‘We’ve started buying both gold and silver, in our son Mehraan’s name’: Akriti Kakar

Singer Akriti Kakar shares how the festival of Akshay Tritiya continues to hold deep personal and cultural significance for her family, blending tradition with a forward-looking sense of purpose.

Akriti says, “Akshay Tritiya has always been special for us; it’s a tradition we’ve lovingly held on to, to bring home some form of gold every year. For us, it isn’t just about it being an investment—though it truly is one of the best—but also about the deep sense of auspiciousness it carries."

The singer, known for hits like Saturday Saturday, Iski Uski, Saiyaan, Masha Allah, Khudaya Khair and many others, adds, "Over the past few years, we’ve also started buying both gold and silver, and that too consciously in our son Mehraan’s name. There’s something very meaningful about that. Akshay Tritiya, to me, signifies the beginning of a new chapter of prosperity and success. And as a family, buying gold feels like our own little way of manifesting and securing a future filled with abundance and happiness for him.”
