Here’s something straight from Bollywood actress Hema Malini’s kitchen—a glimpse of pongal made by the Dream Girl herself.

On the occasion of Lohri, also called Pongal and Sankranti, Hema Malini made sure to celebrate the festival with its much-loved traditional food. She shared a picture of herself where she can been seen stirring a brass vessel in her kitchen. She captioned it, “Celebrated Pongal with the family today. Here I am making the Pongal at home.” Charming as ever, the veretan actress is dressed in a baby pink saree.
