A Festive tale

Hiba Nawab, now an household name as Elaichi, is busy with her schedules. Festivals are a part of the set for her.

 But nostalgia is something that helps her keep going even when she is busy shooting and does not have much time to celebrate festivals with friends and family. She started her career at an early age when she became a part of Ssshhh…Phir Koi Hai and Saat Phere: Saloni ka safar.

On the occasion of Id, when people  across the breadth of the nation celebrate,  the JijajiChhatPer Hain fame shares her memories and favourites from the festival.

Her favourite dish
The Carzy Stupid Ishq My favourite dish is absolutely Haleem Biryani, during Eid. Also, aloo and channachaat is something that I drool over. Basically, everything that my mom cooks is my favourite and the specialty of Id for me.

Cooking herself
I enjoy cooking rice pudding for myself and I think I’m pretty good at it. I also love feeding my closed ones with it, hoping they love it as much as I do.

Celebrating Eid
I usually celebrate Id with my family and friends and my mom cooks a lot of different kinds of dishes. So, it’s all about eating a lot after fasting for 30 days straight and of course followed by Ibaadad to thank God for everything!

Fondest memory
It is always going to be my Nani giving us Eidi and how as kids, we used to compare and compete amongst each other over our Eidis. That was one of the best times growing up.

Message for your viewers
I would like to wish all my fans a Happy Id. Enjoy all the delicacies and no need to diet. Just follow the Eat and Greet mantra and I’m sure you all will enjoy the festival to it’s fullest!
