Anupam Kher, who is currently living in New York, had fabulous birthday celebrations in the Big Apple, courtesy a lunch with Robert De Niro. The veteran actor, who turned 65 on March 7, had sent an invitation to Hollywood legend and his co-star Robert De Niro, asking him to join him on his birthday. And Robert De Niro was happy to accept the invitation. Anupam Kher, who had a cake-cutting session with The Godfather star singing "Happy Birthday" to him, shared a video of the celebrations on Twitter. "Nothing can be more magical for an actor than to be able to spend quality time on your birthday with the 'God of acting Robert De Niro' third year in a row. I am humbled that Mr De Niro accepted my lunch invitation. It was magnificent."
"Isko kehte hain 'Kuchh bhi ho sakta hai' ka baap (This is the daddy of 'Anything can happen')," Mr Kher added in his birthday-special video. Take a look at it here:
