Dhallywood's brightest star, Pori Moni is well known for throwing some of the most fabulous birthday parties, mostly during her own birthday on October 24. 

Even though the actress is currently taking a break from showbiz, to enjoy the wonders of motherhood, fans are still clamouring to see how the star will celebrate her birthday this year.

In a candid conversation with The Daily Star, Pori Moni shared her plans for her birthday, talked about her son Rajya, and much more.

Ever since the two of you got married, Sariful Razz has been on quite the run of success with his films. How do you feel about it?

Razz's success means the world to me. I can't describe how proud I am of my husband. In some ways, I am like a 'Royal Queen', who is enjoying the success of their handsome king. I cannot live without my King, and his success gives me great joy. I am truly grateful to Allah for blessing us with such good fortunes.

A few days back, you gifted yourself an 'iPhone' as an advance birthday gift. Could you tell us the reason behind this sudden surprise for yourself?

I love surprising myself and giving myself gifts. This is my life and I need to provide myself with things that bring me joy and make me feel good.

Was 2022 special for you?

This year has been really special for me. I got to experience motherhood for the first time, being blessed with a beautiful baby boy in the process. At the same time, Razz's films became a supershit, causing his popularity to skyrocket. What more could I have asked for this year?

Your birthday is on October 24. Why do you usually opt for a grand celebration on your birthday? 

I love celebrating birthdays, as it's something that is really close to my heart. Some people like to sleep on their birthday, while others simply forget about it. However, I feel like birthdays only come once a year and thus they should be celebrated in a grand manner. One needs to make it as memorable as they can.

So, can we expect a grand celebration for your birthday this year?

Want to spend time with my son, won’t return to acting at the moment: Pori Moni

In the past, I used to cut my birthday cake with my Nanu. However, now I will get to celebrate it with three people: my Nanu, Razz, and Rajya. I will cut the cake while holding Rajya's hand and together the four of us will make it a memorable day.

What type of gift would make you happy on your birthday?

Honestly, I don't expect anything from anyone on my special day. I just want everyone's love and blessings, that's all. However, if they still want to give me gifts they can give me flowers and books as presents. I would really appreciate that.

Your birthday celebrations usually have a theme based around a colour. Is there any specific reason why you choose to go with a colour-based theme?

There is no particular reason. I simply choose the colour which I like and then I tell everyone to dress in that colour. This time, I will be doing something with white and there will also be a combination of watercolours.
