Jhanak fame Aarya DharmChand Kumar on Holi: I love watching my kids play and have a good time

Actor Aarya DharmChand Kumar, known for his performances in Jhanak and Pushpa Impossible, shares his perspective on celebrating Holi as a father. For him, the festival is not just about playing with colors but also about fostering love, unity, and responsibility in his children.
"Holi, the festival of colors, is not just a vibrant celebration but also a significant occasion for families to bond and create lasting memories," says Aarya. He reminisces about his childhood celebrations in Jammu, filled with colors and laughter. However, fatherhood has given him a new perspective on the festival. "Now, instead of being more into playing, I enjoy spending time with my family, especially my kids—my son Aadidev and daughter Devi. I love watching them play and have a good time. This year, I will be making their favorite sweet, kheer, to add to the celebrations."

Beyond the fun and festivities, Aarya emphasizes the importance of educating children about the roots and significance of Holi. "As parents, we often seek opportunities to instill values, teach lessons, and nurture our children’s growth. As a responsible father, I make sure to teach my kids that Holi is not just about playing with colors; it’s also about spreading love and goodwill."
He believes that the festival offers a beautiful way to teach children about acceptance and inclusivity. "Encouraging kids to play with friends from diverse backgrounds helps them understand the beauty of unity in diversity. The colorful splashes of Holi provide an excellent opportunity for children to unleash their creativity and express themselves freely."

Aarya also stresses the importance of environmental consciousness during Holi. "In recent years, there has been growing awareness about the environmental impact of synthetic colors. As parents, we can teach our children to respect nature by opting for natural and eco-friendly colors made from flowers, herbs, and organic materials. This not only fosters environmental consciousness but also promotes a sense of responsibility."

With his balanced approach to the festival, Aarya DharmChand Kumar ensures that Holi in his household is not just about fun but also about learning, love, and respect for both people and nature.
