A day to rejoice, party and a day not to be understated is what we call – birthday! Remember how we used to invite our friends from school and neighbourhood to party at our house when we were kids? Those musical chair games, cake cutting moments with parents wearing birthday caps, clicking pictures with friends, and what not; birthdays in the 90s used to be this old school fun. Nowadays, celebrations have a little modern touch as we prefer to wish our near and dear ones on social media. Sanjivani and Sinndoor Tere Naam Ka fame, Gurdip Punjj (who is famous as Gurdip Kohli) and her hubby, Arjun J Punjj too wished their prince, Mahir Punjj on their Instagram handles.
But before that, let us tell you, Gurdip Punjj married Arjun J Punjj in a typical Punjabi wedding on December 10, 2006. The two started having hots for each other whilst working together on the show, Sanjivani. In an interview, Gurdip herself had shared that she and Arjun wanted their love marriage to be an arranged one, only after their families' consent. Together they are proud parents to Meher Punjj (born on March 24, 2010) and Mahir Punjj (born on August 21, 2015).

For me, it is like life taking a full circle and me restarting a new journey. I am of course very very excited.

But now when we are heading towards shoot it is unbelievable for me.”
