âJiya Re' singer Neeti Mohan turns 43 today and has flown out of the country with family to celebrate her special day. Neeti took some time off for a conversation with mid-day.com and shared her plans!
How are you celebrating this year?
I'm in Dubai with family and friends. The plan is to do experience-based activities with babies. We are in a forest at the moment and swam into the river. The idea was to get away so my parents, husband, all of us took off to Dubai for a week and have planned different activities for each day.
Do you follow any birthday traditions?

I visit a temple every year and this time too I will pray at a temple in Dubai. I feel like it's the beginning of a New Year and you require blessings to start it. My parents are with me on my birthday and that itself is a blessing.
Any special moments from the past year that come to mind?
Last year was amazing, personally, professionally and spiritually. Now that I'm a mother, spending quality time with my baby is special and important. At the same time I never imagined being so busy as a working mother. I hope this continues in the coming year and I become a better human being and artiste.
The best part about birthdaysâ¦
The excitement that you have the entire year for loved ones. You reset what you want to work on in the coming year, when the birthday arrives. I make a checklist of my goals. Plus my birthday is around year end so I start making my New Year's resolutions on my birthday.
A dream you hope to fulfil in the coming yearâ¦
I'm starting a business and once I'm closer to the launch I will reveal details. I've received a lot of love from fans and now it's time to give back to society! I need love and support.
Precious birthday memoriesâ¦
Birthdays are always special but this year my sisters landed in Dubai to surprise me so it has become even more special.
Gifts that are close to your heartâ¦
The most special gifts are cards and letters that I receive from fans, that come in a week prior. I'm grateful to all the Instagram pages who make handwritten notes and cards, they do a lot of craft work to make me feel special. All the photo frames, diaries and cards that are couriered to me are all very special, thank you!
