As the wait for Eid ka Chaand fills the air with excitement, the festive buzz is in full swing! Those who observed Ramadan are busy with last-minute preparations—shopping for new clothes, planning feasts, and making sure everything is perfect for the big day. The joy of Eid is truly unmatched!
Amidst all the celebrations, actor Zohaib Siddiqui, who plays Keshav in Shemaroo Umang’s show Main Dil Tum Dhadkan, shares how he spent the holy month of Ramadan and what he’s looking forward to the most this Eid.
Reflecting on the festival, he shares: “Eid, for me, is more than just a festival—it’s a feeling. A feeling of fulfillment, gratitude, and togetherness. After a month of fasting, prayer, and self-reflection, Eid feels like a well-earned reward— a day filled with love, laughter, and, of course, amazing food!”
Zohaib says this year was even more special as I observed Ramadan with my Main Dil Tum Dhadkan family. Every Iftar turned into a warm, heartfelt gathering, with everyone bringing something special to share—it truly felt like a home away from home.
Ramadan teaches us discipline, empathy, and inner strength, and Eid is the perfect celebration of everything we’ve embraced along the way. It’s a time to count our blessings, spread kindness, and give back to those in need.
He says further, “I have been keeping roza since I was eight years old, and I still remember the excitement of waiting for Eid. Waking up to the delicious aroma of my mother’s sheer khurma, dressing up in new clothes, heading to the mosque with my family, and spending the day celebrating with loved ones—those memories are priceless.”
Zohaib says even today, that first spoonful of my mom’s sheer khurma brings back all the warmth and joy of childhood. This year, I plan to share that joy with my Main Dil Tum Dhadkan family by bringing them a taste of those cherished traditions—a small gesture to celebrate the bonds we’ve built.
As Eid brings new memories and heartfelt traditions, Zohaib is all set to share the love and joy with his on-screen family too. Don’t forget to catch him as Keshav in Main Dil Tum Dhadkan, every Monday to Saturday at 8:30 PM, only on Shemaroo Umang!
