The festival of colours, Holi holds a special place in every Indian’s heart, as it is one of the most celebrated festivals in the country. Although in different parts of the country, we have different names for this festival, but the essence of it remains the same in all the communities. Just like everyone, Bollywood stars also wish their fans and people with beautiful Holi wishes. While some shared pictures from their Holi celebration, some post-fun-filled videos on social media.
Popular dancer and actress, Malaika Arora is one such celebrity, who wishes her massive fanbase of 17.4 million on all important festivals and occasions. However, it was her wish for Holi back in 2019 that brought her right to the centre of controversy. It was on March 21, 2019, when Malaika Arora took to her Instagram handle and posted a video to wish her massive fanbase on Holi. In the video, the actress can be seen donning a top and shorts as she flaunted different shoe colours and designs.
