The Senior VP at Atrangii says that she and her family have always celebrated the festival with much fanfare, albeit in a private setting. Actress Reflects on 25 Years of Intimate Ganesh Chaturthi at In-Laws' Home “Ganesh Chaturthi, I think, is the only big festival in my in-laws' house. They have been welcoming Ganpati Ji into their home for the past 25 years. But it is a small affair. It’s a private event, almost like a meeting with God,” she says. Talking about how she manages to take time off work for the festivities, she shares, “I think anyone can take out one and a half days for Ganpati. Work does come up, but I am not compromising on anything. Work happens side by side.” She adds, “Visiting Ganpati, especially for just one and a half days, gets very difficult. But at my friend's place, where they keep Ganpati for more days, my family and I make it a point to go for prayers at night on some days.” When asked what she will ask from Bappa this year, she says, “Every year, what I ask for is good health and good thoughts. Everything else takes a backseat. I feel if your health is fine, you can do everything and anything on your own. Negativity and demoralization stay away.” Read also: Sharvari Wagh breaks silence on poor box office response of Vedaa Actress Ritabhari Chakraborty accused the industry of sexual harassment Farhan Akhtar did not like Ranbir Kapoor's film Animal for this reason Natasha shared a cryptic post after divorce from Hardik Pandya Sharvari Wagh breaks silence on poor box office response of Vedaa Actress Ritabhari Chakraborty accused the industry of sexual harassment Farhan Akhtar did not like Ranbir Kapoor's film Animal for this reason Natasha shared a cryptic post after divorce from Hardik Pandya #NIVEDITA BASU Related Articles Latest Stories Read the Next Article
