The star wife’s caption called it a ‘full house’, but she missed someone very important, 'Sri’, Anil’s sister-in-law and co-star of many hits together, legendary actor Sridevi. Pictures of the Karwa Chauth celebrations from last year also started going viral where the ‘Sadma’ star looked beautiful as ever.   

Apart from the Karwa Chauth at Anil Kapoor’s place, there were many others stars who enjoyed the spirit of love for their spouses. Ayushmann had earlier shared a picture of Mehendi on his palm written as 'T' while revealing he was fasting for his wife and not vice versa as the filmmaker recovers from illness. Later, they posted another lovely photograph of them waiting for the moon together to break their fast.
