After having impressed everyone with her acting prowess in shows like ‘Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi’, ‘Kahaani Ghar Ghar Kii’, ‘Kasautii Zindagii Kay’, ‘Bade Achhe Lagte Hain 2’, the extremely versatile Shubhaavi Choksey has definitely car ved a niche for herslf in the telly land. She is in an exclusive conversation with OTTplay on the auspicious occasion of ‘Akshaya Tritiya’.

What does ‘Akshaya Tritiya’ mean to you?
‘Akshay Tritiya’ was introduced to me by my mother. She was the one who always used to tell my father that please take me to buy something on the occasion of ‘Akshaya Tritiya’. Let me tell you that, ‘Akshaya Tritiya’ and ‘Dhanteras’ are the two festivals when she used to buy something. This year, I didn’t actually think about buying something, but it is great that this interview has come to me as a reminder to buy something. Now, I am going to go and defintely buy something. There are a few friends of mine who have kids and I’ve been wanting to gift them something and what better day than this. So I think I’ll do that today.

How are you planning to celebrate ‘Akshaya Tritiya’ this year?
The general concept/ tradition of ‘Akshaya Tritiya’ states that you need to buy gold on that day, as it’s considered extremely auspicious.

Do you buy gold in big quantity or just for namesake as in, to participate in the traditional custom? Also, Can you name the three people in your life whom you consider ‘GOLD’
What is quantity? I am not that kind of a person, to show off. So, I buy something that I like. Iam not here to buy gold to show it off to someone that how much I have and how much I’ve purchased. So, I always buy something that I like.

Who do you consider as ‘gold’ in your life?
Its my mother, father, my brother and my amazing husband and my child.

‘Akshay Tritiya’ almost coincides with the auspicious festival of Eid. What are your plans for your tummy? Are you going to have your tummy have its way through ‘Akshay Trithiya’s sweets as well as Eid’s Sheer kurma and other delicacies? Or are you planning to eat everything in moderation as looking good and looking fit is the call of your profession?
Most of the time, I celebrate Eid with one of my close friends Zuzo and his family. I love to celebrate my each and every occasion in India. Talking about the plans for my tummy, I want to have the malpua... somnething that I haven’t had it the entire month.
