DIWALI 2022: Gifts must be more of emotional than monetary value, says Preeti Jhangiani

Mid Day Online caught up with the original 'chui-mui' girl for an exclusive interview on the occasion of Diwali

Hi Preeti. What are your Diwali plans? 
This Diwali, we are planning to take our kids to Goa after the Diwali puja at home as we have not travelled with them for a while due to the lockdown and covid scare

Do you believe in gifting or getting gifts during Diwali?
Both! But gifts must be more of emotional than monetary value and I strongly believe in gifting earthen and handmade gifts with minimal packaging to safeguard the environment.

Do you burst firecrackers during the festival or you believe in sound and smoke pollution free Diwali?
Definitely not . I stopped bursting crackers a long time ago and everyone should do the same. If we must , then, children can light a few phooljharis but nothing more !

What does Diwali mean to you?
Love , family, friends, getting together, sweets and playing cards!!
