Shilpa Shirodkar celebrates Gudi Padwa on Silsila Pyaar Ka set

Actress Shilpa Shirodkar, who essays Janki Tiwari in Silsila Pyaar Ka, celebrated Gudi Padwa and Ugadi on Friday with her co-stars on the sets of the TV show.

Shilpa, who earlier used to celebrate the festival with her family, this time decided to celebrate with her co-stars. She even brought sweets for the entire team of the show.

"When I was abroad, I used to do 'puja' in the house and make 'sakhar bhaat'. But now that I am in India, we take a stick, put a silk shawl, silver kalash, put a swastik on the kalash, and do the 'puja' with haldi, kumkum and garlands. We make saakar bhaat (sugar rice)," Shilpa said in a statement.

"It's very auspicious for us and the family. Hence, each year I buy things for our family members. And this year, it was a working Gudi Padwa for me and I did something special for my team as well," she added.

Silsila Pyaar Ka, aired on Star Plus, also stars Abhay Vakil and Chhavi Pandey among others.
