Are you a dandiya person or garba? Have you ever got hurt playing with dandiya sticks?
I am neither a dandiya person nor a garba person. I don't play. I usually don't get time for this. I have never played. That's how I am safe from being hurt.
Which is your all-time favorite Dandiya song from Bollywood?
âDholi taaro' track is my favourite from the film âHum Dil De Chuke Sanam'.
Do you fast during the nine days?
I don't fast every year. This year, I was finding it difficult to fast, But, suddenly, I felt that I must fast during Navratri. So, this year, I am fasting.
Do you follow the colour code for all the nine days?
In our daily hectic schedule, it becomes really difficult to follow color code. Somehow, I am unable to maintain those dress code during 9 days.
What's your take on accessories? Are you a minimal person or you prefer the âquintessential' Navratri make up?
It's not about just Navratri or any other festival. I simply love bracelets and bangles. I also love the long earrings like the jhumkas, which happens to be one of my favourite accessories. I usually wear it even if there is no festival.
