Sheezan Khan on Ramadan: It Seems Like A Festival Of 30 Days

14^th March,2024, Mumbai: For us, Ramadan has always held great significance. The entire 30-day period evokes childhood memories and feels like a carnival. Even though we don’t celebrate the holidays as much as we did when we were kids, we still went to our grandparents’ house and shared iftar with the neighbours. Fasting is a test of life’s patience, and it teaches us patience. I think that all year long, we should learn to be patient,” he says.“I try to fast for the full 30 days, but sometimes I miss it,” he continues. However, I always make sure to be present during iftar.

Sheezan Khan On His Ramadan Tradition

Speaking of his customs, he states, “I have a special tradition that I follow during Ramadan.” I prefer to spend time with my family at home for iftar, the evening meal that breaks the fast, rather than going out. When we meet together, we always make time for prayer. Because friends and family frequently stop over to join us, it turns into a joyful and delightful occasion. Being with loved ones while enjoying a special meal and prayers in the privacy of our home is a precious and uncomplicated custom.

“My favourite food is fruit salad and onion pakoras, but I’m on a diet, so I don’t eat much,” he continues.

Positivity Is The Major Thing In Ramadan

He remarks, “I notice positive changes in myself during Ramadan,” when asked how the festival affects him. We become more vigilant, abstaining from misbehaviour, altercations, and disputes. The month promotes introspection and self-examination. It’s a unique moment when we make patience a priority and work to infuse more peace and understanding into our everyday existence.
