That’s why it’s the month of fasting, asking for whatever you desire and doing charity. With Zehaan (her son, with actor-husband Zaid Darbar), I cannot wait to wake up for my sehri and have him join us. I am looking forward to dressing him up for the namaz. I want him to enjoy the festivities and start learning our culture. I am on a strict diet, so I will make sure I don’t eat too much fried stuff.”
