She sent me a rakhi and a heartfelt note that deeply touched me. Her words, ‘I hope every year I get to tie you a rakhi and pray for your well-being,’ resonate with me. Despite the distance, her love and blessings encompass me. This Raksha Bandhan might be different, but the love is just as profound. I hope that next year, we’ll celebrate together. Happy Raksha Bandhan to all the hearts that beat with love, regardless of the miles.”
Romanch Mehta: Preparing for an upcoming web series “Baghin,” Romanch Mehta said, “Raksha Bandhan holds a special place in my heart, and this year, I was determined to make it count. Despite unexpected twists in my shooting schedule, I knew I couldn’t miss being with my sister and family on this cherished day. Balancing work and personal commitments in the industry is challenging, but the bond with my sister takes precedence. I wrapped up my scenes, caught a flight, and hurried back to my hometown to celebrate Raksha Bandhan. For me, this festival isn’t just a tradition; it’s a promise of protection, love, and togetherness. It’s a reminder that no matter where life takes us, family remains at the core. Even when I couldn’t visit my hometown, Debina Bonnerjee and Priyanka Kalantri ensured that I felt connected by tying Rakhis on me. This Raksha Bandhan, I didn’t just balance my professional and personal life; I reinforced the sibling love that binds us eternally.”
Smriti Khanna: Renowned for her role in Zee TV’s “Durga,” Smriti Khanna shared, “Raksha Bandhan has a unique place in my heart. Growing up as an only child, I longed for a brother to celebrate with. But my wise mother introduced me to a beautiful concept – she told me that Lord Ganesha is my brother, my protector. Since then, I tie a Rakhi to Ganesha, knowing he watches over me. It’s not just a ritual; it’s a connection that embodies the true essence of Raksha Bandhan – protection and love. Lord Ganesha may not be visible, but his presence is felt, and that’s what makes this festival magical for me.”
