Sunita Kapoor's Karwa Chauth celebrations are a hit among the Tinseltown ladies and every year the women gang up at her house and celebrate the festival. However, last year's Karwa Chauth was an emotional moment for the Kapoors as they had lost the most important lady of the house - Sridevi Kapoor. We got hold of an old video from Sridevi's Instagram, wherein, she was dancing with Shilpa Shetty on Prem Ratan Dhan Payo.
Last year, on Karwa Chauth, Shilpa Shetty was in Sri Lanka and had shared an adorable Karwa Chauth post for her husband, Raj Kundra. She had written, "Had to put this picture out... Just notice the light in the shadow of the sieve looking like the moon. Considering we couldn't see the moon in Sri Lanka till 9.30 pm." In her post, she had also revealed how her husband, Raj also fasts with her, "WE broke our fast (yes, he fasts too) with a pic of the moon seen in Mumbai sent by a friend. You are my sun, my moon and my universe... Thank you for travelling with me. Tum aaye toh aaya mujhe yaad, gali mein aaj Chaand nikla."
