/> L K Advani and his wife's joint birthday party on 21 November at their Delhi residence hosted by their efficient daughter Pratibha, turned out to be one of the biggest and most well-attended parties.

While all the senior BJP members showed up to wish the couple, Hema Malini who is very close to Advaniji did a no-show. However Shatrughan Sinha amply represented the film industry. Shotgun breezed in and breezed out, as post-surgery he is not allowed to be in public places for too long.

Also present from the film industry were Raj Kumar Hirani and Madhur Bhandarkar. Hirani, we hear, is going to be spending a lot of time in the Capital's political corridors to research for his next film, P. K.


While other details of the very well-organized and attended bash for the Advanis is being kept a secret we can tell you there was a tree on display on which all the guests were requested to write and hang their thoughts on Advaniji.

We can also tell you that some notable politicians shied away from doing so, their writing skills being far from satisfactory.
