Actress Vaidehi Nair who is presently seen in Star Plus’ Do Dooni Pyaar has mixed feelings as she sets herself busy decorating her house for Diwali!! Diwali is always the time for family bonding and the right time to nurture bonds that are special. For Vaidehi, she will miss her father’s presence this year during Diwali. Vaidehi’s father, Lt. Col. Sreejit Nair, who is in the Indian Army, is busy with his work and will not be in Mumbai for Diwali.
Says Vaidehi, “Diwali is usually the time when families unite and are together. My father and I share a very close bond; he is virtually around me, every day, advising me over phone calls. However, his presence will be missed during Diwali. He is presently busy with his commitments and duty towards the Nation. This does make us sad, but I understand the seriousness of being an army person’s daughter as I grow up.”
Talking more about her father, she says, “He calls me without fail, every morning and makes an effort to know that I have reached the set safely. I have been travelling alone for work recently after my mother had a fracture in her ankle. I feel happy and blessed that my father is around me virtually.”
On her plans for Diwali, she says, “There is nothing much. I will be shooting for my show. I will go to the mandir where we will distribute sweets.”
Happy Diwali to all!!
