Javed Akhtar’s house was abuzz with stars on Tuesday night as the veteran lyricist celebrated his 72nd birthday
on January 17.
Farhan & Zoya Akhtar invited all their close friends
& surprised Javed saab at his residence. From evergreen actress Rekha to
Hrithik Roshan, Aditi Rao Hydari, Kalki and many other Bollywood biggies, all
graced the occasion.
While we are sure, Bollywood stars’ attendance must have
surprised Javed Akhtar but what surprised us was Shraddha Kapoor's absence from
the party. Shraddha, who returned home on Tuesday morning after completing one of her professional commitments, was
missing from Javed Akhtar’s party which was interestingly happening at a
stone’s throw away distance from her Juhu residence. Now isn’t she
Farhan’s ‘special friend’? Even Aditi Rao Hydari who was earlier linked up with
Farhan, was present at the bash! So, we got digging to find out the reason!

SpotboyE.com has learnt that Farhan Akhtar surely wanted
his apparent ‘close friend’ Shraddha Kapoor to be a part of his family
celebration but Honey Irani's presence kept Shraddha away.
FYI, Honey is very fond of Adhuna Bhabani(Farhan's
ex-wife). In fact, she was totally against Farhan's decision of separation. So
much so that Honey was very upset with Farhan for a long time. Eventually,
Honey calmed down and has come to terms with Farhan’s decision. However,
Shraddha is still a no-no for her.
Looks like Farhan and Shraddha wanted Javed saab to have
a peaceful birthday and that’s why Shraddha Kapoor maintained the distance?
