Akshay Kumar was busy with the launch of 2.0 but wife, Twinkle, took their daughter Nitara to the party. Also present were Kunal Kapoor and wife Naina Bachchan.

Three cakes:

There were too many photo shoots on a large white chariot and the buffet was laid outdoors. There were three cakes ­ one with a princess in a silver tiara wearing Aaradhya's face, another pink and blue cake one for the b'day girl and the third a surprise for nana Krishnaraj who had just brought in his own birthday with the words, “Happy Birthday Ajja“ on it.

Return gifts!

“The guest list took a week to be finalised after which invites were sent out and return gifts purchased according to the ages of the kids. Aishwarya personally picked out the bean bags and chocolates as return gifts,“ reveals a source.

Now that's one big hell of a birthday party!
