Actress Rupali Ganguly currently seen in 'Anupamaa' is a huge Lord Krishna devotee. She joined mid-day.com's Janmashtami celebrations as she recalled fond memories from growing up years.

Rupali reminisced, "I was born and brought up in Prabhadevi, where we had dahi handis in every nook and corner. The Govindas would come and break them. I would start preparing my 'jhanki' for Lord Krishna a day before the festival, I was obsessed with Krishna. I used carboard boxes and would stick pictures of Devki maiyya and Lord Krishna everywhere. Everything was DIY! I used to take a holiday on Janmashtami because if you notice, our culture and traditions are preserved and celebrated in middle class areas. I'm not being biased towards anybody but for example I live in Versova now and I never see such celebrations there. Even If there is a dahi handi, it's not like how it was in Worli, in every galli. Some mothers would get together and take all us kids to BDD chawl to watch the dahi handi celebrations. These mothers would put in so much effort so that kids are connected to their culture and traditions."
