This Is How Bollywood Celebrated Holi This Year…

Mumbai,

Bollywood was in no mood to celebrate Holi this year reason being the sudden death of our favourite female superstar Sridevi. Last week, subsequent to the news of Sridevi’s death, Shabana Azmi and Javed Akhtar had cancelled their annual Holi party and so did others.

‘Bura na maano holi hai’ is overused and misused. Dear men, you better behave with women this time. #HappyHoli pic.twitter.com/Dl6hS6PJAz

Meanwhile, Ayushmann Khurranna echoed the emotion of many by posting sort of warning: “‘Bura na maano Holi hai’ is overused and misused. Dear men, you better behave with women this time,” he said on Twitter.

Ranveer Singh enjoyed the Holi with the singer Pharrell Williams, the two of the most colourful people, got together to paint the town red this time. Pharrell who is in India to promote a clothing line of a leading sportswear brand, of which Ranveer too is a brand ambassador. The moment the Gully Boy star got to know of the Happy singer’s visit to India, he grabbed the opportunity to welcome him. And to say that the two had quite a blast celebrating the festival of colours together, won’t be an understatement.
