Actress Ayesha Kapoor, who is currently essaying the parallel lead in Sherdil Shergill has special plans for Dhanteras. During a recent interview, she revealed that with time Diwali has become a special festival in her life.
She said, “Since I come from a Muslim Family I don’t know the exact rituals for the Diwali festival but since childhood, it has been quite a fun festival that we use to look forward to enjoying with our friends who followed the rituals. I love the way festivities bring friends and family together and we all enjoy some love and brotherhood. I really love celebrating Diwali with my friends, we attend card night and enjoy the festival foods. I remember when during my academic years I always used to wait so that I would get the opportunity to wear traditional outfits and go for Diwali parties and we would burn crackers and it was so fun. At times I used to travel on Diwali vacation.”
Ayesha who is also known for her role in popular digital series like Pari, Fark, and Vaishya, added, “I’m fond of gold jewelry and since the time I started earning I made it a ritual to buy a gold ornament for me and my family to mark the celebrations of Dhanteras. I respect and believe the fact that buying gold brings good luck to a home. By God’s grace this year I’m having some good savings, so I hope I could get something more for myself and I also plan to sponsor a needful child’s education to just make sure good luck comes to others too along with me.”
