Nakuul Mehta and Drashti Dhami, who have been friends for the longest time, reunited last night (January 5) and their reunion has definitely brought a smile on the faces of their fans.
Nakuul and Jankee Parekh will soon be embracing parenthood and the duo spent a fun evening with Drashti and husband Neeraj Khemka. The soon-to-be parents decided to ring in Drashti’s birthday in advance. The actress celebrates her birthday on January 10 and she looked elated while cutting the early birthday cake.
Incidentally, Nakuul too celebrates his birthday on January 17 and the friends decided to ring it in well in advance. Nakuul wrote, “When you meet her after a year, you celebrate birthdays in advance.”
“I want Covid-19 to be over,” wishes Drashti Dhami, who turns a year older tomorrow. After celebrating the New Year’s eve with friends at home, she admits there are no plans for her birthday. “I am not having a ‘party’ or going out to any restaurant with friends and family. But, if I had a party, I would ensure that friends who come to my birthday get a Covid test (laughs),” she says.
Usually Dhami spends New Year’s out of the city and extends the vacation till her birthday but she was concerned about the crowds in other cities.
“I was scared to go out of town as people were travelling to all the usual haunts and also everything was booked. Moreover, with the restaurants shutting early in the city, what’s the point of going out for birthdays? I feel bad for the hospitality industry as they haven’t had good business since last year and everyone is suffering across industries. If we go to a restaurant the fear that we might Covid is real, so it’s a vicious circle,” she shares.
After the lockdown and restricted movement in the last year, the actor feels everyone’s patience has been tested a lot.
