After a season of cold, Lohri is the day that marks the beginning of longer days as the sun starts moving towards the northern hemisphere. Celebrated primarily across the Punjab region, Lohri shares its celebration with a number of other Indian festivals such as Pongal, Bihu, and Makar Sankranti, that fall around the same time. As India welcomes the season of warmth, Lohri is being marked across communities. From film stars to sports personalities politicians, celebrities took to social media and sent wishes of the day.
While Union Minister and BJP leader Smriti Irani wished us a 'bountiful of happiness' on the special day, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee conveyed her wishes of peace, prosperity, and happiness on Twitter. Both Master Blaster Sachin Tendulkar and former cricketer Virender Sehwag kept up with the spirit of the day and wished fans.
Bollywood is never behind in keeping up with the festivity. From Amitabh Bachchan, Akshay Kumar and Anupam Kher to Juhi Chawla, Emraan Hashmi and more, everyone is showering good wishes on their fans.
