Annirudh Dave currently seen in 'Yaaron'

I feel one should have 2 am friends and I am lucky to have them in my life. They have helped me at every point in my life. I have a good bunch of friends. A friend in need is a friend indeed, have grown up reading this quote. Yes, they are important but circumstances make them stay away. That really pinches. 'Friend wohi jo har haal me saath de'. Everyone does that mistake. One should believe, forget and forgive. This is the only thing that makes relations better. I am so lucky to have my friends, Few are annoyed, I am so sorry to them, please understand and yes I love you. Can not count the names of my friends, we are so possessive. Happy friendship day to all.

Friendship is the base of any relationship. It is the purest form of emotions. I have a very few close friends. Two are from my school, two are college friends and to one I met in Mumbai. They are important because they keep me grounded, they guide, they scold and praise me as well. I can't imagine my life without them. In this competition era, people pretend to be your friends but these people are always there for me and actually feel happy for me. No matter how busy my schedule be, I am always available for them. All my five friends are equally important to me. I remember the time when we used to participate in drama, dance, sports and copied in exams. We always stay in touch via phone and WhatsApp. We talk random things and it still makes my day.

Arjun Bijlani, currently seen on 'Jhalak Dikhlaa Jaa 9'

Friendship is one relationship which doesn't come by birth. We choose our friends so it means a lot to me. Friends should add value to your life. The rest are just acquaintances. I don't believe in the concept of best friends. I have a few friends who are close and I know they will stand by me always. 

Mohammad Nazim, currently seen in 'Saath Nibhana Saathiya'

Friends are very important in my life and have few best friends who are my life but we celebrate and enjoy the whenever we meet so there are no special friendships day and plans for the day. I have very few best friends from the industry. But the best friends I have all are special for me as they care, love and support me every time and we all have known each other for a very long time, that's what makes our bond more rigid.

Aishwarya Sakhuja, last seen in 'Khidki'

Friendship day for me is another commercial day for these card galleries to have a booming business because in Bombay, my family apart from my in-laws are my friends for me and I really do not need to make plans to meet them. It is as natural as going home to meet my family as it is to meet them every day. My day is incomplete without meeting my friends so I think over the years it has become friendship days' for me instead of friendship day.

Friendship is important in life. With friends, we can be ourselves without batting an eyelid. One needs good conversations and motivation, the source of which is friends. Friends are like an extended family. We are busy building our career and we need friends to keep us grounded and happy. 

Saba Qamar, currently seen in 'Kaash Aisa Ho' 

Friendship is doing crazy things together. Friends are family, you choose for yourself and I'm glad I got to choose a crazy bunch. Life would've been really dull and boring without these mad people, I call friends. Like every year, I'm going to spend this Friendship's Day with my dear friends because they make it meaningful.

Sami Khan, currently seen in 'Maaye Ni'

Friendship is the only relationship that doesn't age with time. No matter how old you get, your equation with your friends will always remain the same and the bond only gets stronger. Friends are like your second family with whom you can share anything and everything. I am truly blessed to have friends who have been an integral part of my life. Friends and family are the ones who help me remain grounded. I also like to wish all my fans in India a very Happy Friendship's Day.

Mawra Hocane, last seen in Main Bushar 

When I think of India, the one friend that I've made is my co-actor Harsh. The rest of them were merely doing their jobs. Harsh (Harshvardhan Rane) looked after me like a friend from childhood & now he is somebody I'll know till I turn 70 or more. He's more actions than words, extremely affectionate & sensitive. For me, friends who grow together stay together & that's the key!

Laksh Lalwani last seen in 'Adhuri Kahani Humari'

Life without friends is not complete. At every stage of life, friends are needed and wanted. We share our life with friends and we grow together. Friends make life full of life.

Here's wishing a happy friendship day to all!
