Aishwarya revived lost friendships

Karan Johar’s birthday bash turned out to be an occasion for Bollywood’s many warring factions to congregate and iron out their differences. It’s not everyday one sees the likes of Ash, Abhishek Bachchan , Shahrukh Khan , Vivek Oberoi , Kareena Kapoor , Karisma Kapoor and Sonam Kapoor under the same roof.

Aishwarya and Shahrukh Khan’s cold war is legendary. It began in those days when she was dropped from Chalte Chalte after her feud with Salman spilled over on the film’s sets. Since then, Ash and SRK hadn’t been on talking terms. But K-Jo’s birthday was an occasion to make peace. Not only did Ash and SRK bond once again, reports say SRK apologized to Ash for having wronged her.

However, one of the most surprising patch-up at the bash was between the Bachchans and the Kapoors. We all know how cold the Bachchans have been towards the Kapoors ever since Abhishek’s broken engagement with Karishma. And on Karan Johar’s birthday party, Aishwarya and Kareena Kapoor bonded like pakki sahelis. They chatted, laughed, and even danced together. Abhishek Bachchan, too, rekindled his lost friendship with Kareena Kapoor.

At the party, Aishwarya also met Sonam Kapoor and reportedly chatted with her about the recent Cannes controversy. Vivek Oberoi also came to the party, but kept at a distance from Ash. Salman Khan was invited but did not turn up. Many hatchets were buried deep at Karan Johar’s birthday earlier this week.
