Actress Mouni Roy celebrated her 41st birthday with a Goa getaway surrounded by close friends. Marking the occasion on Instagram, the actress shared a series of photographs from the celebration along with a personal note about friendship, gratitude and the people who have remained by her side through different chapters of her life.
Rather than focusing solely on the festivities, Mouni’s birthday message reflected on the relationships she values and the sense of clarity she said the past year had brought her.
Mouni Roy Calls Her Birthday “Cathartic”
Mouni opened her birthday note with a playful reference to Alice in Wonderland, describing herself as being somewhere between curiosity and the unfamiliar.
“A little whimsical, a little lost, and happily curious… just like Alice, somewhere between here and Wonderland,”
She then described the personal significance of the birthday, writing:
“This birthday felt cathartic, but also this year I know who’s mine & I’m so grateful.”
Her message focused on the friends who have continued to be present through both easier and more difficult periods. The Instagram carousel featured several of her female friends alongside two male friends, while Mouni also acknowledged a friend who was unable to join the Goa celebration.
She ended the note with a spiritual message:
“Only love & grace & strength. Om Namah Shivaay.”

Mouni’s Instagram carousel offered glimpses of the birthday getaway and the time she spent with her friends in Goa.
In one photograph, the actress poses in a blue dress against a lush green backdrop, creating a distinctly tropical setting. Another image captures her enjoying pool time with friends.
The collection also includes more relaxed moments from the trip, combining posed photographs with candid snapshots. Together, the images provide a glimpse into the private celebration and the group of friends who joined Mouni for the occasion.
Mouni Roy and Suraj Nambiar’s Separation
Mouni’s birthday celebration comes after public attention around her personal life and her relationship with Suraj Nambiar.
In May, Nambiar addressed reports surrounding their separation in a social media statement. He rejected claims concerning financial disputes and denied speculation about the involvement of another person.
“Recent baseless reports surrounding our separation have been made in bad taste and are absolutely malicious. Let me set the record straight once and for all. There is no alimony. There are no disputes. There is no third party involved.”
He also objected to the involvement of friends in reports about the couple’s personal circumstances, writing:
“I want to state this clearly and finally: there is no truth to any of the claims being made about either of us or about any third party. Dragging other people into this is not cool. Specially innocent friends who have nothing to do with this. Mouni and I have both conducted ourselves with dignity through this period, and we expect that same dignity to be extended to us by those reporting on it.”
Mouni Roy and Suraj Nambiar Confirmed Their Decision
Mouni Roy and Suraj Nambiar later addressed their relationship in a joint Instagram statement, saying that they had decided to part ways and wanted to handle the situation privately.
The statement also pushed back against what they described as fictionalised accounts of their personal lives.
“We note with dismay the unnecessary and intrusive attention into our personal lives by certain quarters of the media. We would like to state that we have decided to part ways and are taking the necessary time to address matters privately and amicably. Attempts have been made to sensationalize our private lives by circulation of fictitious narratives and blatant falsehoods, which do not reflect the reality of our relationship.”
The former couple said their decision followed reflection on their changing personal priorities and that they intended to move forward separately while retaining mutual respect.
“After thoughtful reflection on evolving personal priorities, we have mutually chosen to move forward on separate paths with respect and understanding. At this point, we are focused on navigating this phase thoughtfully and privately. We will endeavour to cherish our friendship in times to come. We sincerely appreciate your understanding, respect for our privacy, and the continued support extended to us during this time.”
A Birthday Focused on the People Who Matter
Against that backdrop, Mouni’s 41st birthday message placed the emphasis on friendship, gratitude and personal reflection. Her words about knowing “who’s mine” appeared alongside photographs of the people she chose to celebrate with in Goa.
The actress’ latest update ultimately offered a more intimate look at her birthday—one centred less on the occasion itself and more on the relationships she considers meaningful.
