He is just like my annoying little brother: Chinmayee Salvi on her bond with Sheehan, her onscreen brother

Raksha Bandhan, a festival deeply rooted in Indian culture, transcends its traditional boundaries to symbolize the profound bonds of protection and love that exist not only between siblings but also among friends and diverse relationships. The essence of this heartwarming celebration has found resonance in the hearts of many, including popular artists from Sony SAB shows who reflect on their experiences of Raksha Bandhan and the meaningful connections they share.

At its core, Raksha Bandhan celebrates the cherished relationships that enrich our lives and make them more meaningful. It goes beyond the mere exchange of a thread and gifts; it is a testament to the unbreakable ties that bind us to one another. This sentiment is beautifully echoed by Chinmayee Salvi, known for her role as Sakhi Wagle in Sony SAB’s "Wagle Ki Duniya."

Talking to us about the festival, Chinmayee said, “Raksha Bandhan is meant to celebrate the cherished bonds that make life more meaningful.  And I feel so fortunate to have a wonderful brother like Sheehan by my side who is not just a brother in the show but like one in real life as well. Just as Sakhi looks out for Atharva in the show, I believe I’ve formed a similar understanding and connection with Sheehan.'' 

Further, describing her bond with Sheehan, Chinmayee added, ''He is truly like my annoying little brother. It almost doesn’t feel like acting during some of our scenes because we also have such similar banter in real life. The festival beautifully mirrors the essence of our relationship both on and off the screen.”

Through Chinmayee's words, we're reminded that the festival's essence reverberates not just on the screen but in our genuine connections with our loved ones. It's these connections that add depth to life's narrative, making it all the more beautiful.
