A source says, "The party was held at Priyanka's residence and her mother, Madhu, had invited all her industry friends, including Deepika Padukone (left) and Sonakshi Sinha (right). However, neither of them was part of it. Deepika is holidaying abroad and expected to come back only on July 22. Sona, on the other hand, was very much in town, but could not make is due to certain other commitments. She even apologised to Priyanka on Twitter."
