Medha Shankr, Arbaaz Khan and Arpita Khan were among a string of Bollywood celebrities who recently shared pictures of celebrating their August birthdays with friends and family.
Known for her role in Vidhu Vinod Chopra’s 12th Fail, Medha celebrated her birthday on August 1 in the midst of nature. The actress, who turned 27 this year, thanked her fans for their love and support.
“Thank You so much for the birthday wishes. Had the most rejuvenating stay in the midst of nature, surrounded by the love of my closest people. Funny thing- there was almost no network in the area (no, that wasn’t planned), and I think that’s one of the primary reasons why this trip felt so wholesome,” she wrote on Instagram.
Medha also said the guests at her birthday bash were engaged in conversations with each other the entire time since there was no network in the area. “Nobody could take work calls or mindlessly scroll through social media too much which led to everyone being more present and engaged. And none of us has had a better time in years! New goal- Live. Love. Laugh. Pause. Repeat,” she added.
Newlyweds Zaheer Iqbal and Sonakshi Sinha attended the birthday party of Salman Khan’s sister Arpita Khan on Sunday. Sharing a set of pictures from the party, Zaheer wrote, “Happy Birthday Arpita. Mazaa aa gaya.”
