When asked about the best part of the day, Reddy told The Hans India: “The best part was when I saw the complete family participating in the rangoli competition. Father, mother, daughter, sisters and so on, all of them were seen making rangoli together. The unity and the love with which they were trying to make their rangoli look best was the exact thing which we wanted to convey through programme.”
