Ankita Lokhande turned a year older on December 19 and celebrated her special day in style. She hosted a star-studded gala attended by several television celebrities and close friends. Now, as she dropped some stunning captures from the birthday bash, she also talked at length about what real friendships mean to her.
On Instagram, Ankita Lokhande posted lovely snaps from her 41st birthday party filled with her loved ones. The star-studded guest list included Arti Singh, Samarth Jurel, Zaid Darbar, Aparna Dixit, Elvish Yadav, Firoza Khan aka Khanzaadi, Mannara Chopra, Srishty Rode, Chetna Pande, Manshaa Bahl, Mishthi Tyagi, Sandeep Singh, and Mohit Kalra, among others.
Alongside the pictures, she wrote a long note that can be read as “Friendships
and bonds are two very different blessings in life. Friendship is something God gifts us, something pure and effortless. Bonds, on the other hand, are created by us—built with time, love, effort, and intention.”
