Some of the Bigg Boss contestants, including Armaan Kohli and Salman's favourite contestant Elli Avram, also feature on his guest list.`

Armaan and Amal Malik, the new singer-composer duo that Salman has introduced in his next were present at the do. Amal, who is all excited to get feedback for his composition says, `We met him with our new songs and a cake. He loves holding music sessions, so we played live for him.`


Another actor, who is a close friend of the actor, reveals a bit about the cuisines available at the event. `There is always a lavish spread when it comes to food at Khan household even if it is at his house or shooting. And his mother takes personal interest when the menu is drawn up.`
