Puja Agarwal turned a year older, smarter and beautiful on 14th March. The actor spent her special day with her loved ones.
“This year on my birthday I wanted to meet all my close friends and spend quality time with my family. So I did a bring in with my close friends at a lounge in Versova and celebrated with my family on the birthday. This was the best birthday considering the current pandemic situation and the lockdown,” says the actor, who has done short films such as Mirror, Happy Anniversary and Fear Of God.
Rohit Gupta, Deepak Kalra, Madhur Sharma, Shibani Kashyap, Sidharth Banerjee, Kapil Madnani, Dr Priyanka Aher, Samrat Sarkar and Deepika Singh were among her closest friends who wished Puja.
“For me, a birthday celebration is either a trip to the mountains or throwing a get-together party in Mumbai. This time I preferred the latter. Every birthday has a memory, but this one was special as I celebrated it with my friends after about two years because of Covid related lockdown and restrictions,” she adds.
The actor gets emotional sharing something that happened this birthday. “My brother is the first one to wish me every year at 12 pm. But this year, he was busy with an event and forgot to wish me. When his friends reminded him of it, I heard he cried that he couldn’t wish for me, it made me emotional. His support and love is the biggest gift I could ask for,” she says.
Puja’s friends have pampered her with love and gifts this year. “The most special one was from my closest pal Priyanka. She gave me the one thing I was searching for the most, a special gold chain. Actually, I had bought a cute gold chain pendant back from my Europe trip that I used to wear. It was very unlike of me because I never wore any jewellery till I got that one. One fine day I had lost it and it’s been two years since I have been searching for a similar pendant. And, Priyanka knew about it and she gifted a similar one to me this time,” she sounds happy.
The actor did not buy anything for herself but she has her own way of pampering. “I have a to-buy list, which I manifest for. Also, every month I give myself a gift as self-appreciation. But this birthday I chose to donate food to street dogs and gave away clothes to the needy,” she adds.
