’, says he enjoys the patriotic and Tricolor fervour on the Republic Day. The actor says, "Republic day is the time when we enjoy the patriotic and Tricolor fervour. And I'm fond of it. I still remember, during college one of the most exciting memories from Republic Day was to figure out creative ways to include the saffron, white and green on ourselves, whether it be the tricolour headbands, badges or braiding our hair in the tricolour ribbons."

Puneett feels this year can a good celebration by hosting a flag. "I remember Republic Day 2021 was a different one due to the pandemic. We won’t have the huge community Republic Day celebration, but a smaller, scaled-back one. This time around, Republic Day 2022 feels like a good time for a small celebration."

He then reveals his R-day plan, Puneett adds, "In a country with as diverse food traditions as India, one of the best ways for the citizens to celebrate Republic Day is to experiment and get creative with the food they make. I got the idea from Hotels, Restaurants, and

Cafes

like how they come up with special Republic Day menus, you will find a tri-colour biryani being made in most places in Hyderabad, while many places in Gujarat will make special tricolour dhoklas, we find the tiranga lassi in Punjab, while we find tricolour rabdi in Rajasthan. So for tomorrow I will cook something special and enjoy Republic day. I'm proud and happy to belong to India and be connected to our roots. This Republic Day Celebration, we’ll watch the parade from the comfort and safety of our homes while snacking on All Things DESi, the yummiest Indian snacks made with natural ingredients!"
