One doesn’t need to fast to prove their love towards their partner: Kundali Bhagya fame Ruhi Chaturvedi

Karwa Chauth is one of the most important days for all the married couples. The woman keep fast for their husbands and break the fast after seeing the moon. The tradition has high respects and is celebrated with immense enthusiasm. The best part of the festival is that the women take extra efforts in dressing up mostly in red-outfits to celebrate the occasion.

India Forums got in touch with Ruhi Chaturvedi who plays the role of Sherlyn in Zee TV’s Kundali Bhagya and asked her about her thoughts on the festival. She said, “I honestly feel that one doesn’t need to fast to prove their love towards their partner. Since it is a tradition, we should follow it, but we should never feel that we need to fast just to keep our relationship strong. You should do what you feel is right! Having said that, I do keep a fast for my husband. In fact, last year was my first Karwa Chauth and everything was very memorable and new for me. I was shooting the whole day for Kundali Bhagya and once I returned home, Shiv and I ate together as he was also fasting for the whole day for me”.

She added, “We celebrated Karwa Chauth in a very simple manner, we just went to my mother’s house and broke the fast with our family members. This year we plan to celebrate it in the same way. I must also salute all the ladies who have been fasting for their partners for all these years because honestly, it is really difficult, especially when you are working outdoors in the heat for so many hours”.

Here's wishing happy Karwa Chauth to everyone!
