Two charming actresses from the field of television namely Pariva Pranati and Mitali Nag are celebrating their birthdays today (18 March). While Pariva was last seen in Star Plus’ Ek Doosre Se Karte Hain Pyaar Hum, Mitali last acted in Sony Entertainment Television’s Khoobsurat. Before asking them about their birthday plans, we wish both these beautiful ladies a very happy birthday. Now let’s talk to them. Says Pariva, “I am celebrating my first birthday after I got married to Puneet (Sachdev). So excited is Puneet that he is trying his best to make this day special for me. Last night I brought in my birthday with my family and followed it up with a small cake cutting ceremony. Today, Puneet is planning something; mostly we shall celebrate with a few close friends.” “Talking about gifts, I am not the one to crave for gifts but then too Puneet bought for me my favourite perfume Hugo Boss,” she quips. How do you feel on getting a year older today? “Well, age is just a number. It doesn’t really matter to me. According to me, birthdays are very special and should be celebrated,” Pariva answers. Shares Mitali, “Well, since the last for days I am at a hospital looking after my aunt. And in this frame of mind, it escaped my thought that today’s my birthday. But some of my friends sprang a surprise when they came to wish me. Last night they brought cakes and flowers for me; this was really gracious on their part.” “Today I have no plans as such but will surely celebrate my birthday in the coming week. But my mother has made this day more special. She has gifted me an electronic tabla which will help me in my music classes.Many a thanks to my fans, my birthdays are very special. Initially I used to spend my birthday with my family and now my fans make it very endearing when they make it a point to make this day very special and shower all their love on me,” the actress observes. How do you feel on getting a year older? “Growing old doesn’t really matter. It is all in your mind. I believe birthday is your day so go and have fun,” she adds. We totally agree with you Mitali! Hope both of you birthday girls have a great day and life ahead!!!
