Har Har Mahadev! COLORS’ stars share what Maha Shivratri means to them

Priyanka Chahar Choudhary, essaying the titular role in COLORS’ ‘Naagin 7, shares,

“Every step of this journey with Naagin 7 feels nothing short of Mahadev’s blessing. Week after week, when I see the show touching hearts and topping the charts, I feel overwhelmed with gratitude. It reminds me that nothing is possible without Bholenath’s aashirwad. Playing the Naagin is not just a role for me, it’s a responsibility and a blessing I carry with deep devotion. Lord Shiva teaches us humility, surrender, and strength, and I try to bring that same purity into my work every day. There are moments of doubt, exhaustion, and pressure, but in those moments, I close my eyes, remember Mahadev, and find my courage again. The love of my fans feels like his divine grace flowing through them to me. The bond between Mahadev and the Naag has always been sacred, and portraying this character makes me feel spiritually connected to that energy. On Maha Shivratri, I pray with all my heart for the strength to stay grounded, grateful, and worthy of the love I receive. This journey is his gift, and I will always cherish it. Har Har Mahadev.”

Arjun Bijlani from COLORS’ Laughter Chefs Unlimited Entertainment’ shares,

“My relationship with faith has evolved as I’ve grown older and experienced life. Earlier, it was about asking, holding on, and protecting everything I thought was mine. Today, it’s much bigger than anything I hold dear and that’s precisely because it has taught me detachment. Mahadev has taught me to trust the process completely. That mantra shows up in the way I live my life now - whether it’s being a family man or stepping into the kitchen as a rookie chef on ‘Laughter Chefs Unlimited Entertainment.’ Of course, I compete to win, but more than that, I try to give myself up to the journey. Everyone is fighting a battle we know nothing about, and this show gives people a chance to forget their worries and laugh out loud. On Maha Shivratri, I pray that Mahadev brings fulfillment, balance, and peace into the lives of all his devotees. Om Namah Shivay.”

Deepika Singh essaying the role of Mangal in COLORS’ ‘Mangal Lakshmi’ shares,

"I believe that Shiv and Shakti exist within each one of us. My shooting schedule for Mangal Lakshmi keeps me constantly on my toes, so following every traditional ritual on the day itself isn’t always possible. But faith, for me, goes far beyond rituals. I try to visit the Tungareshwar temple once a month whenever I can, but for me, yoga, pranayama, and meditation are just as sacred. On days like Maha Shivratri, I keep my food simple and alkaline, I don’t fast, and I focus on balance and awareness. If I can honour the divine through my work, my breath, and my mindfulness, I know I’m connected to that universal energy - wherever I am. Har Har Mahadev.”

Shakti Anand playing the role of Mahadev in COLORS’ ‘Mahadev & Sons’ shares,

“When I was offered the role of Mahadev in ‘Mahadev & Sons,’ it truly felt like a blessing from Bholenath himself - something far beyond coincidence. I am a Shiv bhakt, and somewhere along my spiritual journey, the need to demand or pray for specific outcomes has simply diminished. Shiv teaches you that when you surrender, life finds its own rhythm. Everyone deserves to experience that priceless, blissful state where problems begin to feel temporary and anxiety slowly reduces to ash. For me, it all started with meditation becoming a constant in my life, not just on Maha Shivratri but every day. As Adiyogi, Lord Shiva gifted the world meditation and yoga, and I’ve experienced firsthand how it centres you and plugs you to a universal energy source that flows through every living being. On Maha Shivratri, I ask nothing, but give thanks for everything I've received so far.”
