Dhaka, Oct. 24 -- For popular actress Rituparna Sengupta of West Bengal, 'Bhaiphonta' has always been one of the favourite festivals of her life. She finds special joy in this event for her brothers.

However, this year, her heart is filled with sadness around 'Bhaiphonta' because she lost her mother last year.

Rituparna said, "Brothers are not just people related by blood.

There are also some people who are like brothers. It feels great to spend this day with all of them.

However, this year, why should all the lights go out just because my mother is not here?"
