Excerpts from the interview:

 How are you celebrating Eid?

I'm celebrating Eid at home with my family, just the way we celebrated our first Eid. As it's Bakri Eid, and we're all caught up cooking up all the delicacies! I guess this is the new Eid, as we can't go out or have any sort of family gatherings!

What are the special delicacies cooked today at home?

 Dahi Wadas, Nalli Nihari, among a lot of other dishes will be cooked today. And some of the delicacies we will be sending our close ones.

Memories of Eid during childhood?

 There are so many beautiful memories of my childhood. I like every bit of this festival. I love meeting my friends and family. I always loved going out and trying out different kinds of homemade delicacies at my friend's house.

What did you get as Eidi?

I received 'Eidi' as my token of blessings from my parents and I feel truly blessed.

'Are you shooting today?

 No, I'm not shooting today. But if there was a shoot scheduled, I would have been shooting! (smiles)

On the work front, Sara Khan is seen in &TV's show Santoshi Maa.
