Birthday time: Send in your good wishes to Vrinda Dawda and Malini Kapoor

Today (31 March) is a very auspicious day. Today the world is celebrating Gudi Padwa, Ugadi, Navratri and Cheti Chand. And there are more reasons to make merry as two lovely ladies from the world of television, namely Vrinda Dawda aka Taani of Dil Dostii Dance (D3) and Malini Kapoor (known for her stint in Rab Se Sohna Ishq) are celebrating their birthdays on this very day. Shared Vrinda, “On Saturday (29 March) I celebrated my birthday with my D3 friends as it was weekend. Last night members of my family and a few close friends brought in my birthday with cakes and flowers. They also showered me with lots of gifts like soft toys, chocolates, cosmetics, clothes; some gifts are yet to be opened. Talking about my plans for the evening let me say that I will go to a particular orphanage to meet little children and spend some time with them. Later, I have planned for a family dinner.” “I have been blessed with lovely people around me; maybe that is the reason why I don’t want anything in life now. I would also thank my fans for showering me with love and support,” she added. How do you feel on getting a year older? “Since I am too young, I haven’t thought about it. I am just enjoying this phase,” the actress quipped. Averred Malini, “Last night my sister Shalini (Kapoor) and other family members surprised me with cakes. We partied till 4 am this morning and played games. Till now I have cut around four cakes. I started my day today by visiting a temple. My plans for the evening are yet to be chalked out. Maybe I will go out shopping.” How about gifts? “Since I have got many bags, I am seeking the help of God to see that those bags get full with money soon (laughs).” Any wish that you want to get fulfilled? “I wish to have a successful life and get better projects.” Wishing you both a very happy birthday!!
