Valentines Day special! Laapataa Ladies fame Pratibha Rannta on her love for red roses

For Laapataa Ladies actress Pratibha Rannta, it’s often the scent of roses that interrupts her morning jogs through her neighbourhood, Versova. Flowers, she says, have a way of gently pulling her into the present, much like they do at the end of a long day.

Pratibha says, “Flowers, especially roses, make me feel special,” she shares. “Whenever I look at a bunch of them, it reminds me of my childhood — of warmth and happiness. Materialistic things can never make me feel that way. I love buying flowers for myself. If I’ve had an amazing day at work, I’ll stop by a flower shop on my way home, pick up some roses, and place them next to my paintings. Love means a lot to me, but right now my focus is on work.”




With Valentine’s Day tomorrow, the actress says red roses, for her, are the ultimate symbol of love. “They’re a solid, concrete sign of love,” she says. Ask the actress if the current life phase were a rose colour, what would it be? “Sunshine yellow,” she answers. “That’s my current phase — hopeful, optimistic, and looking forward to

the future.”Get the latest entertainment updates from the Times of India, along with the latest Hindi movies, upcoming Hindi movies in 2026 , and Telugu movies.”
