“Every year, my mom makes fantastic til laddoos, made with jaggery, secret ingredients and loads of love! My day starts with eating my favourite Maharashtrian delicacy called Gulachi Poli, followed by flying kites. My fondest memories from childhood include flying kites with my friends and having til ke laddoos. Our Marathi culture has a saying that comes with this sweet - ‘Til gul ghya ni goad goad bola'. So, this festive season, we must think positively, and quit all negativities. I pray this Makar Sankranti brings lots of prosperity and happiness in everyone’s life, and I hope everything becomes normal as before.”
Pariva Pranati aka Vandana Wagle from Sony SAB’s Wagle Ki Duniya - Nayi Peedhi Naye Kissey:
“This year, on Makar Sankranti, I would indeed be largely occupied with Wagle Ki Duniya’ s shoot. However, as part of my family's Sankranti custom, I'll start the day with one of my favourite sweets, Til Ke Laddoo. My mother would always prepare it for me, which I would then eat to my heart’s full content. This is one of my most cherished festival memories. Wishing everyone a wonderful Makar Sankranti!”
Sumeet Raghavan aka Rajesh Wagle from Sony SAB’s Wagle Ki Duniya - Nayi Peedhi Naye Kissey:
“Makar Sankranti is the first festival of the year and is celebrated with much vigor and joy. Last year, we celebrated the day with authentic Maharashtrian rituals of haldi kumkum while feeding each other delicious til-gul laddu followed by the sheer joy of kite flying with the entire on-screen Wagle family. My fondest memory of this festival is when my entire family and I would sit together around a bonfire, enjoy the weather, and celebrate the harvest. To add to the festive cheer, my mom would make peanut chikki, which is definitely my go-to Sankranti dessert. I would like to wish all my fans a joyous and safe Makar Sankranti, and I heartily pray that it brings prosperity and good health to all throughout the year.”
Karuna Pandey aka Pushpa Patel from Sony SAB’s Pushpa Impossible:
“Uttarayan is the Hindi word for "enjoying to the maximum." During the festival, I enjoy flying kites, and the best part is that it functions like a terrace party where you can also eat delicious winter foods. Every year, I greatly look forward to the festival. This year, I will be celebrating the festival with my family and wishing everyone a very Happy Makar Sankranti and Happy Uttarayan.”
