Television actors urge fans to play dry Holi and save water

MUMBAI: Holi is here with all its colours and yummy food. TV actors request fans to play a safe Holi with dry colours and not to waste water.

Rehaan Roy: My Holi plans for this year are very simple. I will be focusing more on spending time with family rather than playing Holi. The water crisis is a really big issue, and we, as responsible citizens of Mumbai, should realize our duty towards this. My personal opinion would always be that enjoy the festival, but don’t make problems for others. Play with dry colours and try keeping them organic. Save water as much as possible, because summers are coming, and we all know how the water condition is in Mumbai during summers.

Prakriti Nautiyal: My plan for Holi this year is to celebrate with my best friends and, of course, my new favourite co-actress and a dear friend Ridhima Tiwari. We will be probably going to a festival and then a house party. I definitely know there’s a huge water crisis in Mumbai and people should play with dry colours. It’s important to save water and the most important thing people should avoid is colouring animals.

Rushad Rana: With the water crisis rising high in Mumbai, everyone needs to be aware of their environment and needs to contribute towards it. I urge people to play dry Holi and not waste water.

Rohitashv Gour: I am definitely not playing Holi with water. It's not fun also. I would love playing dry Holi with organic colours, and I support playing dry Holi.

Sumit Kaul: Holi is a festival of colours, and that's what it should be. One should play it with organic colours and not with chemicals. I do believe that it's time to save and conserve water, and therefore, we need to be judicious. We should ensure that we play dry Holi, and I hope more and more people do the same.
