Anushka Sharma, Kajol, Ayushmann Khurrana, Mohanlal among others took to their respective social media handles to wish fans and friends on Friendship Day.
Sharing an adorable photo on Instagram, Anushka Sharma wrote, “You make a lot of friends in your life and each one of them have an important part to play in it. Knowingly or unknowingly, they all leave an impression on us. Some of them continue to be in touch and some you think of very fondly and their memories inevitably land up bringing a smile to your face.”
“Being from an army background, a lot of the friends we made we also lost touch with as and when their families got posted to different places. This one’s for all our friends. To the ones we’ve grown up with and the ones who are with us today…Wishing everyone a very happy friendship day!” the actor added.
Kajol said she feels “blessed” to have so many friends in life. Sharing a collage on Instagram that featured Shah Rukh Khan, Karan Johar and others, the actor wrote, “Couldn’t fit all my friends in one frame. So loved am I. I am truly blessed. To all my friends who can be seen and can’t. Of my blood and not…”

Khurrana shared a throwback photo with composer Rochak Kohli. The actor said in a statement, “I have known Rochak since my 8th grade. We went to the same school, St. John’s high school in Chandigarh. We became friends in school when we discovered that both of us are crazily passionate about music. There were other students also but we shared the common talent of composing and writing songs which was rare for students in the 8th grade.”
He also recalled how staying in touch with his friends has helped him through the lockdown. “Human connections are very important. But we’ve been in touch virtually during this period. Rochak and I have been in touch with our school and college friends too. The best part is that we are from the same school and we are in touch with 40 other boys who were part of our section in St. John’s school. I think that’s what makes it easy for you to deal with the adversities. When there is nobody around you physically but, at least, you’re connected via technology which also keeps you going,” the actor said.
Bigg Boss 13’s Mahira Sharma called Paras Chhabra her “friend like family.”
Sargun Mehta wished her “buddy” Ravi Dubey on Friendship Day.
