Alia Bhatt turned 24 yesterday and she rung it in with a few chosen friends Ayan Mukherjee and rumoured-beau Sidharth Malhotra. Throughout the day she cut several cakes but she also had an intimate party inthe evening with some friends. Here she is in this photo withher sister Shaheen who posted on Instagram with this quote: "Of two sisters one is always the watcher, one the dancer." - Louise Glück There are no prizes for guessing who is who in the above equation. Alia, watching you dance (ugh, this is what happens when you write yourself into corners with quotes) your way through life has been one of my greatest joys. You surprise me everyday and I'm so proud of the kind, loving and generous person you have grown into. You are my best friend and I love you more than you will ever know. Happy Birthday, Bob.
