Saira Banu pens a moving note
Saira Banu penned a heartfelt note to celebrate Eid al-Fitr 2024. She talked about her introduction to the festival after her marriage to Dilip Kumar. The veteran actress spoke about how her house became the centre of celebration for all of their friends, from the industry and otherwise, extending to loyal friends, loved ones and family members.
Reminiscing about her early life, Saira Banu shared, "From our childhood, which we spent partly in India and partly in London, my brother Sultan Bhai and I had the freedom to celebrate all festivals and participate in the celebration of all joyful occasions in the neighborhood, irrespective of the nationality and faith of the revelers. When we returned to India after completing high school in London, we surprised all our family members. We were so strongly rooted in our Indian culture and customs that we didn’t need to be told what the festivals were about. We slipped easily into the cosmopolitan social milieu of Mumbai. We ushered in the month of Ramadan, observed the fasts, and prayed as we should. We looked forward to Eid with eagerness to invite our friends to join in our celebration of the day."
