Abraam Pandey recently entered the hit Colors show Naagin 7, and fans have been loving his strong personality and natural acting. As we celebrate Holi 2026, the actor shared honest thoughts on what the festival means to him, his favourite memories, and the traditions that are important to him.
When asked about the significance of Holi, Abraam said,
“Holi has never been just a festival of colours for me. I genuinely see it as a reset button. It’s that one day when people drop their ego, forget old arguments, and just laugh together. I’ve always felt that Holi teaches you something simple but powerful—nothing is permanent. Today your face is covered in colour, tomorrow it’s clean again. As an actor, that idea connects with me deeply. Identities change, situations change, but what stays is how you treat people.”
Reflecting on his childhood, Abraam fondly recalled,
“One of my sweetest childhood memories of Holi is from my building days. We would start early in the morning and literally not stop till evening. Buckets, balloons, empty water tanks—complete madness. There was always that one uncle or aunty who would pretend to get angry but secretly enjoy the chaos. The best part wasn’t the colour. It was the freedom. No phones, no social media, no posing—just pure fun and real connection. That innocence is something I truly miss.”
Even today, family traditions remain central to Abraam’s celebrations. He shared,
“Even today, no matter how busy I am, I make sure to put colour on my parents first. That’s a tradition I’ll never skip. Before friends, before any celebration, family comes first. Touching their feet, applying a little gulaal, that moment means more to me than anything else on that day.”
When it comes to playing Holi, Abraam doesn’t hold back.
“I’m definitely not a dry Holi person. If I’m playing, I’m playing properly—with colours, water, full energy. But always respectfully. I don’t believe in forcing anyone. Celebration should never make someone uncomfortable,” he added.
On how Holi celebrations have evolved in 2026, Abraam observed,
“Earlier, it was more about community and just being present. Now there are reels, perfectly planned pictures, eco-friendly branding, and curated parties. The awareness is good, people are more careful about skin, water, and the environment. But somewhere the raw, carefree chaos of childhood feels rare now. It’s more aesthetic, less wild. Still, the core of Holi hasn’t changed. It’s about connection, forgiveness, and joy. And that’s something I hope always stays the same.”
Abraam Pandey‘s thoughts remind us that Holi will always be special because it brings people together and makes them happy.
