While last year it was a Big Birthday bash which saw the who's who of Bollywood from the Bachchan clan to Akshay Kumar attend, this year, Asin, whose birthday was on the 26th of Oct, travelled to Paris to celebrate the occasion with her close family and friends.

It is a lesser known fact that the actress is also fluent in French. "She was a topper in French in school." Reveals a source. "Paris is one of her favourite cities. Since this year her birthday falls on a Sunday, she decided to take off to Paris for the weekend."

This is not her first time in Paris though. She has shot in the city several times previously, the last being for the film 'London Dreams' with Salman Khan. Adds the source "Asin has been out of the country since Diwali. So she flew in to Paris from New York for her birthday weekend."

Confirming the news says Asin, "This year it was a low key celebration. I love Paris. Who doesn't! So I decided to take off to the city for my birthday weekend. Culture, history, great food and of course fashion! Paris is perfect."
