Actress of Anmol TV’s ‘Hamari Radha’ says the festival is about family traditions, happiness and welcoming prosperity, beyond shopping for gold and valuables
Mumbai: Dhanteras is traditionally associated with buying gold, silver and other valuables, along with prayers for prosperity and good fortune. However, for television actress Simran Kaur, the festival holds a deeper meaning rooted in family traditions, childhood memories and the happiness of having a loving home.
Simran, who plays Radha in Anmol TV’s first original show ‘Hamari Radha’, recently shared her thoughts on the festival, recalling how her parents would buy gold or something valuable for the family every Dhanteras.
The actress said the excitement surrounding the annual tradition had remained a cherished childhood memory and continued to shape her connection with the festival.
” Dhanteras has always been very special to me because it brings back so many beautiful childhood memories. I remember my parents buying gold or something valuable for our home every year. The excitement and happiness associated with this little family tradition are still fresh in my mind. Even today, I make it a point to buy something special on Dhanteras to carry forward that tradition,” she said.
Explaining what the festival means to her, Simran said Dhanteras goes beyond purchasing gold or material possessions. It is an occasion to welcome Goddess Lakshmi into the home and pray for happiness, prosperity and well-being.

“For me, this festival is not just about buying gold or other things. It is about welcoming Goddess Lakshmi into our homes and praying for happiness, well-being and prosperity. I believe that a home filled with love, security and peace of mind is the real wealth,” she said.
The actress also wished financial stability and opportunities to fulfil dreams for every family, adding that she hoped the festival would bring countless reasons to smile.
Meanwhile, ‘Hamari Radha’ continues to explore an intense relationship drama. Giridhar, played by Akshay Mhatre, is growing closer to Shanaya, portrayed by Vaidehi Nair. Radha, played by Simran Kaur, has decided to seek revenge after being heartbroken by Giridhar’s betrayal. She is now confronting Shanaya while hoping to win Giridhar back.
The show airs every night at 9.30 pm on Anmol TV.
