Rishika Mihani celebrating her mom's birthday in Mahabaleshwar

Rishika Mihani who plays Shivani Sahil Sisodiya in Sony TV's Love Marriage ya Arranged Marriage is with her sister Muskaan to celebrate her mother Jyoti Mihani's birthday. Rishika who has been working very hard had requested for a four day leave so that she could take her mom to Goa to celebrate her birthday. However as she got a leave for just two days she decided to go to Mahabaleshwar instead. 

She told india-forums.com, "My mom loves nature and the mountains. Therefore Mahabaleshwar is the perfect place for her to spend her birthday." 

When we called Rishika she was at the Mahabaleshwar market place with her mother and sister.  Jyotiji loves an Indian bazaar with a rustic flavor. Instead of shopping in an air-conditioned city mall, she chose to shop in the colourful open air bazaar simultaneously enjoying the cool morning mountain air. 

Jyotiji who has a very spiritual bent of mind, will be visiting two temples of Mahabaleshwar which is also renowned for being an important pilgrimage site.  They will also take a leisurely walk in its gorgeous strawberry farms.  

Regarding her mom Rishika says, "She is the best mom in the whole world, a great cook and my best friend. She is always there for us and I can share all my problems with her."

We wish Jyotiji a very happy birthday. Let the Mihani family have a relaxing holiday in Mahabaleshwar.
