The
newly-wed
couple
Mayank
Gandhi
and
Hunar
Hale
are
celebrating
their
first
Holi
(post
marriage)
at
their
Gurgaon
residence.
Mayank
is
a
veteran
of
the
rowdy
Holi
tradition.
He
was
quoted
by
a
leading
daily
as
saying,
"You
get
this
chance
once
in
a
year
to
let
out
your
frustration
and
happiness.
The
frustration
comes
out
on
your
enemies,
and
happiness
is
shared
with
those
you
love.
And
koi
bhi
bura
nahin
maanta
kyunki
Holi
hai.
I
grew
up
in
Kanpur,
and
you
know
how
crazy
Holi
can
get
there.
I
have
even
played
keechad-wali
Holi,
with
grease,
raw
eggs
and
what
not.
But
of
course,
ab
toh
sober
ho
gaye
hain."
On
the
other
hand,
Hunar
had
played
Holi
only
on-screen.
She
says
that
she
was
scared
of
colours
and
as
a
kid
she
used
to
lock
herself
in
a
room,
and
not
come
out
till
evening.
She
adds,
"But
after
having
played
it
for
the
screen,
I
have
become
used
to
the
colours.
Par
real
life
mein
achhe
se
nahin
kheli
hai
Holi."
Apparently,
Hunar
was
warned
by
her
in-laws
as
he
has
a
reputation
of
playing
rowdy
Holi.
Mayank
was
quick
to
say,
"It's
our
first
Holi
after
the
wedding,
and
like
she
said,
she
has
never
played
before,
so
I
have
to
show
her
how
fun
the
festival
is."
But,
Mayank
says
that
he
has
toned
down
his
Holi
antics.
He
prefers
an
eco-friendly
celebration.
Hunar
further
added
that
it
is
not
their
first
Holi
as
they
played
it
before
with
a
birthday
cake!
She
was
quoted
by
the
leading
daily
as
saying,
"On
his
birthday,
in
October,
as
he
cut
the
cake,
I
put
some
of
it
on
his
face.
Immediately,
he
picked
the
entire
cake
and
smeared
it
all
over
me.
This
was
a
day
before
Diwali.
So,
hamari
pehli
Holi
toh
tab
hi
ho
gayi
thi."
Going
by
the
pictures
(collage),
it
looks
like
the
actors
had
fun
playing
Holi
with
family!
