Bring in the Gandasa: Fawad Khan turns 41 in true ‘Maula Jatt’ fashion

Amongst many, Gohar Rasheed, Sanam Saeed and HSY were spotted at the actor's star-studded birthday bash

Celebrating his 41^st birthday a bit early, Pakistan's heartthrob Fawad Khan co-hosted a small birthday party with his beloved wife, Sadaf Fawad, at their Lahore home.

The Humsafar actor, who was born on November 29, invited his close friends to commemorate his big day over the weekend in a rather intimate affair, compared to his 40^th star-studded birthday bash which took place on a yacht voyage in Dubai and lasted for two whole days.

Numerous famous faces were spotted at the fete, such as Asad Khan, HSY, Soha Sheikh, Amna Baber, Khoji, and Sanam Saeed.

Khan, who starred in The Legend of Maula Jatt which bagged over Rs 200 crores at the worldwide box office, celebrated the triumph at the event. The actor cut a cake with a gandasa – a long-handled wooden axe, used by his character Maula Jatt – propped onto it.

In a viral video on Instagram, Khan is seen cutting the 'Gandasa cake' with his ladylove, Sadaf beside him. The two are embraced in each other's arms while Khan gives his wife a heartfelt forehead kiss. His co-star Gohar Rasheed, and the film's producer Ammara Hikmat were also present at the cake-cutting ceremony.
