Ganeshotsav is all about coming together with your family and friends, welcoming Bappa home, and of course, gobbling down modaks!
And actress Shriya Pilgaonkar is no different.
She took to Instagram to share the sweet ritual of her family coming together to make Ukdiche Modak during this festival.
In the video, you can see the entire family sitting together to make the delicacy.
Right from cooking the filling to steaming them, Shriya showed how they made modaks together.
It is interesting to see how the family uses no mould but hands to shape the modaks perfectly – years of practice right there!
Shriya also shared that in Sanskrit, modak means ‘anand’ or ‘pure happiness’.
She then says, “So, I am assuming that this modak means 'jo anand deta hai' (one that gives you the purest joy). And it is true because I love this.”
