What made this get-together even more memorable was a surprise visit by actor Farhan Akhtar, who dropped in unannounced and added an extra spark to the evening. The unexpected moment was captured in a cheerful picture, giving a peek into the warmth and fun of the lively bash. Taking to Instagram, Shabana Azmi posted a picture of herself posing with her girl gang, which included Divya Dutta, Shahana Goswami, and Sandhya Mridul.
