Christmas
2020
is
here,
and
our
Bollywood
brigade
is
ringing
in
the
auspicious
day
with
joy
and
enthusiasm.
From
dropping
wishes
on
social
media
to
catching
with
their
loved
ones,
the
X'mas
vibes
has
taken
away
some
of
the
drabness
from
this
COVID-hit
year.
Amid
this,
Filmibeat
caught
up
with
actor
Abhimanyu
Dassani
for
a
exclusive
tête-à-tête.
"I
have
just
landed
in
Mumbai.
I
am
going
to
surprise
my
parents
and
family
at
home.
They
have
no
clue
that
I
am
coming
back
today,"
the
actor
spilled
the
beans
about
his
Christmas
plans.
Since
the
last
few
weeks,
the
actor
was
stationed
in
Madurai
shooting
for
his
upcoming
Netflix
film
Meenakshi
Sundareshwar
alongside
Sanya
Malhotra.
"It
was
fantastic.
The
food
there
is
outstanding.
The
people
have
been
so
warm.
It
was
an
amazing
experience.
The
weather
was
good," Abhimanyu
told
Filmibeat.
He
further
continued,
"It
was
great
to
be
back
on
the
sets.
What
was
different
this
time
was
that
everyone
was
wearing
masks.
It
took
me
three
four
days
to
recognize
people
since
you
can't
see
their
faces
and
understand
what
they
are
expressing.
That
was
the
only
thing
which
was
different.
Everybody
was
feeling
hotter
than
usual
because
of
the
PPE
kits.
But,
the
enthusiasm
was
there
more
than
ever.
The
excitement
and
the
passion
for
creating
what
they
believe
in
was
there."
On
being
asked
what
he
wants
Secret
Santa
to
fulfill
for
him
this
year,
the
Mard
Ko
Dard
Nahin
Hota
Hai
actor
quipped,
"That's
an
interesting
one.
Just
good
going
as
it
is.
It's
nice.
The
world
needs
a
little
more
love.
Speaking
about
his
biggest
takeway
from
the
year
2020
which
turned
out
to
be
a
tough
cookie
for
everyone,
Abhimanyu
said,
"The
biggest
takeway
for
me
is
to
go
the
illusion
of
control.
You
need
to
stop
assuming
that
you
can
control
your
life.
Everyone's
plans
have
not
gone
according
to
what
they
had
planned.
So,
we
should
go
with
the
flow.
We
should
stop
trying
to
tick
mark
boxes
in
our
lives,
and
create
images
about
how
our
lives
is
supposed
to
be.
Instead,
we
should
live
how
we
actually
are.
You
should
look
at
things
with
curiosity
rather
than
expectations.
Spending
time
with
my
family
has
made
me
a
stronger
person."
Further,
on
being
quizzed
about
his
New
Year
Resolutions
for
2021,
the
actor
said,
"I
don't
keep
New
Year
resolutions.
I
am
not
that
guy.
Instead,
I
work
on
it
every
single
day.
I
don't
wait
for
a
day
to
tell
me
that
I
need
to
start
doing
some
thing."
Abhimanyu
who
has
two
movies
lined
up
next,
Sabbir
Khan's
Nikamma
and
Umesh
Shukla's
Aankh
Micholi,
is
looking
forward
to
both
the
releases
in
the
upcoming
year.
