Bachchan parivaar celebrate Rakhi in NY

Bollywood’s big family- The Bachchan’s doesn’t miss out even the tiniest of festivals and Raksha Bandhan is as big and pompous for as Diwali, no wonder sister Shweta Nanda is flying all the way to New York to tie Rakhi to younger brother Abhishek Bachchan.

Bachchan’s who are preparing for their show in New York are eagerly waiting for the daughter of their family, “My daughter comes in to be with us and to see the show, but more importantly to be with her brother on Raksha Bandhan,” says Amitabh Bachchan.

Amitabh praises the wonderful festival, adding, “Such wonderful traditions we possess and what an endearing tradition Rakhi is. It has not necessarily remained genetic. Whenever there has been a strong bond and expression between opposite genders, a bond of wanting to treat the other as your own blood, it has been strengthened by the symbolic tying of the ‘rakhi’ on brother’s wrist. It has generated immense value and compassion. It is wonderful to be able to nurture such emotion and to relate to it for the rest of our lives. The emergences of ‘rakhi brothers and sisters’ have been so unique in our society. And many a times it has worked stronger than the one that has been ordained by birth. Unfortunate, but true.”

Good to see a parivaar who still gives importance to the age-old traditions.
