New Delhi: The holy festival of brother and sister Raksha Bandhan was celebrated across the country today on 19 August. Stars of Bollywood and TV industry shared pictures of Raksha Bandhan celebrations and also shared beautiful memories related to the festival. Ankit, who plays the role of Ranvijay in the TV show ‘Mati Se Bandhi Dor’, said, “This year I am shooting on the occasion of Raksha Bandhan and if I get a day off or I pack up early, I will celebrate it with my brother, because I do not have a sister and over the years the relationship with my brother has become even more special and strong. Being the youngest, I have always received love. One of my sweetest memories of Raksha Bandhan is when my cousins used to tie rakhis with watches, I loved them very much.”
Rutaja gives her sister a gift of her choice
Rutuja, who plays Vaiju in ‘Mati Se Bandhi Dor’, said that this year she is shooting for the festival. Rutuja said, “I don’t have a brother but I have a sister who ties me a rakhi every year. If she gets a day off from work, she comes to the set and celebrates it there. Every year I celebrate Raksha Bandhan with my sister and cousins. I love tying sandalwood rakhis and I always gift my sister a gift of her choice. The happiness on her face is something I look forward to and am very happy with. Though being my younger sister, she shows some aspects that make her feel grown up and I being the elder one take care of her like a mother. It is a very special bond that we both share and it makes memories for a lifetime.”

If we get a day off then I will definitely celebrate it with my cousins because I don’t have a real sister. I just have a real brother. This year Raksha Bandhan is going to be even more special. I will surprise one of my cousins with a jersey which she wanted for a long time and I will finally gift her because she is a football player. It is all these little joys that we live for and celebrate these moments.”

Like every year, I will celebrate this festival with my brother and with each passing year, my bond with him is growing stronger. We are like Tom and Jerry. Even if we fight, we can’t stay away from each other. With every new day we learn something new from each other and I am so happy to have a brother like him in my life. These are memories that I will always cherish.”
