New bride, Parineeti wrote: “Happy Dussehra everyone. Wish you all good health, success, prosperity.”

Veteran actress Saira Banu also ignited Dussehra spirit with a throwback post. With Dussehra, a festival marking the triumph of Lord Rama, an avatar of Lord Vishnu, over the demon king Ravana, Saira found a poignant way to connect with the celebration. Many films have portrayed the event, and the tradition still goes on.

One such instance was during the 1974 film ‘Resham Ki Dori'. Taking to Instagram Stories shared her heartfelt reflections on the festival's significance, intertwined with her own experiences.

She shared a special snippet from ‘Resham Ki Dori', starring her and Dharmendra in pivotal roles. She wrote: "As we celebrate Dussehra, let us reflect on the message it carries: Victory of virtue and right over vice. I wish you all a very Happy Dussehra; may you receive the best that God has to offer.”

In the clip of the vintage film, netizens can see Saira portraying Anupama, lifting the bow to the effigy of Ravana on the eve of Dussehra. This symbolises the destruction of negative energy. The scene is followed by a resounding cheer all around, as Ravana is engulfed in flames.

Actor Anupam Kher dropped a motion video of Lord Ram on his Instagram and captioned it, "Best wishes to all of you on the auspicious Dussehra! #HappyDussehra to all!"

Look at the other celebs post here:

Dussehra is that time of the year when the well-known Ramleela is held, massive fairs are organised and people gather in large numbers to see Raavan effigies burst into flames.

Dusshera falls on the tenth day of Sharada Navratri, however, despite the fact that celebrations and cultural practices vary according to the location in India's culturally rich country, the festival's fabric that binds everyone together remains.
