Hrithik and Sussanne Roshan held a Halloween costume party at their Juhu home last night. This is the first time any B-Town star has held such a bash.
The bash was held so as to celebrate Sussanne's birthday a day earlier as tomorrow is karva chauth (a festival observed by married women where they fast all day as they believe it will ensure their husband prosperity and a long life).
Revealed a source, "The guests were asked to come in standard horror outfits such as ghosts, ghouls or witches or in any other costume they fancy."
Said Hrithik on Sunday night, "All I can say is that she's the only one who could have pulled this off! Because you just don't wanna say 'no' to Sussanne! Everyone's dressing up, it's going to be fun! I feel like I'm in school again!"
