Actress Devoleena Bhattacharjee shared her views on Karwa Chauth, stating it should be a personal choice and not a subject of judgment. She has never observed the fast as it is not a tradition in Bengali and Assamese cultures, but expressed interest in keeping it in the future, though she is concerned about fasting without water. Devoleena, who is married to fitness trainer Shanawaz Shaikh, mentioned she is still breastfeeding and hopes to observe the fast next year.
She emphasized that many couples see Karwa Chauth as a love language, with husbands increasingly fasting alongside their wives. As long as no one is forced, she believes people should be free to celebrate in ways that bring them happiness. Devoleena and Shanawaz married in December 2022 and welcomed their son on December 18, 2024.
