As a child, actor Sana Khan would make her mother buy her a new purse matching her dress, every year for Eid. She would use it to keep all her Eidis (money or gifts received as blessings from elders on Eid). \u201cMy cousins and I would get ready by 10 in the morning, so that we could visit our neighbours and relatives. After all, as children, Eidi was the most important thing for us, followed by good food,\u201d says Sana.<\/p>\n
She adds that most of her Eid plans used to be with her best friend (Nazia Merchant). \u201cDuring Eid, we would also visit each other\u2019s houses, so that we could collect extra money. After we had [collected] enough [money], both of us would take the train or an auto rickshaw to visit Shah Rukh Khan\u2019s house and pakao the watchman to another level with questions such as \u2018Is SRK home? Can we please meet him?\u2019 etc. He was really sweet to speak to us and used to give us autographed photos of SRK. Since I was the fan, I would also make Nazia take whatever he would give her, so that I could add them to my collection. Now, when I think of those days I feel embarrassed, more so since I am a part of the same industry,\u201d she says, laughing.<\/p>\n
Like every year, this year too, Sana has special plans for Eid. The celebration will continue for two days. Today, her close friends, who are not from the industry, would come to her house. \u201cWe will serve them sheer khurma and biryani made by my mother (Saeeda Khan). And, like every time I have put a fresh coat of paint to my house and have also decorated it. My friends love the way I deck it up,\u201d says the actor, who has also been a part of the TV show Bigg Boss.<\/p>\n
Tomorrow is reserved for family, as Sana\u2019s close relatives and Nazia would be coming over and her mother would rustle up delicacies. \u201cMy mother makes the best Paya Soup in the world,\u201d says the actor, who has gifted her mother two new dresses for Eid. \u201cI also plan to give her a Sana-style facial at home,\u201d she quips.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
