Manish Malhotra's Diwali bash: Shilpa Shetty, Sophie Choudry play cards

Manish Malhotra's Diwali party was more like a girls' night out with Nushrat Bharucha, Sophie Choudry, Pooja Hegde and Vaani Kapoor making merry at the bash.

The festive season has begun and Bollywood is always ahead when it comes to celebrations. With so many celebrities hosting Diwali parties, the festive affair begins a week prior to the actual Diwali festival. On Monday, Bollywood's well-known fashion designer Manish Malhotra, who is friends with many within the fraternity organised a Diwali card party for his industry friends.

On Manish Malhotra's guest list were Shilpa Shetty with husband Raj Kundra, Sophie Choudry, Tahira Kashyap, Karan Johar, Ekta Kapoor, Nushrat Bharucha, Arpita Khan Sharma, Aparshakti Khurana, Pooja Hegde, Vaani Kapoor.

In the past, there were rumours of a conflict between Karan Johar and Ekta Kapoor. However, these are things of the past now, as the two, dressed in traditional outfits, entered hand-in-hand at Manish's Diwali party. Tahira and Nushrat kept it simple with their green and pink plain dresses. Shilpa looked festive in her kurti and skirt while Sophie kept it minimal.

Sophie Choudry also shared a lot of inside pictures on her social media handle and it sure looked more like a girls' night out. In one of the pictures, Sophie called Nushrat a Kulcha (a North-Indian bread) chor while the latter was busy eating.
