Filled with love and peace, Eid-ul-Fitr is a festival of breaking the fast that concludes the holy month of Ramadan! Sadly, with the Covid-19 lockdown still in force, traditional gatherings, festivities and fanfare had to take a backseat. Eid 2020 was indeed a solemn affair! No extravagant iftar parties!
The scene of excited public thronging the gates of Mannat, waiting for Shah Rukh Khan’s iconic arrival and waving was sorely missed this Eid.
And speaking of Eid, one can’t not talk about our Bhai whose epic film releases are synonymous with the Eid Extravaganza!
While ‘Radhe – Your Most Wanted Bhai’ has got postponed because of the Unwanted Corona Virus, Salman Khan will still be giving Eidi to fans in the form of a special new song. Moreover, he has also launched FRSH – a grooming and personal care brand on this auspicious occasion. Right now, it’s selling sanitizers- the need of the hour.
In these uncertain times, Bollywood celebs like Sara Ali Khan, Kartik Aryan, Sonam Kapoor, Randeep Hooda and Amitabh Bachchan have taken to social media to pour their love, well wishes and connect with faith!
A Blast from the Past, Sara Ali Khan’s Now and Then pic gives us major Throwback Feels!
Amitabh Bachchan was his grand old self as he wished everyone on Instagram, “Eid Mubarak to all and the prayers on this auspicious day for peace .. for harmony .. for good health .. for friendship and love .. for ever .. bring us together in peace and love and in the continuity of brotherhood sisterhood and family .. be ONE .. be in ONE ..”
Resplendent and Elegant Divas like Sonam K Ahuja, Kriti Sanon, Jacqueline Fernandez and Nora Fatehi were all decked out in exquisite ethnic attire and left the fans mesmerized!
Exuding a regal aura, Randeep Hooda wished everyone Eid Mubarak but was all about Safety First!
Sharing a video of offering Namaz, Shraddha Kapoor made for a picture of devout faith!
On the other hand, Saif Ali Khan activated his Master Chef mode and left the ladies impressed and licking their fingers with his special mutton biryani. Kareena Kapoor Khan took to Instagram to share Karisma Kapoor’s pic about the delicious delicacy!
Meanwhile, the Nostalgia Notes were strong with Twinkle Khanna who missed her Nani’s khichda!
On a more filmi front, Salman Khan’s ‘Radhe’ and Akshay Kumar’s ‘Laxmmi Bomb’ which were feared to clash at the box office this Eid, obviously got impacted because of the global pandemic. While Laxxmi Bomb is soon to release on Disney+ Hotstar , ‘Radhe’ will still remain a theatrical release.
