Plants are more than just décor for actress Shubhangi Atre, known for her role as Angoori Bhabi in Bhabiji Ghar Par Hai. They are her peaceful companions, stressbusters, and a reflection of her inner calm. With over fifty plants in her home, Shubhangi has created a green sanctuary that not only enhances the aesthetic appeal of her living space but also promotes mindfulness, wellness, and emotional connection.
Sharing her deep love for greenery, Shubhangi Atre aka Angoori Bhabi says, “By now, the world knows how much I adore plants. For me, they are not just decorative elements or accessories for my home, but they are family. This love did not blossom overnight. It started years ago with a tiny succulent gifted by a friend during a particularly stressful phase of life. That little plant sat on my windowsill and unknowingly planted a seed in my heart. Over time, I became increasingly drawn to the quiet, grounding presence of greenery. Today, I have over fifty plants spread across every corner of my house, from my balcony and living room to the kitchen and even the bathroom! But the ones closest to my heart reside in my bedroom: the Monstera, the Air Plant, and the Parlour Palm. The Monstera not only adds a tropical charm but also purifies the air and reduces stress. The Air Plant is easy to care for and promotes mindfulness and calmness. The Parlour Palm brings a soothing vibe and acts as a natural humidifier. Together, they make my sanctuary a haven of peace and freshness."
The actress adds, "My journey with plants has also led me to dabble in in-house gardening. There is something so fulfilling about growing your vegetables, even if it's just a few pots of tomatoes, chillies, or mint on the balcony. Watering them, watching them sprout, and using them in cooking brings joy and pride. For me, plants are not just a hobby; they are a way of life. Some people express themselves through fashion or makeup, I express myself through my plans. Each one has a name, a story, and a purpose. They have taught me patience, care, and the beauty of nurturing. And in return, they have filled my home and heart with life." Despite her packed shooting schedule, Shubhangi finds time to tend to her leafy friends, calling it a form of therapy, "Watering them, trimming their leaves, or even just talking to them calms me down. Gardening has taught me patience and helped me slowdown in this fast-paced life. I have always believed that a home filled with greenery is a happy home. For me, plants are not just a hobby, but they are a way of life.”
