Kareena Kapoor, Sonam Kapoor, and other Bollywood divas who skip Karwa Chauth
Kareena Kapoor Khan is the OG when it comes to shaking up traditions. Coming from a Punjabi family, you would think she¡¯d be all in for Karwa Chauth, but she¡¯s made it clear: fasting isn¡¯t her love language. "Why should I starve to show my love for my husband?" she quips, proving she¡¯s all about those good vibes (and good food).
Karwa Chauth is like the Super Bowl for married women in India, but not every wifey is down to fast for their hubby's longevity. While the festival is celebrated with full-on glam by many Bollywood actresses, some queens are simply not feeling the fasting vibe. Let¡¯s spill the tea on these fabulous ladies who choose to say "nope" to the Karwa Chauth fast, along with their reasons!

Twinkle Khanna
Twinkle Khanna, the sass queen turned author, isn't buying into the fasting hype either. She believes that starving yourself goes against her health philosophy. ¡°A balanced metabolism over rituals any day!¡± she says, flipping the script on tradition. With her no-nonsense approach to life, Twinkle prefers to keep it real and keeps her plate full. Sorry, not sorry, Karwa Chauth!
Sonam Kapoor
The ever-stylish Sonam Kapoor has also joined the no-fast club, sharing that she celebrates Karwa Chauth by dressing up and enjoying fabulous food with her family. "Fasting? Nah. Let¡¯s just vibe together and feast!" she says, proving that looking chic while indulging in yummy treats is the real festival spirit. After all, life is too short to skip dessert!
Mira Rajput
Mira Rajput, married to Shahid Kapoor, had us all laughing when she shared her love for food over fasting. Last year, she cheekily told Shahid that their "forever threesome" (her, him, and food, obviously) is more important than following the tradition. Her cute post was filled with warm wishes for Shahid's health but made it clear: her love for food is on the same level as her love for him!
Ratna Pathak Shah
Lastly, we have the witty Ratna Pathak, who doesn¡¯t just skip the fast; she¡¯s also stirring the pot with her opinions. During an interview, she pointed out the outdated beliefs surrounding Karwa Chauth, questioning why educated women still cling to such customs. Her spicy comments got her some heat from social media, but she¡¯s not one to back down from a discussion.
