Nauheed Cyrusi’s latest appearance on Tere Gully Mein was packed with everything we love about Parsi culture — from delicious homemade rum cake and iconic eateries to fascinating traditions, quirky slang and stories about the community’s close-knit way of life. But, of course, we couldn’t have a conversation with Nauheed without talking about travel! The actress opened up about some of her favourite destinations and the places she loves exploring. Here’s what she had to say…
Nauheed Cyrusi Reveals Why She Hates To Travel Now
When we asked Nauheed Cyrusi about the places she has travelled to, the actress revealed that she has explored quite a bit of the world over the years. However, these days, she finds herself craving the comfort of home more than another trip. “You know, frankly, I hate travelling now. I have come to a point where I am so tired of the whole packing and unpacking – it’s so tedious. Okay, wrong word! Hate is a very strong word but I never thought I would say this but I love home. I just love being with my dogs,” she shared with a smile.
Nauheed also revealed that she and her husband, Rustom, have created their own little escape outside Mumbai, where they often head to unwind and spend some quality time together. For her, it seems that the idea of a perfect getaway these days is less about hopping on a flight and more about escaping the city, slowing down and enjoying the simple comforts of home — especially with her beloved dogs around.
