Stars savour Mumbai winter

Even Mumbai seems to be getting its own small slice of winter this year — that gentle nip in the air, the softer sunlight, the sudden calmness around Film City. And, our television stars are absolutely loving it. They tell us just how deeply this season affects them in their day-to-day work life.

Night rider: Kanwar Dhillon

Whether I’m shooting or not, the winter elevates my mood and instantly makes me get out of the house by riding my sports bike, specially at night. It’s been a practice for many years. I enjoy the empty streets at night and my time on the bike. So, the winter has definitely, again, pushed me to take out my bike every night. And currently, I’m shooting night shifts. Also, shooting night shifts in Film City is fun because it’s surrounded by forest and we are in the middle of nature. And the temperatures, in comparison to the city temperatures, are way cooler. It’s a super chill atmosphere, and I’m enjoying it.

Feels like home: Pranitaa Pandit

Being a Delhi girl, winter has always felt magical to me. Even this tiny hint of winter that Mumbai gets puts me in the best mood on set. That slight chill in the air, the softer sunlight… it reminds me of home and makes the whole day feel lighter and happier.

Cozy vibe: Samridhii Shukla

One thing about winter that instantly puts me in a good mood on set is that little chill in the air as our set is in Film City and it’s surrounded by trees. In Mumbai, when the weather gets a bit cooler, it feels so refreshing. I love holding a warm cup of coffee between shots. It just makes everything feel calmer and nicer. That slight winter vibe makes the whole day on set feel cozy and happy.

Ginger-ly: Pratiksha Rai

The moment that the winter chill hits the set, my mood instantly lifts. Everything suddenly feels magical. And I love that Mumbai now gives us even a tiny hint of winter… bas thodi si thand and I’m smiling. But the real highlight for me is ginger tea. .

Peaceful feeling: Adrija Roy

Winter is my favourite season. The winter sun just adds this warm, cozy feeling to the day. Even getting ready in the vanity feels nicer when it is a little cold. Winter just makes everything feel peaceful for me.
