From lighting diyas in memory of the martyred soldiers to spending time with their families, B-Towners have lots of plans
While the Diwali parties in B-Town are on in full swing, they have big plans for festive days. From making time for their family from their busy schedule to some naach-gaana and khaana-peena, there’s a lot on the cards.
Diwali has to be at home, no matter what. The family has to be together for that occasion. Or at least, we try to be. But all of us have our own crazy schedules. Sometimes it becomes impossible to fulfill family obligations, but we try our best.
I would like to celebrate this Diwali by lighting up my house in the memory and respect of the martyred soldiers of our country.
Every year, I make sure that I am with my family. Last year, I had to skip the family get-together, but this Diwali, I’ll be there.
I will mostly be working. For me, it’s Durga Puja and I got to spend time in Kolkata with my family after almost a decade. Tomorrow is Kali Puja for us, chhoti Diwali. I will be in Kolkata for half a day and then go straight to Pune to shoot. I’m back in Mumbai for half day on Diwali. Will spend time with my two-year-old grandniece and hopefully eat a lot of savouries. My most favourite part of any festival is the food. I don’t burn crackers and mostly stay indoors.
I am in Chennai to be with my parents and my kids. For me, any time with family is Diwali.
Just a small puja at home. Then I’ll be sitting on a ledge watching the world explode to the sound of firecrackers.
No crackers! Noise-free, pollution-free Diwali! Lots of nice khaana and naach-gaana!
Diwali this time is definitely low-key for me and my family. The destruction and loss of human life all around us doesn’t quite put us in a festive mood. It used to be a big occasion in our home. Diwali meant family and friends, homemade mithai and hand-made diyas. The phuljharis and patakas were so appealing. Now, they’re simply a public nuisance. Now, everything is made-to-order. You call a shop, you get flowers sent to friends. You call a sweet shop and they have mithais sent in fancy designer-packets and expensive matkas. It’s not about feelings and warmth any longer. I miss my mother. She represented the Diwali spirit for me. I miss the Diwali smells at home. It’s strange. But I can’t remember a single Diwali song of my own. Maybe that’s an indication of how difficult and different Diwali has become now.
For me, celebrations and festivals are meaningless. I don’t wish anyone on their birthday or for Diwali.
Bollywood is a gambler’s den. We gamble all through the year. Why do we need to play cards on Diwali?
