Diwali is looming close and as our stars get ready to celebrate the festival of lights, they share with NIKITA WADHAWAN special gifts they have either received or given on this day
Bhumi Pednekar
Life has taken a big jump in 2017 for me. Usually, I spend Diwali with my family, but this year I will be busy shooting. But I am very excited to be working on Diwali. It is a very auspicious day and if I get the chance to work on such a day, then it would be a good luck for the entire year to come. That is the best gift I can ask for.
Ssharad Malhotraa
For my family, spending time with me is the biggest gift that I can give them. Last year, I surprised them with a visit back home in Kolkata, on Diwali. We celebrated Diwali together after 8 long years. I still remember the smiles on their faces and their expressions when I came in front of them. They were almost in tears because of the happiness that they felt.
Adaa Khan
I love chocolates, but being an actor, we always limit our sweet intake. However, Diwali is a time when I forget all diets and focus on eating goodies and gorging on some of my favourite items. A friend gifted me a big chocolate hamper three years back and for three days I was on a chocolate diet. It was amazing. I wish I get one this year too!
Shakti Arora
Diwali is all about family for me and I always try to do something that makes the entire family happy on Diwali. I gifted my parents a property on Diwali, a few years back. That was the most emotional and expensive gift that I have ever given anyone. The smile on parents’ faces was out of this world. I wish that I continue to do well in my profession so that I am able to buy them all that their hearts desire.
Romit Raj
My most Special Diwali gift was my first Diwali with my daughter Reha. We got reha’s room decorated with beautiful candles and had customised gifts for our family members. We had family dinner after the pooja and surprised everyone with new car.
Neha Marda
The best gift of my life on Diwali has been a ring which I always wanted to own. It was a solitaire and it was my first gift which I bought for myself. I absolutely love it and it has been like my statement piece since then.
Dalljiet Kaur
I was born on Diwali, so it’s technically my birthday and my family tries to make it special for me every year. Also, every year I prefer to work on this day as I believe that there is no better respect to Laxmiji than working on this day. One of my friends gifted me an expensive bag on Diwali and that is one of my treasured possessions till date.
Shashank Vyas
I stay with my father in Mumbai and I bought a house two years back. That was the best gift that I have ever bought for myself. My father was also very happy as he could see how well I am doing and how much I have grown in my profession.
Sheeba
My husband gifted me a Bvlgari Serpenti watch as a surprise on Diwali because he knew how much I really wanted it. It is one of my favourite gifts as it has an emotional value to it as well. It shows how much he cares and thinks about me. I love wearing the watch and try to do so as much as possible.
Parvati Vaze
For me it has to be a very special jewellery set which was more like an heirloom that mom handed over to me on my 21st Diwali. It has been the most special gift and I will cherish having it forever.
Shaleen Bhanot
God has been very kind. I have always got something special in Diwali every year, but I think what beats all is 2013 Diwali. I was blessed with a child just 6 days post Diwali on the 9th November. I think that was the best gift from God to me.
