On the auspicious occasion of Dhanteras, we asked television actors what they are planning to buy and invest in this year. While many still embrace the age-old practise of buying gold and silver, there are some who make other investments, too.
Rubina Dilaik
I believe in making sound investments. It is that time of year when we invest well, and we follow this tradition every year. This year is special as Abhinav (Shukla) and I will buy gold for our daughters, Edhaa and Jeeva. We will also be making some solo investments.
Sudhanshu Pandey
It is a tradition to buy and invest in a few things every year, like gold, silver. Dhanteras is an auspicious day, and we pray that it brings us wealth and prosperity. This year, I am planning on buying some household items.
Aditya Deshmukh
We buy gold on Dhanteras every year. A few years back, I bought a car on this day. This year, we plan to buy gold bangles for my mother. This is a tradition we have been following for years now.
Pooja Banerjee
For 14 years, I have been investing specifically on this day. I either buy gold, silver, electronics or some household items. This year, I will buy earrings for my two-year-old daughter, Sana, and also invest in stocks.
Apara Mehta
Usually, we buy gold items, but we won’t be doing that this time. The reason is that I have recently done up my new house and I feel that is an investment in itself. I hope this home brings us prosperity.
Romiit Raaj
Dhanteras is the beginning of Diwali, and we always buy something on this auspicious day. This time around, we might buy gold jewellery or silver utensils. This is a ritual that my parents practised, and I have followed it over the years.
