Rakul Preet Singh is no stranger to sharing her love for yummy delights with her fans. Time and again, through her social media posts, the actress has shown that she's a true food connoisseur. This year, Rakul Preet celebrated her first Diwali after her marriage to Jackky Bhagnani — and from her Instagram post, it was clear that the festive spread was as lavish as the celebrations. Rakul gave us a glimpse of her Diwali, filled with traditions and a food offering known as “chappan bhog” —an age-old Indian tradition of presenting 56 unique food items as an offering to deities. In her caption, Rakul Preet Singh expressed the joy of embracing traditions with her new family, calling the experience “special.” She wrote, “Our first Diwali was filled with lots of firsts for me. Learning traditions, first puja and the most special first chappan bhog. Grateful, aur jab poori family saath ho toh maza hi alag hai (when the entire family is together, the joy is something else).”
