Gauri snubs Farah?

Once a best friend of Shah Rukh, Farah Khan was conspicuous in her absence from his recent party.

Hosted at JW Marriot to welcome rapper - Akon to Mumbai (rumoured to be in town to record a song for Anubhav Sinha's Ra.1.), the party was thrown by Shah Rukh and organised by the Morani brothers, who were apparently told to keep Farah, and husband Shirish Kunder's names off the list.

Whilst guests were informed of the event a week before it took place, Farah was unaware, until probed about her absence.

However, the twist in the tale is that it was wife Gauri Khan who approved the guest list. When SRK learned that Farah's name was not included, he did his best to have her at the event but she was unfortunately busy with shoots for her upcoming movie.

The friends have been under the limelight for an alleged row ever since Farah opted to take on Akshay Kumar for her third venture, Tees Maar Khan. However, both have vehemently denied any strains on their friendship.
