The arrival of the monsoon season brings with it a sense of relief from the scorching heat and humidity of the summers. News anchor turned actor Charrul Malik understands the joy of experiencing the first raindrops and savoring delicious food with loved ones.
While going out during the rainy season may not always be convenient, there is an undeniable charm and romance associated with the rains. Charrul shares her thoughts and favorite aspects of the monsoon season.
For Charrul, the monsoon serves as a much-needed respite from the oppressive heat and humidity. The arrival of rain is always a welcome relief, providing a refreshing change in the weather. She particularly enjoys the coolness and freshness that the rains bring. While there may not be any specific traditions associated with the monsoon for Charrul, she emphasizes the importance of using insect repellents during this time, as the rain tends to attract various insects.
However, shooting outdoors during the monsoon season poses its own set of challenges. Charrul shares her experience of commuting to her set in Naigaon, where heavy rains and water-logging make transportation difficult. The issue of traffic congestion exacerbates the problem, not only during the monsoon but throughout the year.

She highlights the need for better infrastructure and government intervention to address these issues. Charrul also recalls the catastrophic floods that occurred on July 26, 2005, and emphasizes the importance of finding long-term solutions to prevent such disasters in the future.
Taking care of one’s hair and skin becomes crucial during the monsoon season. Charrul advises using less oily products on the face and avoiding heavy and greasy foods. It is essential to opt for waterproof makeup and try to prevent the hair from getting wet in the rain. She suggests using natural products and opting for cotton clothing that dries quickly. Charrul believes that wearing warm colors brings positive vibes and comfort during the rainy season.
Reflecting on her childhood memories in Chandigarh, Charrul reminisces about the spacious houses and the delightful scent that filled the air during the monsoon. She and her sister used to play in the rain, getting completely drenched and experiencing pure bliss.
Chai-pakora sessions on the veranda, sitting on chairs, were a common occurrence, creating treasured moments. However, in Mumbai, with smaller houses, Charrul acknowledges that the experience is different, but the joy of the monsoon remains intact.
When asked about her favorite monsoon songs, Charrul enthusiastically mentions “Ek Ladki Bheegi Bhaagi Si” and “Pyaar Hua Ekraar Hua.” These timeless classics evoke nostalgia and capture the essence of romance in the rain, resonating with her on a personal level.
