Bhai Dooj Special: COLORS’ actors open up about their bond with their siblings
Tanvi Dogra, essaying the role of Neeti in COLORS’ ‘Parineetii’ says, “On every Bhai Dooj, I perform an aarti for my brother. His favourite part of the celebration is exchanging gifts such as clothes, sweets, and gadgets. I make sure that every year, I cook a special meal for my brother. It’s a feast with all his favourite dishes. I thank my brother for always being there for me and encouraging me to be the best version of myself. I pray that all his dreams come true. Happy Bhai Dooj everyone!”
Aastha Sharma, essaying the role of Neerja in COLORS’ ‘Neerja…Ek Nayi Pehchaan’ says, “Bhai Dooj holds a special place in my heart. Though this Bhai Dooj, I won’t be able to celebrate it with my family. But every year its like a custom where I love gorging on sweets and spending time with my brother. He’s my biggest supporter and critic. Despite the teasing, I can’t imagine living without him. Our bond is all about making jokes about the quirks of a few family members. I send my warm wishes to everyone enjoying the special magic of having a sibling. Happy Bhai Dooj!”
Anchal Sahu, playing the role of Parineeti in COLORS’ Parineetii says, “While Raksha Bandhan is the time I receive gifts, Bhai Dooj is when I happily give back to my brothers. Our day begins with a visit to the temple and a home puja. Following that, it unfolds into a delightful family get-together, complete with lunch and card games. Though I won’t be physically present with my brothers this year, the cherished tradition of exchanging gifts remains intact. I am grateful to my brothers for consistently having my back and providing unwavering support. Wishing them and everyone a joyous Bhai Dooj!”
Aditi Bhagat, playing the role of Aasma in COLORS’ ‘Udaariyaan’ says, “Diwali holds a special place in my heart as my favorite festival. As the celebrations wind down, I eagerly wait for the warmth of Bhai Dooj at home. It’s a time when my brothers visit, and we all enjoy the delightful meal together, creating some amazing memories. We flip through our childhood pictures, taking a nostalgic journey down memory lane. Later in the evening, we make sure that we go on long drives, savoring street food along the way. Here’s wishing everyone a Happy Bhai Dooj! May this year draw you even closer to your siblings and overflow your lives with joy and prosperity.”
