Diwali 2021: Kangana has a message for those advocating ban on firecrackers; Shibani joins Farhan for Dhanteras pooja

Kangana Ranaut has spoken up against activities and celebrities who have been promoting cracker free Diwali on social media. The actress made her stand clear on the subject by sharing a video of Sadhguru who has suggested that anyone who wants to ban crackers over concerns of air pollution should walk to office for three days instead of driving their car.

Kangana shared the video in an Instagram story and lauded Sadhguru for his message. She praised him writing, “He is the man who caused world record of green cover by planting millions of trees.” In his video Sadhguru said that he loved bursting crackers as a child and the post read, “Concern about air pollution is not a reason to prevent kids from experiencing the joy of firecrackers. As your sacrifice for them, walk to your office for 3 days. Let them have the fun of bursting crackers. –Sg”.

Filmmaker Farhan Akthar and his partner Shibani Dandekar on the other hand started their Diwali celebration on a rather sweet note. The actress joined Farhan at the Dhanteras pooja at the Excel Entertainment office where Ritesh Sidhwani and his wife were also present.

Farhan shared an adorable picture of him applying tika on Shibani’s forehead during the pooja. He wished his followers Happy Diwali sharing the photo.
