Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], May 27 (ANI): Ace fashion designer Manish Malhotra played the perfect host as he threw an intimate yet glittering birthday bash for his longtime friend and filmmaker Karan Johar.

The newest parents in the town, Sidharth Malhotra and Kiara Advani also joined Manish Malhotra for the party.
Among others were Janhvi Kapoor, Shanaya Kapoor, Sara Ali Khan, Vicky Kaushal, and Zoya Akhtar.
Earlier on Tuesday, Manish Malhotra has penned a heartfelt note for his longtime friend and collaborator Karan Johar, sharing a never-before-seen glimpse of the entire process that went behind Karan Johar’s debut Met Gala appearance.
Reflecting on working together for 30 years now, Manish wrote, “This video is about the Showstopper Appearance of Karan’s at TheMetGala 2026 but it’s also shows our friendship and also our comfort of working together for 30 years… many super hit films, many meals and travel together and discussions of films and life and all the most important red carpet appearances… candid, honest to each other is what we have been.”
