Christmas
2023:
With
just
days
away
from
Christmas,
the
world
prepares
for
one
of
the
most
loved
and
celebrated
holidays
around
the
globe.
Actress
Sumati
Singh,
currently
seen
on
Kismat
Ki
Lakiro
Se,
opens
up
on
her
Christmas
plans
and
how
she
and
her
friends
together
make
it
a
special
occasion.
Sumati
shares
some
of
the
traditions
she
carries
out
with
her
friends,
"I
decorate
the
Christmas
tree
in
my
house
and
with
my
close
Catholic
friends,
and
we
frequently
visit
each
other
for
lunches
and
dinners.
We
collaborate
to
decorate
their
tree,
and
then
everyone
gathers
at
my
place
for
further
decorations.
While
there
aren't
specific
rituals,
we
ensure
to
assist
anyone
celebrating
Christmas
in
our
friend
circle
with
decorating
and
preparing
food."
Despite
busy
schedules,
she
and
her
friends
ensure
to
celebrate
Christmas
every
year,
she
says,
"On
holidays,
we
adorn
our
rooms
with
festive
decorations
like
Santa
and
Merry
Christmas
decor.
We
exchange
wishes
regularly,
and
every
other
day,
someone
brings
food,
creating
moments
of
joy
amid
our
busy
schedules.
Without
fail,
we
ensure
to
celebrate
yearly,
and
I
make
it
a
point
to
visit
one
of
my
best
friends'
houses.
I'm
always
graciously
invited,
and
I'm
treated
as
a
part
of
their
family.
On
the
night
of
the
24th,
we
gather
for
a
splendid
celebration.
Her
dad,
with
an
impressive
collection
of
wines
from
around
the
world,
adds
a
unique
touch
to
the
festivities."
The
actress
also
reflects
on
a
special
Christmas
memory
years
ago,
"My
best
Christmas
memory
dates
back
to
2015
when
I
was
in
Lonavala
with
my
best
friends.
The
weather
was
delightful,
and
we
attended
a
church
service.
Following
prayers,
there
was
a
beautiful
ritual
where
everyone
exchanged
gifts
and
enjoyed
dancing
together."
Sumati
also
hosted
a
themed
Christmas
party
last
year
at
her
home.
"Last
year,
I
hosted
a
party
at
my
home,
conveniently
close
to
my
set,
making
it
the
preferred
gathering
spot
for
everyone.
The
theme
was
fairy
tales
for
the
girls,
while
the
boys
had
the
freedom
to
choose
whatever
theme
they
desired."
As
Christmas
brings
another
opportunity
to
enjoy
delicacies,
she
shares
her
favourite,
"The
brownies
which
are
homemade
are
what
I
look
forward
to.
There
are
many
different
kinds
of
brownies
out
there
and
I
love
to
have
them"
There
is
one
Christmas
movie
which
stands
out
for
Sumati
and
she
shares
it
with
us,
"The
Holiday'
is
a
movie
that
holds
a
special
place
in
my
heart.
The
portrayal
of
two
distinct
characters
by
different
actors
captivates
me.
While
I
enjoy
watching
various
Christmas
movies,
'The
Holiday'
is
particularly
sentimental
for
me.
I've
cherished
it
since
my
childhood,
making
it
a
timeless
favorite."
Sumati
Singh
wishes
all
readers
a
Merry
Christmas!
