Pooja further added, "Since my childhood, I have loved this festival and from getting the idol home till the time of Visarjan, I would dance my heart out every year. I also used to play the dhol while getting Bappa to our house in Nagpur. In Mumbai too, Ganesh Utsav has been a great way to enjoy a reunion with our buddies as all of us used to visit our friends' houses for celebrations. Sadly, we all will miss meeting our friends and celebrating the festival together this year, but I would like to wish everyone a Happy Ganesh Chaturthi and I pray to Lord Ganesha to take all the Vighna (obstacles) away from us this year."
'Kumkum Bhagya' has been an audience favourite with its intriguing plot and the authentic portrayal of relatable characters like Abhi (Shabbir Ahluwalia), Pragya (Sriti Jha), Rhea (Pooja Banerjee), Ranbir (Krishna Kaul) and Prachi (Mugdha Chapekar). Speaking about her professional life, Banerjee is married to Olympian swimmer, Sandeep Sejwal. He clinched a bronze medal in the 50m breaststroke at the 2014 Asian Games which were held in Incheon.
