Actor and musician Iman Chakraborty believes that Durga Pujo would be incomplete without the closeness of family, meals shared at the table, and countless chats with loved ones. Iman talks about the customs that make Pujo unique in her home, remembering how her family gathers for meals during the celebration. For her, these get-togethers are about much more than just eating; they’re about catching up, gossiping, laughing, and preserving family ties. The Raandhuni Na Kaanduni competitor provides an intimate look at her Pujo festivities, where unity is still at the center of each joyous memory.

Raandhuni Na Kaanduni’s contribution to the Sony AATH kitchen is precisely what Pujo is all about—friendly banter, addaa, and delectable food. Things will undoubtedly get amusing when the argument shifts from the dining table to the show’s kitchen.

Iman said, “Pujo has always meant gathering around the dinner table for us. These meals are never simply about eating in a joint family since there is so much talking, gossiping, and laughing that the adda takes on equal significance to the food! Before you know it, a straightforward dinner becomes a lengthy family get-together because everyone has a story to tell. No matter how hectic life gets, Pujo allows us to reconnect and make memories together. Over the years, sitting together during Pujo has become a routine for us. These small things—the familiar faces, the endless talks, and the thrill of being with your loved ones—are what I find to be the true joy of Pujo”.

Watch Raandhuni Na Kaanduni, every Monday to Friday at 8:00 PM on Sony AATH and Sony LIV.
