How Bollywood Celebrated Holi 2009

Amitabh Bachchan: `Nothing! We´re celebrating no Holi this year. Yes, I know our home is an open house on Holi every year. Hopefully we´ll be back to celebrating Holi next year. ´This year too many tragic events have happened around us. On a personal level, my father´s passing away then my mother´s prolonged illness have suspended Holi celebrations in my house. And then, of course, the things that are happening in Mumbai city and the country. Do you think anyone is in the mood for celebration? We´re not. Maybe next year.´

Preity Zinta: `What am I doing for Holi? Nothing. Sleeping the whole day. Recovering from my jet lag after my trip to New Zealand. In any case, I think Holi has lost its original spirit long back.´

Deepika Padukone: `I´ll have the day off. I´ll celebrate with my family and close friends.´

Farhan Akhtar: `For the time in living memory I won´t be home for Holi. I´ll be shooting abroad. It breaks my heart to miss Holi. Can´t be helped.´

Bipasha Basu: `I´ve no Holi plans. I´m allergic to the abeer and other Holi colours. I´ll spend Holi with my family, devouring Holi delicacies. It´s a diet-free day for me.´
