Bursting crackers can harm pets: Anushka
Bollywood actress Anushka Sharma says she stopped bursting crackers at Dewali as it can harm pets.
Anushka Sharma has reasons to smile this Diwali. Her film Jab Tak Hai Jaan directed by Yash Chopra releases on Diwali day thereby making the festival more special for her.
Undoubtedly this would be a memorable Diwali for the actress but we ask her about her earlier memorable moments and she says, "My best memory of Diwali is the food that used to be made in my house on Diwali, as my mother used to go all out to make the best food one could think off. After burning the fire crackers we would come back home to a good meal, it was the best way to end Diwali."
The actress now endorses environmental-friendly Diwali and says, "I have stopped bursting crackers around six to seven years ago as I think it is not good for the environment. Also the day I saw how my friend s dog was petrified due to the firecrackers, I just stopped bursting crackers for good as I felt it s really unfair to the pets".
"I hope we can practice the festival in a safe manner and not create nuisance for other people, have respect for your neighbours and enjoy the festival in the right spirit", signs off the actress on a positive note.
