Gauahar Khan and Zaid Darbar
Gauahar Khan and Zaid Darbar's son Zehaan turned one recently. The couple threw a grand birthday bash in Mumbai for their son. However, the couple faced an unpleasant visit by the BMC (Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation) who tore down parts of the birthday decor.
Gauahar and Zaid organised a jungle-themed birthday party for their son at a posh hotel in Mumbai on Thursday. At the entrance of the hotel, a giant jungle themed gate was installed to welcome the guests. However, the BMC took objection to the erection of the gate outside the party venue. They demanded that the gate needs to be removed.
In a video doing the rounds on social media, officials of BMC can be seen asking the people involved with the party to take down the gate. They were later seen dismantling the party gate. Reportedly, the makeshift gate installed on the footpath outside the entrance of the hotel was found objectionable by the city authorities. They initially asked the hotel staff and event organisers to get rid of it. But when their demand fell on deaf ears, the officials took matter on their own hands and took down the structure. They dumped it in a truck that belonged to them and took it away.
In the video, the officials and organisers could be seen getting into a heated argument before the structure was taken down. Zaid Darbar stepped out of the venue and let the officials take down the structure to avoid any further drama.
Gauahar and Zaid tied the knot on December 25, 2020. Reportedly, the two met while grocery shopping during the lockdown, and their friendship blossomed into love. In December of last year, the couple announced the pregnancy news with an adorable animated video. In May 2023, the couple welcomed a baby boy.
Gauahar shared the news of her baby's arrival via an Instagram post, announcing, "It's a Boy! As salaam u alaikum beautiful world," said our bundle of joy. He arrived on the 10th of May 2023, bringing us true happiness. Our blessed boy thanks everyone for their love and prayers. Grateful and giggling, new parents Zaid and Gauahar.
