Talking about her fondest memories of celebrating the festival, Shraddha says, “Ever since I was a kid, Gudi Padwa has been a part of my life. I have the fondest memories of celebrating the day with my grandparents. We would have til gul (sesame and jaggery laddoos) and I would look forward to being fed lots of food by my grandparents. My fondest memories are while growing up. Now I am almost always filming. Traditionally our family would get together, but I don’t get to be a part of that now.” Shraddha’s mother Shivangi is a Maharashtrian and it’s been a tradition for the actor to celebrate the day with her extended family. Special Maharashtrian delicacies like Puran Poli, Sheera and Shrikhand are prepared each year and Shraddha, who has a sweet tooth, takes a day off her diet to binge on them.
