From shopping to bonding, TV actors make plans for Bhai Dooj

Bhai Dooj, is the day when the sisters of this country pray for the well being and long life of their brothers. The emotion that the sisters have for their brothers in their hearts somehow doubles up and along with that the Diwali fervour that still lingers adds the much-needed zing to the celebrations. Along with all and sundry, the television actors and actresses too make sure to enjoy this festival to the fullest. Desimartini.com got in touch with some of the TV siblings to know their plans.

Saurabh Pandey: On Bhai dooj, it's best if siblings can meet each other because the whole meaning of Bhai Dooj is that siblings meet one another on the auspicious day, according to the Vedic calendar. So, this Bhai dooj, I will be seeing my sister in Delhi and spending quality time with her.  It is a good occasion for the brother and sister to connect, after all life is all about loving your family.

Ankit Siwach: This year, I would be shooting on the auspicious day. Bhai dooj has been a very exciting festival, all the cousins used to wait for it. After Diwali celebrations, I used to go to Ghaziabad which was a common spot for us to meet and celebrate. I have the fondest memories of the day. Now, everyone is settled in different parts of the world, so it gets tough to meet every year, but thanks to video calls and messengers, we stay in touch and celebrate it virtually. My sister Suruchi Verma is quite close to me. I will miss seeing her this year.

Vahbiz Dorabjee: This Bhaidooj my entire family is here. We are Parsis but my mother has made us celebrate all the festivals. We love all the festivities and religions. My birthday is also coming so my brother Daniel  might take me shopping and spoil me this Bhai dooj  I am close to my brother and bhabhi. Life is after all al about loving your family.

Ssharad Malhotra: My sister Reema Pawa lives is kolkata. I couldn't go for Diwali and Bhaidooj. She is elder to me and is my support system. She is always a phone call away. A brother-sister relationship is the purest. I will wish my sister on the phone but I will surely miss seeing her. She means the world to me. She has been an important part of my growing up years.
