Actress
Shiny Doshi
, who currently plays the lead in
Pandya Store
, shares how she is a spiritual person and
Shivratri is a special day for her.
Shiny says, "When we were younger, my mother used to prepare a lot of faral food like sabudana khichdi and puris and we were told about the Shivratri fast. As we grew up, I understood the importance of Shivratri and how it is celebrated because Lord Shiv and Goddess Parvati got married on Shivratri. I also understood the importance of keeping awake during the night and meditating on Shivratri."
Talking about Shivratri celebrations, Shiny, who is currently in Coimbatore, says, "I feel it is important to connect with yourself. I have been spiritual since childhood and have learnt that whether you are in a happy or sad state of mind, it is important to be at peace. I have learnt that one should practise gratitude. Shivratri is the perfect occasion to celebrate my spirituality and get to know myself better."
On the professional front, Shiny is happy that she is essaying a character that has different layers. She says, "I feel Dhara is a mature woman and at the same time, romantic, sacrificing and giving. It is 14 hours of shooting everyday and not easy to strike a work-life balance, but I manage to.do it." Shiny has been part of many
TV
shows like Saraswatichandra, Srimad Bhagwat Mahapuran and
Sarojini
. She says, "I enjoy doing different roles and being part of TV shows that are strong in content."
