Mumbai:
It was one of those rare occasions that Ajay Devgn was separated from wife, Kajol on their anniversary (February 24) as the star was busy shooting for Sanjay Dutt's Rascals in Bangkok.
A source close to Ajay says, "Ever since his marriage (1999), he has made it a point to be in Mumbai almost every year to celebrate his wedding anniversary with Kajol and his close friends and family. This year too, the couple had decided to spend their 12th wedding anniversary together but in Bangkok, where Ajay was shooting for Rascals. Kajol was to fly down with their two children Nysa and Yug but a hectic shooting schedule put paid to their plans."
The source adds, "Sanjay Dutt, Arjun Rampal and Ajay have been shooting round the clock in Pattaya to finish shooting. Kangana Ranaut is currently in Mumbai promoting her next film. Sanju has been shooting with a broken foot as he wants to complete the shoot.
"Every day is very expensive - almost R 35 lakh a day and Sanju doesn't want to waste a bit of it. Kangana's flight to Mumbai could have brought the schedule almost to a halt but the guys made sure that the major portions were complete and not a day was wasted."
"Everyone's treating the film as their own home production. In such a situation Ajay couldn't leave Sanju and go off to celebrate his anniversary with Kajol."
Now the plans have been slightly altered. "Instead of Bangkok, Kajol flew in early today morning to Pattaya with the two children. They will be staying there for a week.
The shoot gets over on March 2 but Ajay plans to stay on with his family for a couple of more days after which he joins Rohit Shetty's Singham unit in Goa.
As he couldn't celebrate his anniversary yesterday, Ajay plans to take off for a few hours to be with his family.
He has planned a special lunch for Kajol at their Pattaya hotel and a candlelight dinner on the beach tonight to make it up to his wife. Normally, Ajay doesn't like planning too much. He likes to go impromptu in matters of romance."
