Rakhi Fervour

It is that time of the year when all boys are scared to their wits fearing no good-looking girl ties a rakhi round their wrist and makes a 'bhaiyya' out of them.

However, the same person does also long for their sisters to get the rakhi tied, have sweets and yeah, give gifts too!

When the entire nation celebrates the brother-sister bond on Tuesday, how can tellywood be behind. Though many in TV industry are away from their siblings because of work priorities, every one seemed to be equally excited about Rakshabandhan.


Vibha Anand, who plays Sugna in 'Balikha Vadhu' says she too would miss her younger brother, who is in Dehradun.

"I miss my younger brother who is in Dehradun, my home town. I have been in Mumbai for three years now and courier rakhis, sweets and lots of live to my brother every year on Rakshabandhan," she said.

On her on-screen brother Jagya, she says she is getting well with the new actor too after the generation leap in the serial.

"I have been a part of Balika Vadhu since the beginning and have tied rakhi to Avinash Mukherjee earlier. I have enjoyed brother-sister chemistry with Shashank too who has replaced Avinash after the leap," she said.


Nandish Sandhu, who plays Veer in Uttaran, misses not having a real sister.

"I do not have a real sister but have many cousins for whom I am the most loved bhaiyya."

"Since my entire family is in Dholpur, I do not get time to visit them on festivals due to work. But whenever I go, I make sure I ask my sisters for their wish list and fulfill it to the most," he said.
