Ayan Mukerji, Katrina Kaif

Seems like Katrina Kaif’s life is not going too great on the personal front. Just this year, she had her breakup from the long time boyfriend Ranbir Kapoor, and seems like she has lost a dear friend too. The absence of Ayan Mukerji, Ranbir’s BFF and a very close friend of Katrina, certainly suggested so. Ever since the breakup, Ayan has been distancing himself from the actress, and our suspicions were more or less confirmed when the director did not attend the ‘Bang Bang’ beauty’s birthday bash.

A source said, “There was never any question of divided loyalties. Ayan is first and foremost Ranbir’s best friend and confidante. He met Katrina through Ranbir and became close to her. In fact, Ayan wrote ‘Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani’ for Ranbir and Katrina. She refused because at that point of time she did not want her personal equation with Ranbir to spill into the professional space. All through their relationship, Ayan was a mediator and a confidante. When the relationship ended he had no choice, but to pitch his tent in Ranbir’s backyard. Not only are they best friends, Ranbir is also the leading man in Ayan’s next.What choice does he have?”

On Katrina’s part, it seems like the actress has decided to let go of the past and move forward in life. Katrina, who had never celebrated her birthday since 2008, where the infamous spat had taken place between Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan, decided to have a bash this year. The pretty actress made her debut on Facebook, and hosted a big party for her Bollywood friends. The party was attended by biggies like Alia Bhatt, Sidharth Malhotra, Karan Johar and many others.

What is your take on Ayan Mukerji giving a miss to Katrina Kaif’s birthday bash? Do you think he should have remained friends with her after her breakup with Ranbir Kapoor?
