Manish Malhotra's bash will be followed by Amitabh Bachchan's annual Diwali party on Sunday, October 27. The Bachchans are gearing up to host the night after a gap of two years and it's expected to be a rather starry affair. Meanwhile, Ekta Kapoor won't be having her annual Diwali party at her residence since the renovation work in her Juhu residence is still underway.
