Neeharika says, “Janmashtami has always been a special day for me, but since stepping into the role of Radha in Pyar Ka Pehla Naam Radha Mohan, it has taken on even greater significance. Through Radha’s journey of love and devotion for Lord Krishna, I have come to deeply connect with the essence of this divine relationship. Portraying Radha has allowed me to experience the pure, unconditional love she has for Lord Krishna.”

“This day has truly become one of the most important festivals for me, as it symbolizes not just a celebration, but a journey of love, faith, and devotion. Like every year, this year too, I plan to celebrate Lord Krishna’s birthday at midnight, and I am excited to make some special delicacies with my mom. It’s our way of honouring the love and joy that Lord Krishna brings into our lives,” she talks on the celebration of the special day.
