“Will enjoy my mother’s cooking this Eid” : Jaya Ahsan

Eid is a joyous occasion unlike any other. Twice a year (usually) people finally get a short vacation where their families can be their main focus. Many travel hundreds of miles to return to their village, others get the opportunity to just stay at home and cherish the special moments with their families. 

Just like all of us, the stars and celebrities of the Bangladeshi entertainment industry also get to take some time off during this holy occasion. They get to take off their artistes' caps and finally relax with their loved ones, while possibly enjoying performances and projects from their industry peers. This Eid-ul-Adha, The Daily Star caught up with Jaya Ahsan to learn what the actress would be doing this Eid.

"After COVID, this will be the first Eid-ul-Adha that I spend in Dhaka. I usually spend Eid with my mother. This time, too, I will be spending it with her. Throughout the year, I am more or less occupied with shootings for various projects."

"So, Eid is one of the few times I get to enjoy the holidays. And I want to give these holidays to my mother. I am looking forward to eating my mother's hand-cooked dishes this Eid, and I hope to prepare some dishes of my own. Society is made of both the poor and the rich, and my only wish is that each and every person gets to experience the joy that comes with Eid."
