Today, many married women across India are celebrating Karva Chauth by fasting for the long life of their husbands. However, some Bollywood actresses choose not to observe this tradition. Here are a few who skip the fast:
Ratna Pathak Shah does not fast for her husband, Naseeruddin Shah, even after many years of marriage.
Hema Malini, known as Bollywood’s “Dream Girl,” also does not participate in Karva Chauth. She believes that love is more important than fasting.
Sonam Kapoor, who married Anand Ahuja in 2018, has decided not to fast for her husband. She often shares romantic moments on social media but skips this tradition.
Twinkle Khanna, wife of Akshay Kumar, has said she does not observe the fast either. She believes that a husband’s long life isn’t affected by his wife fasting.
Kareena Kapoor Khan has also made it clear that she doesn’t fast for her husband, Saif Ali Khan. While she enjoys celebrating other festivals, she doesn’t fully understand the idea of Karva Chauth.
Finally, Deepika Padukone, who married Ranveer Singh in 2018, is not interested in fasting for Karva Chauth after six years of marriage.
These actresses show a modern take on traditions, celebrating love in their own ways.
