Diwali is celebrated only when the whole family is together. This is the reason why people try to reach their homes on the day of the festival. Tahira Kashyap, director of the film Sharmaji Ki Beti and wife of actor Ayushman Khurana, says, ‘Diwali is celebrated in our hometown Chandigarh. There is a rule on every Diwali that no matter where anyone is shooting, everyone has to reach home in Chandigarh on Diwali. Diwali will be celebrated with the family there. During this time, the weather in Chandigarh is also good. It is slightly cold, sometimes one has to cover oneself with a shawl, and we also light a brazier. There is no restriction on eating food and sweets.’ Explaining the way to fill others’ Diwali with sweetness, Tahira says, ‘When someone asks how are you, listen to their answer too. I listen and if they need any help, I do that.’
