But working and helping underprivileged children and women had been her passion.

Herbal Holi was celebrated in Mumbai in association with SRGK Entertainment which was established by Mr. Rajesh Kumar Mohanty. Midday group of publications was the media partner of this celebration which got massive response from Mumbaikars.

Talking about this unique initiative, Rajesh Mohanty said, “Herbal Holi is also being organised to stop the usage of chemical laden colours during the festival. It is not only harmful for human bodies but child labourers are also employed in large numbers which not only robs them of their childhood but also of their future. The more organic and natural colours are used during the festival of holi, less and less harmful chemicals will be in circulation and thus people will be saved from getting affected by it. Celebrations like Herbal Holi is useful in spreading the message of harmful effects of chemicals on human bodies.”
