The harvest festival of Makar Sankranti, also known as Uttarayan in some parts of the country, is incomplete without tilkut and ladoo made with sesame seeds. During the festival, people make sweets with til and jaggery and share them with family and friends. That is what even Shilpa Shetty did. The actress has made it a tradition to wish her followers on most festivals. For Sankranti as well, she has shared a video on Instagram where she’s seen greeting her followers with a plate full of til ka ladoo. “May the harvest festival reap you all the love, blessings, and happiness that you deserve. Happy Makar Sankranti and Happy Pongal to everyone,” Shilpa captioned the post.
