Lara Dutta

The twitter world is quite a busy one, and Bollywood contributes a great deal to it. Here's looking at the best star tweets of the day.

Whoever said two actresses cannot be friends or cannot appreciate each other in Bollywood just got proven wrong via Twitter.

First Sonam Kapoor tweeted to director Farah Khan, 'Just saw the promo of sheila ki jawani from TMK.. How hot is katrina and good is the song! @TheFarahKhan I'm a fan'.

Director Farah Khan was delighted and responded back saying, 'thank u sonam!how many heroines wld hav the heart 2 praise another heroines work?!good on you!lov.'

Even Mallika Sherawat had good words to say of fellow actor Lara Dutta's Yoga DVD and VCD launch. Earlier, Lara had tweeted: 'Out now at stores nation-wide! Enjoy!! :-)'

And Sherwat promptly replied and re-tweeted her feedback, 'looks gr8!'

Hmm... takes confident women to get the camaraderie going! What say tweeps?

Shilpa Shetty

Looks like all of Bollywood were out celebrating Eid.

Shilpa Shetty tweeted, 'Eid Mubarak to all u lovely people:) friends sent over yummeeeee Biryani,devoured it in a jiffy;).'

Fellow friend Abhishek Bachchan shooting in Goa also broke his diet with a fun excuse. 'Was always taught as a kid that "too much of anything is bad for you".... So OUT with the non-fat, steamed food. BRING ON THE BIRYANI!!!!!'

Dia Mirza, however, stuck to steamed fish and soup and was miffed with her fans, 'God! You GUYS! You just cant stop saying Biryani n Kebabs can you!?! Fine. Be like that. :) ha ha ha ha SADISTS!!! Glad you all satiated your appetite by igniting mine when i'm meant to be on a mean diet! Tch.. tch.. My sadistic angels its time now to say goodnight! Thank you for getting my stomach to growl n always erasing any signs of a scowl! Love.'

Sandhya Mridul had her own twisty take on it. She said, 'EID MUBARAK!!!!!!!! And be kind to the bakra's i know whats its like to be one!'

Thought Priyanka Chopra rounded it off best, when she tweeted a couplet: 'Heard a sher. For you all on this auspicious day." Apna toh kisi taur se kat jayega yeh din..tum jisse bhi milo use ho eid mubarak.."

What can we say but 'wah wah!'
