Diwali, the festival of lights, is round the corner. To mark the beginning of this special festive season, Star Plus has put together a special showcase as an entertainment treat – ‘Star Diwali: Thodi Si Muskan, Dher Sara Pyar’. The special Diwali show will bring together the full Star Parivaar under one roof to celebrate the festival amidst spectacular song, dance and merriment on October 26 and 27 at 7 PM on Star Plus.

‘Star Diwali: Thodi Si Muskan, Dher Sara Pyar’ will be a grand affair with TV celebrities in their celebratory best – dressed in festive finery, dancing to superbly choreographed performances on the grandest sets ever. All members of Star Parivaar such as Sooraj, Sandhya, Bhabho, Meenakshi from ‘Diya Aur Baati Hum’, Naitik from ‘Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai’, Poonam and Akash from ‘Ek Ghar Banaonga’, Shraddha and Kritika from ‘Meri Bhabhi’, Aditya from ‘Pyar Ka Dard Hain Meetha Meetha Pyaara, Pyaara’, Ratan from ‘Veera’ and many other popular faces like Karan Wahi, Shaleen Bhanot, Sanjeeda Sheikh and Sayantani Ghosh will make their presence felt.

Choreographers Puneet and Tusshar will stage a beautifully choreographed dance while Sandhya will pay a tribute to the girl child. On the auspicious day of Ashtami, Star Diwali will also stage an act that will bring all the various Hindu gods associated with the festival under one roof – Durga, Shiv Parvati, Ganpati, Ram and Sita. To ensure that there is more than a generous dose of entertainment, NachBaliye 6 couple Gurmeet and Debina will be seen gyrating to a very sensuous song setting the stage on fire.

Bharti Singh gets ready to tickle some more bones with her ‘dance comedy’, grooving to some hit Bollywood numbers. There is a special dance performance by Karan Wahi, Esha Kansara and Nakul Mehta where they drop their casual look for a younger look, trying to woo the pretty Esha. Karan Mehra and Anas Rashid perform on religious melodies adding to the festive fervour.

There is also a surprise element in the show with Bollywood actor Sonakshi Sinha, who makes a ‘pataaka’ appearance. She will not only be seen dancing to the tunes of her latest movie, ‘Bullet Raja’, but join the festivity with the Star Parivaar. “I love being part of all Star Parivaar celebrations; it truly has the warmth of real family celebration,” said Sinha.
