The festival signifies the commencement of the harvest season and the maturation of winter crops. Additionally, Lohri celebrates the onset of milder winters, as following the festival, the days grow longer and the nights become shorter.

AMAN GANDHI ON LOHRI CELEBRATION

Talking about the same, the talented actor stated, "Lohri is that one festival which is celebrated on a grand scale in Delhi. Before moving to Mumbai, I visited my grandparents and my family every year to seek their blessing and light up the Lohri bonfire. All my cousins and extended family used to come there, and we would feast on the delicious Punjabi cuisine that our moms used to make."

He added, "Lohri marks a new beginning for us, and I hope it brings a lot of positivity and happiness to everyone's life. And this year since I will be shooting for Bhagya Lakshmi, I won't be able to visit my parents in Delhi. But I hope everyone gets to celebrate this festival with their loved ones, a very happy Lohri to one and all."

Here's wishing everyone a Happy Lohri!
