Sharing her excitement about the festival, she says, "On this occasion my mother makes yummy sweets and we do put up the Gudi. It's a very exciting festival and I get to eat a lot of sweets because my mom makes that at home."

Reminiscing some cute memories related to the festival she says, "The beautiful memory which I have is related to my grand mother who is no more. She use to make fantastic Puranpolis which was loved by me. We used to put up a Gudi which has always been a cute experience."

As you are married to a Punjabi, so tell us something about the atmosphere at home during such festivals, "I am a Maharashtrian and will always be. Though I am married to a Punjabi but that doesn't change the fact. We celebrate both Punjabi as well as Maharashtrian festivals happily."
