Is it even Holi if there are no gujiyas? So, when Jubilee actor
Nandish Sandhu went to try gujiyas in a Delhi market with us, he told us everything about his ‘sweet obsession’ with mithai, his love for homemade gujiya and his Holi plans.
‘MUJHE MITHAI KHANE SE ROKNA MUSHKIL HAI’“Main hamesha ghar ki bani gujiya khaata hoon. Hamesha mummy banati thi ghar pe but now that I am in Mumbai and my family is not here, toh friends ke ghar se gujiya aa jati hai. Despite my workout routine, I eat gujiyas on Holi,” says Nandish and points out, “Mujhe sweet shop mein jaane se darr lagta hai because I have a sweet tooth aur ek baar main chala jaun toh mujhe mithai khane se rokna mushkil hai! I overdo it.”
‘NO FIXED PLAN FOR HOLI YET’Nandish adds that does not have any Holi routine, but he makes sure to take care of his skin. “If I go out to play, then sunscreen, oil and a water bottle is a must for me. I might not go to any party this year. I might go to someone’s home or call friends to mine, and probably watch something together,” says the Super 30 actor.
Bachpan mein, sab saath jaate thay, Maruti 800 mein, logon ke ghar Holi khelne’Remembering how he used to celebrate Holi with friends and family in his hometown – Dholpur, Rajasthan – Nandish shares, “Ek bada sa tank hota tha, usmein rang dalke sabko usi mein phaenkte thay. Maruti 800 ya jeep mein sab ek saath baithkar jaate thay logon ke ghar Holi khelne. These are very special memories for me. The last Holi I remember celebrating was with my younger brother in 2022. He is no more, but he was happy that day so when I talk about Holi, that memory always comes to my mind.”
