As the joyous occasion of Bhai Dooj approaches, actor Romanch Mehta, known for his roles in ‘Kulfi Kumar Bajewala‘ and ‘Kabhi Kabhie Ittefaq Sey,’ opens up about the significance of this special day, his plans, and how the celebration has influenced his perspectives on sibling connections, both in reel and real life.
For Romanch, Bhai Dooj is not just a celebration but a profound acknowledgment of the strong bonds that exist between siblings. He shares, “Bhai Dooj is like having a heart-to-heart chat with my brothers and sisters. It’s not just a celebration; it’s like a mirror showing the simple but strong connections siblings have.
Bhai Dooj makes me notice the small moments, like arguing about the TV remote, sharing laughs, and understanding each other without saying a word. When it comes to acting, Bhai Dooj becomes my secret sauce. It’s not just about saying lines; it’s about feeling the sibling vibe. Bhai Dooj taught me that real connection is the magic that makes on-screen relationships touch hearts. It’s a reminder that the best scenes are the ones painted with genuine emotions.”
Reflecting on a special Bhai Dooj memory from his childhood, Romanch shares a heartwarming anecdote. “Once, on Bhai Dooj, my sister surprised me with a handmade card. It was simple, just like our childhood. But in those crayon lines and misspelled words, I found a treasure. The card spoke a language only siblings understand – love with a touch of mischief. Even today, when I think about it, I feel a warmth that goes beyond words. It’s a reminder that the best gifts come from the heart, not the store.”

He reveals, “My experiences with siblings are like a fountain of inspiration for playing sibling roles on screen. Whether it’s the silent understanding, shared laughter, or the occasional disagreements, I use the mix of emotions from real-life sibling relationships. In getting ready for my role in Bhagin, I went deep into my own experiences, bringing out the mix of love and conflict that often comes with being a sibling. It’s like discovering myself, letting me tap into the honest emotions that connect with people who have felt the strong bond of brotherhood or sisterhood.”
Stressing the importance of Bhai Dooj in the context of family dynamics, Romanch emphasizes, “Bhai Dooj is like a family glue. It reminds us that no matter how busy life gets, family is the heartbeat of it all. This celebration shouts out that our relationships are worth celebrating. In our society, where everything moves fast, Bhai Dooj slows things down and says, ‘Look, this is what matters.’ It’s like a big hug for our families. It reflects the importance of standing by each other, laughing together, and being that support system we all need. It’s not just about siblings; it’s a reminder that family is a gift, and we should unwrap it with love every day.”
