Mumbai, March 7: Two prominent figures in the entertainment industry, Anil Kapoor and Anupam Kher, are extremely close friends. Not only that, they are also neighbors.
On Saturday, as Anupam turned a year older, Anil wished him on his special day by singing the popular old song "Tere ghar ke samne ek ghar banaunga," originally sung by Lata Mangeshkar and Mohammed Rafi.
In a clip posted by Anil on the Stories section of his Instagram, he was seen trying to communicate with Anupam, who is standing on his balcony.
Since Anil and Anupam cannot hear each other clearly due to the distance, the "Animal" actor sweetly ends the conversation by singing "Tere ghar ke samne" for his friend.
He further added a text overlay in the video, pointing out all the downsides of having a neighbor.
"Tere ghar ke samne ek ghar banaunga..." I sometimes feel that this line is a bit too long...because the neighbor can come anytime...without informing...constantly coming and going!," Anil shared.
However, later, Anil sweetly admitted that he wouldn't have it any other way.
The "Mr India" actor went on to add, "But honestly, I wouldn't have it any other way. Happy Birthday my dear friend @anupamKher Love you! (red heart emoji)".
In December last year, Anupam admitted that he had become more dependent on Anil after the passing of their close friend and actor Satish Kaushik.
Dropping a special birthday message for the "Nayak" actor, Anupam said, "After Satish passed away, I realized that I became more dependent on you. And you understand that silently, and you have been very kind to me, very silently kind to me. I know that."
"You are a fabulous actor. I always tell you that you have a modern vision and native wisdom as a person. And I am sometimes overwhelmed thinking about the contribution you make in my life, especially at this stage of my life. I love you. You are the bestest," he added.
