MUMBAI: Dhanteras marks the beginning of Diwali celebrations, symbolizing spiritual victory and prosperity. On this auspicious day, purchasing new items during the favorable muhurat is believed to bring blessings and good fortune throughout the year. This year, Sony SAB’s leading actors share how they are preparing for the upcoming occasion of Dhanteras and the things they plan to purchase this season –
Prachi Bansal, who essays the role of Sita in Shrimad Ramayan, said,
“On Dhanteras, my mom usually takes care of everything that needs to be bought. But since I’ve been living alone for some time now, I make sure to do the pooja. Whenever I have a break from shooting, I try to buy something for my mom and dad. I have never really bought anything for myself, and even this year, if I find the time, I would definitely like to buy new utensils and gold for my mom.”
Garimah Parihar, who essays the role of Deepti in Pushpa Impossible, said,
“Every Dhanteras, we usually welcome prosperity by buying gold, but this year, I’ve decided to start my Diwali celebrations with something different and exciting—a new car! It’s a fresh beginning for the festive season, and I’m sure it’s going to be an amazing ride ahead, both literally and figuratively. Here’s to embracing new traditions and looking forward to all the joy and celebrations Diwali brings!”
Mansi Sharma, who essays the role of Shilpa Khanna in Badall Pe Paon Hai, said,
“On this Dhanteras, I believe it’s important to buy a silver plate for the pooja, as it brings purity and good luck. Silver has a special place in our traditions and using it in the rituals is believed to invite blessings. This year, I’m excited to add something unique to my collection, something special that will not only be part of the celebrations but also remind me of the joy and positivity of this festive season.”
Shefali Rana, who essays the role of Poonam Khanna in Badall Pe Paon Hai, said,
“Dhanteras marks the beginning of festivities, as we welcome prosperity and happiness into our homes. The preparations like creating vibrant rangolis to adorn the entrance, lighting diyas that bring warmth and light, and decorating the home with colorful torans are filled with excitement and anticipation. We also indulge in purchasing new clothes and jewellery, especially precious gold, which is believed to attract good fortune. Every small act, from cleaning the house to arranging for the pooja, carries a deep sense of joy and positivity, setting the tone for the festive season ahead.”
