Ayushmann, Tahira host Diwali bash on Udta Teer release day
Ayushmann Khurrana and Tahira Kashyap opened Diwali with a starry bash at home on October 23, as Udta Teer hit cinemas the same day.
Ayushmann Khurrana and Tahira Kashyap chose Friday, October 23, to begin their Diwali at home—and the film industry showed up. Their annual Diwali party at their Mumbai residence came with a packed guest list and an extra reason to raise a glass.
A guest list that doubled as a Bollywood roll call
The couple have made the celebration a yearly ritual, and this edition pulled together a wide cross-section of the industry. Among the names seen at the do were filmmakers, actors and designers.
- Karan Johar
- Bhushan Kumar
- Guneet Monga
- Sara Ali Khan
- Arjun Kapoor
- Bhumi Pednekar
- Rajkummar Rao
- Rakul Preet Singh and Jackky Bhagnani
- Manish Malhotra
- Sanya Malhotra
- Shilpa Shetty and Raj Kundra
The full list also included Apoorva Mehta, Amar Kaushik, Aparshakti Khurana and Aakriti, Twinkle Khanna, Shreya Chaudhry and more, making the night one of the early industry get-togethers of the Diwali calendar.
Two celebrations in one evening
The timing carried a professional milestone. Ayushmann’s latest film, Udta Teer, arrived in theatres the same day, so the gathering became both a festive ritual and an informal release-night celebration.
For the actor, the home party offered a rare moment to mark a film’s arrival away from promotions and press lines, surrounded by colleagues and friends.
Why this early Diwali moment matters
Release-day parties are familiar in the industry, but a private Diwali dinner puts the film inside a different frame. There are no stage lights or interviewers; the news travels through guest lists, photographs and quieter conversations. For a star, that can feel more personal than a premiere.
That matters because early festive gatherings often set the tone for the weeks ahead. People reconnect, new collaborations get discussed informally, and a film gets an extra layer of social visibility without a formal campaign.
With Diwali still to come, more starry gatherings are likely to follow. But the Khurranas’ annual do has become a reliable starting point—and this time, it carried the added energy of a film hitting cinemas.
