It is Eid-Ul-Adha, popularly known as Bakri Eid tomorrow and like all devout Muslims, actor Gauahar Khan is also looking forward to celebrating the day with friends and family.
Food is the number one item on her mind, and Gauahar says that she can gorge on Sheer Korma for breakfast, lunch and dinner! Busy with her last minute preparations, Gauahar talks to CS about the festival and her plans:
Time for devotion
Bakri Eid is all about the ‘kurbaani’ i.e. sacrifice. My sister Negar is quite active in selecting the goat and looking after it. So, the sacrifice will be the main aspect. My mother is back from Dubai, so we are looking forward to celebrating as a family. We will invite our friends over as well. This festival has a huge religious significance for Muslims. It marks the completion of the pilgrimage to Haj. As you know, every Muslim has to make that pilgrimage once in a lifetime. My parents and older sisters have already done it, and Inshallah I will also go there sometime soon.
