Friends had planned a birthday bash for Gauri Khan on October 8. But with son Aryan still in judicial custody, the party has to wait.

"This is Gauri Khan's saddest birthday ever. Her son is still away, and she cannot think straight. We cannot even wish her a happy birthday. Gauri's birthday can only be happy if Aryan gets interim bail. It's the best gift she can hope for," a close family friend tells Subhash K Jha.

A section of the media reported that Gauri tried to 'sneak' burgers into Aryan's custodial cell.

But the family friend takes strong exception to it, and asks, "How much more will they stoop to make headlines? Is Gauri stupid to feed her son burgers in custody? They just want him out. Do you think they'd risk his bail possibilities by acting rashly?"
