DHANTERAS: TV Personas Reveal Their Shopping Plans

Gold coins, silverware, utensils - Telly actors have their Dhanteras shopping list ready. As they celebrate Dhanteras, our favourite TV actors share their shopping plans for the festival this year.

Sneha Wagh: I follow the ritual of buying gold on every Dhanteras, be it a gold coin or something small. It makes me feel good and positive, moreover girls like any form of shopping.

Shadman Khan: Dhanteras is the day of Laxmiji. On this day, I always want to earn or buy something profitable. This day marks the beginning of Diwali which also happens to be one of the biggest festival in our country. I always strive to move ahead in life and every year in Diwali, I pledge to better myself as a person and grow. I would also like to take this opportunity to request all the Indians to buy Mitti diyaas from the roadsides and not from the malls because the roadside vendors are really hardworking and our little contribution would make their Diwali indeed a happy one!

Aanand Goradia: This Dhanteras also I will buy silver as it is considered shagun. It can be anything from a coin, vessel to an idol. I have been following the ritual for many years. 

Ankit Siwach: Personally, I have never bought anything specifically for Dhanteras, but yes, I do call up my family and ask what they have bought. I share happiness and celebrate. I might buy something in gold this year, let’s see. This year is special as my show is starting as well.

Shashank Vyas: I will be investing in some gold this year as gold has resale value as well. Gold is always considered auspicious

Laksh Lalwani: Dhanteras is special for me because it means that Diwali is not far away now. As a kid, too, I used to get so excited. Maybe this year I will buy something for the house.
