From childhood adventures and rainy-day shoots to chai, pakoras and family time, actors look back at the monsoon moments they continue to cherishAshnoor Kaur: As a child actor, everyone carried me between sets in the rain<\/span>\u201cOne of my favourite monsoon memories is from shooting in Aamgaon and Umargaon when I was six or seven. Everyone would carry me between sets because of my heavy costumes, and I\u2019d make paper boats to sail in puddles. I also remember a green snake passing through the rainwater, which terrified my mom.\u201d<\/p>\n

Abhishek Bajaj: Helping a stranded motorist is a monsoon memory I\u2019ll never forget<\/span>\u201cOne monsoon, I stopped to help a man push his broken-down car to safety in Powai. It reminded me how a small act of kindness can mean so much. I also love playing football in the mud, dancing in the rain, and ending the day with my mom\u2019s homemade paneer and bhajipakoras.\u201d<\/p>\n

Deepika Singh: Once my father and I went up to the terrace and got drenched in the rain<\/span>\u201cI grew up in Delhi, and one year we witnessed exceptionally heavy rainfall and power cuts across the city. While it was frightening, my father taught me to stay positive. We went up to the terrace, got drenched in the rain, and I made paper boats to float outside. It taught me that happiness is all about perspective.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rohan Mehra: Mumbai\u2019s rains remind me to slow down<\/span>\u201cAfter living in Mumbai for 10 years, I\u2019ve realised the monsoon has a unique way of slowing life down. In a city that\u2019s always rushing, the rains give you a chance to enjoy a quiet cup of chai, reflect on your journey and simply be present.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dalljiet Kaur: Spending time with Jaydon over chai is my favourite monsoon ritual<\/span>\u201cI\u2019ve always loved the rains, but since Jaydon came into my life, they\u2019ve become even more special.
