Prateik gives SLB’s party a miss
Sanjay Leela Bhansali celebrated his birthday over this weekend and all his protégés came together to ring in their mentor’s special day in the sun. One notable exception who missed out on the festivities was Prateik though. Prateik, whom Bhansali nurtured through his initial years in Bollywood, had a major fall out with the director and refused to be present for his birthday celebrations.
“All the stars who have worked with Bhansali down the years had sent their best wishes to the filmmaker. The only one who conveniently forgot to send his wishes to his mentor (of sorts) was Prateik,” says our source.
Bhansali, too, let his hair down at the party. The reticent director, who otherwise doesn’t like to celebrate too much, partied till the wee hours of the morning with all his protégés, including technicians and writers.
While the other big stars — including Kareena Kapoor, who was busy shooting for Heroine — sent in their best wishes, they couldn’t unfortunately make it there. “As the party was planned at the very last minute, the bigger stars found it difficult to make it there. However, they did plan a bigger party at a much later date,” the source added.
