Actress Urvashi Upadhyay, currently seen as Kusum Saxena in the popular television show Mangal Lakshmi, chose to celebrate her birthday this year with devotion, gratitude, and spiritual reflection rather than grand festivities. Taking a break from her shooting schedule for the special day, the actress spent her time at home with prayers and family.
A Day of Faith and Gratitude
“I’m not shooting today. It’s my off, and my birthday,” Urvashi shares. “This evening I’ll keep a puja and offer gratitude. I love my work and will definitely miss my set and scenes, but today is about being at home, praying, and celebrating quietly. I want to honour another year with devotion, peace, and the simple blessing of being present.”
The actress reveals that she and her husband, Kishor Sharle, observed a fast together. “I’m keeping a fast with my husband today, making this birthday one of faith and gratitude,” she says. “It falls during a very blessed period, and luckily I had the day off, so we could plan a puja at home—something almost impossible during hectic shoot schedules.”
A Steadfast Television Career
Urvashi made her acting debut with Hamari Devrani in 2008 and has since been part of several notable shows, including Rang Jaun Tere Rang Mein, Dil Se Dil Tak, and Thapki Pyar Ki 2. Over the years, she has steadily built a reputation as a graceful and dependable presence on Indian television, earning the admiration of audiences and peers alike.
Her decision to spend her birthday in quiet reflection rather than amid the usual fanfare highlights her grounded nature and the importance she places on spiritual well-being. As she continues to shine on screen, Urvashi remains a beloved figure both for her acting prowess and her personal values.
