On Sunday night, Prateeksha, the Bachchan family's Mumbai home, witnessed the celebration of this year's Holika Dahan with the entire family in tow. Abhishek Bachchan and Navya Naveli Nanda shared glimpses of their celebrations on Instagram. Amitabh Bachchan took to his blog to share old photos from when he celebrated the festival with his family.
On his blog, Bachchan Sr. shared pictures from film sets which showed him playing Holi. The vintage black and white photos of Holi showed a young Amitabh and Jaya Bachchan with their children smeared with colours. Bachchan Sr. also posted a photo of Abhishek from Holika Dahan on Sunday night. He also posted several photos of himself as he met fans on Sunday.
Amitabh captioned the post, "Then .. and now. Greetings and wishes for Holi .. the happiness and the joy of everlasting colours of fulfilment and gaiety and merriment ..have lost count of the number of Holi celebrations at Prateeksha ..God has been kind...and the kindness of the well-wishers, galore...My individual gratitude to all...and most importantly their love...may each coloured celebration be eternal in your lives and filled with happiness and just...happiness."
Navya shared photos on her Instagram. She posed in front of the Holika Dahan fire (bonfire) in the first photo. She was seen in a white suit. The next picture showed Abhishek sitting in front of the bonfire. Navya also gave a glimpse of the gulaal (colours) kept in jars. A photo showed Navya and Abhishek applying teeka (mark) on each other's forehead. Aishwarya Rai, in a black outfit, was seen standing near them with a teeka on her forehead, alongside sindoor (vermillion).
While Navya captioned her post in Hindi, "Holi Dahan", Abhishek posted a few pictures and a video of the bonfire and wrote, "May the Holika burn all evil away. Happy Holi!"
