Alia Bhatt's best-friend, Akanksha Ranjan Kapoor celebrates her birthday today and there's no way the actress was going to miss the big celebration. The Raazi star who was in Bulgaria these days shooting for Brahmastra with beau Ranbir Kapoor, flew back to her home city just in time to celebrate her bestie's birthday. Now for the ones who know Alia, will know the special bond she shares with Akanksha. Her Instagram account is filled with numerous posts dedicated to her bestie and the saying 'sister from another mother' holds true for them. Dressed in a white tank top with grey jeans and classic white shrug, Ms. Bhatt kept her airport look strictly basic. She paired it with a chic black fanny pack, pink sneakers, loose hair, and round over-sized sunglasses. Alia Bhatt Gets her Mom Soni Razdan's Approval for Boyfriend Ranbir Kapoor!

While we believe the actress must have planned an intimate bash of some sorts for her darling friend, we wonder if she'll return to Bulgaria and join RK Jr again. Since the actor will ring in his 36th birthday in the next ten days, chances are high that his ladylove will be present by his side to ring in his special occasion. Ranbir celebrates his birthday on September 28th and that gives Alia a good ten-day break to enjoy a short break with her gal pal. Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor Put On Their Party Shoes As They Shoot for Brahmastra – View Pic.
