Meanwhile, Shweta organised a special birthday dinner for her mom last night, inviting her close buddies. The mother-daughter duo was spotted leaving a popular restaurant in Mumbai. The pictures of the two have been going viral on social media since the last night.

On the work front, Jaya Bachchan has been away from the movie business for a long time now. The actor, who’s popular for her performances in films like Guddi (1971), Silsila (1983), Sholay (1975), Abhimaan (1973), Bawarchi (1972), Piya Ka Ghar (1972) and Phagun (1973) among others, has limited herself to make special appearances in movies today. She was seen with husband Amitabh Bachchan in R Balki’s Ki & Ka that featured Kareena Kapoor Khan and Arjun Kapoor in the lead. Jaya, though, is active in her political career. She is a Member of Parliament from Samajwadi Party since the year 2004.
