MUMBAI: One of India’s most popular festivals- Janmashtami- is celebrated through the years with immense zest and fervour, to commemorate the birth of Lord Krishna- the eighth avatar of Lord Vishnu. The legend of this festival basically revolves around the birth of Lord Krishna with the purpose of getting the world rid of evil sources.
Just like last year, Hrithik Roshan will celebrate Lord Krishna’s birthday this year too. Remember the honey-eyed actor breaking the dahi handi in his 2012 hit film Agneepath? It is learnt that Krrish 3 star will attend the Dahi Handi celebrations in Ghatkopar and we won’t be surprised if he tries to break the makti. After all, he is India’s most loved superhero, no? Besides Hrithik, other B-town celebrations are also gearing up to celebrate this festival. D-Day actor Arjun Rampal will grace Congress leader Sanjay Nirupam’s Dahi Handi function which will be dedicated to the safety of women. Going by his athletic body, wethinks he can certainly break the makti but the question is – will he? We hope so! Actors Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Ravi Kishen are also expected to attend the grand event. Bappi Lahiri will be seen crooning at the event.
Also, a lot of Bollywood celebs will be seen at MLA Krishna Hegde’s dahi handi celebrations in Vile Parle. Sanjay Dutt’s sister Priya Dutt, Chennai Express director Rohit Shetty, Madhur Bahndarkar, Vipul Shah, Vindoo Dara Singh, Shreyas Talpade and Dolly Bindra will make their presence felt at this one.
While Shahrukh Khan will get the crowd roaring at Sachin Ahir’s Dahi Handi party in Worli, Mumbai, many politicians and celebs including Aditya Roy Kapur, Sidharth Malhotra, Esha Deol along with sister Ahana Deol, singer Usha Uthup and Benny Dayal will be present at the venue. With King Khan riding high on the success of his film Chennai Express, he may just attempt to break the makti for his fans. Wethinks, that’s the best way to thank his fans for all the love, right? Not to forget, stand-up comedian Kapil Sharma will entertain the crowd with his performance. While some Bollwyood bigwigs will celebrate this auspicious day with aam jaanta, others have been wishing their fans on Twitter…
