploring the country with unknown faces provide another unique opportunity to expand your social circle. Travelling with strangers often leads to memorable moments and shared adventures, which create lasting memories and foster a sense of camaraderie. (Image Credits: Slanup/Instagram) These trips are functional and easy on the pockets, with the hosts often handling the logistics, making it easier for participants to enjoy without the planning hassle. From exploring hidden gems to local cultures, for once, try to become your own Bunny and step out of your comfort zone. Paul Newman's camp heals after fire Parting thoughts Social networking groups are the future of connecting people and promoting face-to-face socialising in metropolitan cities. It may sound lame to some, but these activities do not just help people find their vibe or tribe but also address the loneliness that is experienced in metro lives or even within their own family and friend circles. For many of us, understanding the unknown is a way of life. By deviating from the conventional path of choosing a 9-to-5 desk job and spending your weekends at home, some embark on adventures, embracing the uncertainty that comes with exploring new lives, new stories, new landscapes, new possibilities, and new relationships. (Image Credits: letssocialiseofficial/Instagram) It is in these sweet and chaotic moments of ambiguity that we learn to be resilient and adaptable, but above all, cherish and remember the feeling of being young and vulnerable again. These get-togethers and trips are not for a man's willingness to settle for the dal-chawal of marriage, children, and home in his 20s, but they are an eye-opener in more ways than one. When Naina's chashma comes off. She finds her inner self. So are you all set for yours?

Red Velvet's Joy spills her makeup secrets
Red Velvet's Joy ditches her homebody image for a dazzling glam-up, revealing her 30-product makeup secrets and dual-style charm-relatable and inspiring for all beauty fans! Do you ever find yourself lounging in pajamas, wishing you could magically transform into your most fabulous self for a spontaneous night out? Well, Joy from Red Velvet totally gets you! Our girl Joy, who once wore the crown for 'homebody queen,' just flipped the script and brought some fresh 'ggugguggu' (snazzy, glam, and absolutely spruced up) style into her life-and honestly, same energy, right? Instead of her usual chill sleepwear, Joy's gearing up on the hit show 'I Live Alone.' This isn't just about swapping pajamas for party clothes; Joy's diving deep into the beauty game, showing us how a little effort (and maybe a few dozen makeup products) can seriously boost your outside-the-house confidence. The Ultimate Glow-Up: 30-Step Makeup Routine We all know someone who's got just one compact and a lipstick in their bag. But Joy? She rolls with not one, not two, but THREE makeup pouches. That's right-her arsenal stacks up to a wild 30 products! If you've ever splurged on that one perfect eyeliner or a glittery eyeshadow, just imagine Joy setting up her own mini beauty store in the living room. Wake up, do some home training, then it's full commitment to the makeup game-relatable for anyone who's tried to look their best for the 'gram, a date, or just themselves. Her routine isn't just about looking pretty. It's a whole self-care ritual. Trying out every new trend, blending, contouring, and yes, probably triple-checking her eyeliner symmetry-iconic! For Indian youth who might swap k-beauty sheet masks for a classic rosewater spritz or a last-minute kajal swipe, that sense of putting in the effort is universal. And if you're wondering, the cost of 30 high-end Korean beauty products could easily run you ₹30,000 to ₹50,000 (about 3 to 5 lakh KRW)-now that's dedication! Double Trouble: Two Styles, One Joy Joy isn't just about one look-she's got range! On the episode, you'll see her flip from cheerful, radiant, and loveable to cool, sleek, and a little bit sexy. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Redefine Your Future with a Top Online MBA SRM Online Enquire Now Undo It's every fun-loving youth's closet crisis: do you want to dazzle in brights or slay in all-black chic?

It's THIS!"-honestly, aren't we all searching for that one 'main character' outfit that just hits right? Mirror Reflection: Why We Relate Watching Joy's transformation is like seeing a friend get ready for a big day-her vibe is playful and real, filled with the little routines and worries every young person faces. No matter if you're chillin' in Seoul or hustling in Mumbai, her simple pleasure in self-care and her playful anxieties about style speak to all of us. Joy's journey from a 'homebody' to a confident glam queen feels like the ultimate self-love flex, bridging cultures through blush, eyeliner, and a fearless heart.

Keerthy Suresh's saree drape has THIS denim twist, and that's just one of her many fashion wins
(Image Credits: Instagram) Are you struggling to add some flair to your saree drape this festive season? Take cues from Keerthy Suresh 's wardrobe, as the diva reinvented the saree look with a contemporary edge that we were not ready for. Known for her versatile fashion sense, she's currently ruling the hearts of many one look at a time and we're all in for it. From acing it in ethnic suits to gorgeous dresses, her latest fashion diaries have been absolutely on point. Never missing out on serving fresh fashion goals, Keerthy gave the humble six yards of grace a playful spin that screamed iconic from every angle. She wore a cerulean striped linen saree by Anavila, which retails for Rs 23,500, and has been crafted in linen fabric which features vertical stripes running on the main bodice and pallu. (Image Credits: Instagram) While saree was cerulean, the stripes came in contrasting shades of vibrant blue and gold. She draped it neatly, allowing the pallu to fall in front of her. But the real twist was the sleeveless denim corset-style blouse-top that dominated the gaze and uplifted the ethnic look, with a hint of modish reality. Kiara Advani flaunts her glamorous look in an off-shoulder gown; netizens say 'Pata nhi isko kisne heroine bana diya hai' Reinventing the notes of traditional saree fashion, she proved to be unafraid of change and refused to take the conventional path. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 20 Most Expensive Cars In The World Undo Going all in for a maximalist accessory show, she wore statement gold temple jewellery featuring a thick stack of gold bangles on her wrists with statement rings and layers of gold necklaces, completing the vibrant charm with a delicate pair of matching earrings.

Keerthy accentuated her perfectly sculpted face with a sleek amount of blush, creating a goddess-like glow. She left her natural curls open, leaving us breathless with her fierce commitment to traditional Indian silhouettes while reinventing history with contemporary touches and dramatic styling.
