Islamabad, Nov 3: Sonya Hussain Shares Star-Studded Diwali Celebration Photos, Faces Backlash from Fans. Pakistani actor also recently posted colorful pictures with popular celebrities Sanam Saeed, Sarwat Gilani, Mohib Mirza, Sheheryar Munawar and fashion designer Deepak Perwani in Diwali celebration through Instagram. The actors wore traditional Indian clothing again because of Diwali; Sonya wore a multi-colored saree and a bindi, due to the Hindu celebration corresponding to the goddess Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth.
It is however surprising that instead of shinning copies of individual shots, some of her fans criticised her for being part of the jovial occasion. Some of the girls saw themselves as liberated while a part of them felt like tooba tooba they were turning into Hindus, Islam was as far removed from their lives as it could get, and why would the Hindus celebrate the Muslim festivals, why would we. However, as usual, there are people who took offense, but many fans enjoyed this step towards cultural diversity.
Diwali is a five day festival primarily celebrated using lights, fire crackers and other ornaments derived from the Hindu lunar calendar. Sonya and her friends come together for the kali and her friends come together to celebrate one of the biggest festival of hindus which is celebrated to bring in prosperity or good luck.
