Actress Mouni Roy posted photos from her Poila Baisakh and Vishu celebrations with hubby Suraj Nambiar.

Mouni took to Instagram, posting many photos of herself and Suraj dressed in cultural garb and writing in Bengali, "Greetings and love for the happy new year."

The duo looked elegant as they wore white and gold attire. The actress accessorised her hair with a strand of mogra flowers and wore gold jewellery. 

Vishu, or Poila Baisakh, is a harvest festival that marks the beginning of the new year. It is commemorated by Hindus, who celebrate it with great enthusiasm. While the southerners celebrate Vishu, Poila Baisakh commemorates the Bengali New Year.

People clean and adorn their houses to welcome Goddess Lakshmi and Lord Ganesha. The main door is decorated with alpona, an artwork made of rice and flour.

People put on new clothes and go to the temple to seek benediction. This day is also celebrated with numerous artistic and cultural acts. Traditional foods are cooked both at home and in restaurants. 

Mouni married Suraj in Goa in January 2022. The couple held two ceremonies based on Bengali and South Indian traditions.
