Maanayata and Sanjay Dutt's first wedding anniversary party send out a clear signal about the Dutt's affinities and loyalties.

Ex business partner Sanjay Gupta was not invited. Not even a condolence phone call (his mother expired two days ago) The other business partner Ekta Kapoor was not on the guest list either. But Ekta's uncle and her former CEO Ramesh Sippy was present. And no, Sanjay Dutts' sisters or brothers-in-law were not included in the celebrations.

Sanju looks relaxed

Sanjay Dutt's new political guru Amar Singh was driven to the party by Abhishek Bachchan. There was every kind of alcohol in the bar and there was dancing too. Sanju baba danced with his wife and some of the other guests. He looked more relaxed than he has in recent months.

The party started at 9.30 pm. And at 4 in the morning, the music was still blaring loudly. Says a guest, "Sanju and Maanyata saw off the last guest at around 6 am, and then crashed out. Sanju left for Bangkok late last night. So he planned to sleep it out all of yesterday."

Minus the spouses

Surprisingly for a wedding-anniversary bash, there was a scarcity ofu00a0 spouses. Ajay Devgan and Dino showed up without Kajol and Lara, respectively. Shatrughan Sinha's better-half Poonam was missing. Kirron Kher came minus Anupam and Ameesha Patelu00a0 showed up without heru00a0 beau Kaanav. The solo brigade included Kunal Khemu, Riteish Deshmukh, Bunty Walia, Rohit Shettty, Raju Hirani and Vidya Balan and Karan Johar, who drove straight from the airportu00a0 tou00a0 the Dutts' residence.

The party was remarkably free of stress. "No brawl though a lot of booze. No feud though a lot of yummy food. No cops though a lot of incessantly loud music," quipped one of the last guests to leave.
