Celeb Gossips: Heres how Deepika Padukone plans to ring in Diwali 2020 with family
Deepika said that right from her childhood days, in Bengaluru, Diwali has
"always been an additional special festival" for her.
After a tumultuous year, it's finally time to open-heartedly welcome the
festive season with Diwali 2020. Actor Deepika Padukone, during a recent
interview, opened about her plans for the day and recalled her childhood in
Bangalore.
Deepika said that right from her childhood days, in Bengaluru, Diwali has
"always been an additional special festival" for her. But this year, thanks to
the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak, Deepika Padukone plans to "keep things quiet
low key."
In an interview with Hindustan Times, she said, "It’s been a difficult year
for several in several ways [owing to the pandemic]. So, what we shall do is,
to remain reception, do an easy puja, and spend time with family."
She added, "Honestly, we are getting to keep things quiet low key, keeping
within the mind the sensitivity (of the situation) towards the environment and
therefore the people around us. It’s been a difficult year for several in
several ways [owing to the pandemic]."
Deepika also said that this year, on Diwali, "she wishes for everyone,
healthiness, and peace of mind. And that’s my prayer for people most of the
time, even once I wish them on their birthdays as I feel that’s the important
core of everything we do. Everything else is secondary."
Deepika also spoke about the simplest thing about the festival of lights and
said, "For me, it’s the diyas as I'm all for the sunshine. Also, in my family,
everyone’s names -- dad, Prakash, mum, Ujjala, sister Anisha -- including
mine, are literally different synonyms of the word, light. Hence, Diwali has
always been an additional special festival for us, and lighting diyas is my
thing (smiles). Keeping them ready, readying the wick, putting ghee, and
lighting them, during the pooja, is what I anticipate to the foremost.
