Jab Bebo met Shahid-Mira

Moments from Shilpa and Raj's Diwali dhamaka.

Shilpa Shetty and Raj Kundra ushered in Diwali early at their Juhu Bungalow on Monday with a Casino Night for their Bollywood buddies.

Sridevi was the first to arrive at 10 pm, with younger daughter Khushi towering over her mum in sky- high Louboutins. Close on their heels, her Mr India, Anil Kapoor arrived with biwi Sunita and daughters, Sonam and Rhea. And the early-to-be Kapoors stayed up all night playing cards.

Sonam caught the eye in her chic-nude Tarun Tahiliani sari-gown. Hmmm, wonder what her Prem's reaction would have been to the daring neckline. We'll never know because Salman Khan wasn't at this party.

"The minute Anil spotted Rishi Kapoor in a circle of friends, happily munching on starters while he played cards, he joined the game. Madhavan and Jacky Bhagnani were also at the casino table all night long," a guest told Mirror.

By midnight, 200 guests, including businessmen, builders and socialites were making merry. Amongst them were Big B and Mrs B, along with Abhishek and Aishwarya. "Aishwarya came bearing a huge gift hamper.

There was wine and a large bouquet of roses and orchids. Shilpa, who looked stunning in a Manish Malhotra, was delighted because this was the first time Amitabh Bachchan was visiting her home in seven years. She hugged him, Raj touched his feet and asked for his blessings," the guest added.

Seven chefs had been flown in from Hyderabad for the bash and the buffet was loaded with kebabs, haleem, biryani and a live fish and grill counter, including fire play by the cook.

There were 10 kinds of desserts, including a special pan counter, which excited nawab Saif Ali Khan and his begum Kareena, who walked in hand-in-hand with Karisma around 1 am.

Bebo dazzled in a Sabyasachi anarkali, chatting up newly-weds Shahid and Mira. They went on to mingle, while Madhu Mantena and wife Masaba Gupta, who are planning a grand wedding reception on November 22, stayed close to Shahid and Mira. Masaba bagged the title of 'Selfie Queen of the night'.

Mika Singh dragged everyone to the dance floor as "Jumme ki raat", "Pyaar Do Pyaar Lo" and "Mast Kalandar" played on.

Kareena danced with Shilpa to the tunes of "Mera Naam Mary Hai" followed by "Fevicol Se". Saif and Bebo were among the last to leave. The bash continued till sunrise with breakfast being served at 7:30 am.
