Exclusive: Rupali Ganguly on celebrating Ganpati on the sets of Anupamaa, ‘We feel like we are shooting in a pandal’ – Times of India

Ganesh Chaturthi is going to be celebrated tomorrow (August 31) and celebrities are in full festive mode. Rupali Ganguly exclusively told ETimes TV about how she is going to celebrate it this year on the sets of Anupamaa.

She shared, “In DKP, all festivals are celebrated with full gusto. Be it Independence Day or any other festivals all are celebrated in full enthusiasm. Coincidentally, we shot Janmashtami on that day, we shot Holi on the day of Holi, we shot Diwali on the festival day, so we get to celebrate and shoot on exact muhurat. We are going to celebrate Ganpati on the sets of Anupamaa for 3 consecutive years. On every set of DKP, Ganpati is celebrated. In the first year in 2020, Ganpati was brought for one and half days. That time, I had said to celebrate Ganpati for 10 days. I don’t know if Rajan ji heard me, or he thought of himself, next year we had Ganpati for 10 days. For us, we feel like we are shooting in a pandal. We do aarti, we distribute bhog and Prasad, we sing arati. It has such a festive atmosphere and vibe. There’s a lot of happiness and a sense of camaraderie between everybody. We are all Anupamaa waale. This year too, we will celebrate in full festive spirit. Even the dogs on the set take part in the procession.”

Rupali, who plays the protagonist in the show added, “I bring Ganpati in my home and I also celebrate on the sets. The set is more home to me as I spend more time here. This is my home. I take leave, do puja at home and come to sets as well. Mere dono ghar me Ganpati arahe hai. Thanks to the production house for keeping the spirit alive and we don’t feel like we are missing anything.”

According to the current track, Kinjal gives birth to a baby girl and the entire family is in celebratory mood.
