Sangita Ghosh said, “I don't fast on Karwa Chauth. I can't fast; mere se fast hota hi nahi hai. Also, due to medical reasons, I avoid fasting. During my childhood, I used to fast for pujas, but gradually I realised that when you are fasting, you are thinking about food all the time—‘kab khane milega?’—which makes the fast meaningless. However, intermittent fasting happens naturally for me, as I’m accustomed to eating only twice a day. Now, I don’t keep fasts on festivals or special occasions.”


The Saajha Sindoor actress further added, “Though I'm not very spiritual, I pray every day. I'm not one of those who will keep fasts. However, I do believe and agree that there exists some force or energy that guides you, and you have to read the signs. I also believe that you don't have to be spiritual to hold beliefs; you learn from your everyday experiences.”


Sangita Ghosh portrays Saroj, the stepmother of Gagan (played by Sahil Uppal), in Saajha Sindoor, a character that contrasts sharply with her vibrant real-life persona.
