Prachi Desai, who turns 24 today, is looking forward to making merry. Though she has not made any plans for her big day, her close pals have lined up a small bash for her

Says a source, `For the last few days she has been busy preparing for the shoot of the Hindi version of the Telugu film Saamy in which she stars with Sanjay Dutt.

She is slated to join the unit soon due to which she has had no time to make any elaborate plans. She was also in hometown Pune for the weekend. So it has been left to her buddies to surprise her.`

The actress also recently returned from the US after a vacation. After taking part as the grand marshal at the Indian Independence Day celebrations in Chicago and New Jersey, she decided to stay on and also visit Atlanta.


Adds the source, `She was planning a vacation after the release of Bol Bachchan so she followed her commitments by a holiday. She got back in time for her birthday, as she wanted to spend the day with her family and close friends.

The past year has been good to her especially Bol Bachchan so there is lots of reason to celebrate before she leaves for Hyderabad for the shoot of the Sanjay Dutt starrer.`
