Soon
to
be
mom
and
actress
Meghana
Raj
recently
had
her
baby
shower
celebrations
in
the
loving
memory
of
her
late
husband
and
actor
Chiranjeevi
Sarja.
She
has
also
spoken
for
the
first
time
after
her
hubby’s
untimely
demise
back
in
June
this
year.
Meghana
opened
up
about
all
the
3
baby
showers
she
had
and
the
plans
she
and
Chiru
had
for
their
child
in
an
interview.
Meghana
revealed
to
TOI,
“I
didn't
want
any
celebration,
but
it
all
just
fell
into
place.
Chiru
wanted
a
grand
ceremony
and
had
even
suggested
a
venue,
while
I
preferred
it
to
be
at
home.
He
didn't
like
the
idea,
so
I
came
up
with
a
venue
suggestion.
Eventually,
I
ended
up
having
three
showers,
each
at
a
venue
we
had
discussed.
The
traditional
seemantha
was
at
home.
Dhruva
(Sarja)
arranged
a
fairy
tale
event
at
the
hotel
I'd
suggested
and
even
recreated
moments
from
our
wedding
reception.
My
friends
took
it
to
a
whole
different
level.
The
life-size
cutout
of
Chiru
was
Pannaga
Bharana's
idea.
He
placed
it
there
and
when
I
walked
in,
I
was
overcome
by
emotion.”
Meghana
was
also
quizzed
about
Chiranjeevi
and
the
time
they
spent
together
during
lockdown
before
his
death.
She
replied
by
stating,
“Something
we
are
very
grateful
to
COVID-19
for
is
the
lockdown.
The
whole
period
from
March
till
June
was
the
best
time
of
our
lives.
I
got
to
spend
every
single
minute
with
him
and
around
this
time,
we
got
the
good
news
that
we
were
expecting.”
She
went
on
to
add,
“Chiru
wanted
to
be
there
for
me
every
moment
of
the
day,
which
would
not
have
been
possible
if
he
was
working.
In
that
sense,
the
lockdown
was
a
blessing
in
disguise.
It
changed
the
family
dynamics
and
brought
us
all
closer.
Every
day
was
a
celebration
and
that
period
was
beautiful.”
