Mumbai, March 30 (NationPress) On the occasion of Gudi Padwa this Sunday, actress Rakul Preet Singh shared that her most cherished dish is “puran polis”, as it is prepared with immense affection.
When asked about her favorite Gudi Padwa treat, Rakul enthusiastically said: “Puran Poli, without a doubt! It’s sweet, tender, and feels just like home. I’ve relished it during festivals since childhood, and every bite brings back those joyful family memories. Plus, it’s crafted with such love that it’s simply irresistible!”
What does Gudi Padwa signify for Rakul?
“To me, Gudi Padwa represents fresh starts and positive energy. It’s a season when everything seems renewed—the vibes, the hopes, the festivities. I adore how it unites families, whether for pujas, delightful food, or simply enjoying each other's company.”
“It serves as a reminder to welcome change with an open heart!”
The actress enjoys dressing up for festivals.
“Gudi Padwa is the ideal occasion to don a stunning saree—something vibrant and traditional. I typically choose a yellow or red saree, complemented by a bindi, large jhumkas, and fresh gajra in my hair. There’s a unique charm in wearing Indian attire on festive occasions—it truly enhances the celebratory spirit,” she mentioned.
Gudi Padwa aligns with Chaitra Navratri, a festival widely celebrated in North India. The actress reminisced about some fond memories.
“Growing up in North India, Chaitra Navratri was always a significant time. I recall the festive atmosphere—morning prayers, the sound of bhajans, and the delightful aroma of satvik meals at home. The last two days were particularly special because of the kanya pujan, where we would visit relatives' homes and receive little gifts and prasad.”
“It was such a warm, joyful tradition that continues to evoke beautiful memories. Even today, I strive to uphold those traditions whenever possible, especially the fasting and celebrations at home.”
