Apart from Farhan, Anusha also took to her Instagram account and posted a picture with her "chicken". She wrote, "Happy Birthday chicken, I don’t think I could love a person more than I love Apeksha and You. There is no bigger protector and anyone braver than you. I love you with all of me... Can’t wait to celebrate soon, miss you so so much."
For the uninformed, Farhan and Shibani have been dating since early 2018. The two have made no effort to hide their relationship and have been sharing romantic social media posts for each other along with spending quality time amid the coronavirus lockdown.
In an older interview, Farhan had also spoken about his relationship and how it felt "natural" to him. He had said, "I have never felt comfortable to share personal stuff... But I don’t know why, I just feel that somehow, with the celebrating of this, it seems very natural to me. Obviously, you don’t want to go crazy and people are like, 'Please, bas karo!'"
"But yeah, it feels kind of nice to be able to share that with people. Because we are always living so sheltered and protected and our guards are constantly up, especially when it comes to people like our partners. It felt nicer to just share and include them in the joy and let them hopefully feel happy," he had added.
On the work front, Farhan was last seen in The Sky is Pink opposite Priyanka Chopra Jonas. He will next be seen in Toofan, an upcoming Indian 2020 Hindi sports film directed by Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra. Farhan will be seen playing the role of a national-level boxer, along with Paresh Rawal, Mrunal Thakur, and Isha Talwar essaying pivotal roles.
