Arjun Rampal’s back from a round of heavy duty partying in Dubai at the launch of the Atlantis in the Palm. Among invitees of good friend Shah Rukh Khan’s party were Robert De Niro, Mischa Barton, Mary Kate Oslen, Kylie Minogue, Charlize Theron and Lindsay Lohan. ‘It was great fun, it always is and the music was great,’ says Arjun. And its time to put on the party hatsonce again as the actor blows out 36 candles. ‘ Are you rubbing it in?’ he asks, adding ,’ I don’t feel it, I should be turning 26.’ Since he’ll be shooting the whole day for Fox, he’ll take it easy this time.
‘It won’t be anything grand, a quite dinner with family and friends. In fact, I always end up shooting on my B’day, and by the time II finish ‘I’ll be too exhausted to party,’ says Arjun.The partying will be reserved for wife Mehr’s b’day. Hers is just 4 days after mine, so we’ll party then,’ he says. As for the guest list, he says he has no idea as his wife will take care of it. Is he thinking of strumming the guitar for his guests? ‘Actually it is not a bad idea, Farhan will be there, he can sing and I can play the guitar,’ he laughs.
Speaking abou b’day wishes, Arjun says this yearhas been great for him and he shouldn’t be greedy, butjust the duas of his fans and his well wishers should do. Recently he has been called the coolest dad in India, and he says he is proud of it as it invovles being a dad. Things look professionally well after ROck On!!!
