Mumbai, March 13 (IANS) Bollywood actress Radhika Madan has reminisced about her favorite childhood memories of Holi celebration.
In an exclusive conversation with IANS, the ‘Shiddat’ actress shared her fond memories, saying, “Nothing too crazy, but I remember that in my childhood, I used to mix bright colors with mud in a balloon and throw it at people. That’s the most I did on Holi.” For Radhika, the playful spirit of the festival was all about simple, fun-filled moments.
Aside from the playful color-throwing, Radhika also shared that food played an important role in her family’s celebrations. “At home, we always used to make gujiyas, and that’s my favorite part,” she recalled, emphasizing how the delicious sweet treats became a cherished part of the holiday tradition.

The ‘Angrezi Medium’ actress also fondly remembered the community spirit of Holi in her childhood. “I remember when I was young, there used to be a community center in my colony, and the whole neighborhood would gather for Holika Dahan the night before. I have a very vivid memory of the entire community coming together,” Radhikka said.
Holi 2025 celebrations will take place on March 13 and 14, beginning with Holika Dahan and followed by Rangwali Holi.
