Sheel Verma recalls the excitement of going back to school after summer vacation

Actor Sheel Verma reminisces about childhood summer breaks, school excitement, and cherished memories of playing and preparing for a new academic year.

"The simple act of walking to school with my friends in the rain was truly one of the happiest moments. - Sheel Verma"

Mumbai, June 9

As the summer vacations are on, we can all relate to the excitement of going back to school after enjoying a long school summer break.

Actor Sheel Verma, who is presently seen as Jaiveer in the show "Badi Haveli Ki Chhoti Thakurain" also reminisced about his heartwarming memories from his cherished childhood.

Recalling the good old days, Sheel said, “I still remember playing cricket during summer vacations. We’d play until sunset, and even then, it was hard to stop. My mother would often have to call me multiple times before I finally dragged myself home, dusty and happy."

"Me and my cousins would explore hidden nooks and crannies in the neighborhood, climb trees, and invent our own games. Amidst all this fun, I would usually start doing my vacation homework only when the summer break was about to end," he added.

However, summer is more than just a break from school and studies, it also means preparing for another academic year. “As soon as June arrived, there was a different excitement in the air. I used to go shopping with my father to buy a new tiffin box, school uniform and books, raincoat, and rainy footwear," Sheel stated.

The actor further shared that despite being a little upset about the holidays being over, returning to school brought a lot of joy as it meant -

meeting friends after a long time, and of course, showing off new stationery. “The simple act of walking to school with my friends in the rain was truly one of the happiest moments. Even today, when I think of them, it brings a wide smile to my face. If I could go back and relive those days, I would, with all my heart.”

"Badi Haveli Ki Chhoti Thakurain" airs from Monday to Saturday at 9:00 pm on Shemaroo Umang.

Ah, this brings back so many memories! 😊 I remember the thrill of getting new notebooks and covering them with brown paper. The smell of new books and freshly sharpened pencils was just magical. Sheel's description is so relatable - especially the part about doing homework at the last minute!

Cricket matches that would go on till evening, mangoes straight from the tree, and then the excitement of new school shoes - this article captures the essence of Indian childhood perfectly. Though I wonder if today's kids glued to their phones experience this same joy?

The part about walking to school in the rain with friends hit me right in the feels! 🌧️ We used to make paper boats and race them in the rainwater. But honestly, I don't miss the last-minute homework panic at all!

While the nostalgia is nice, let's not romanticize everything. Many children don't get to enjoy carefree vacations - some help with family work or don't have resources for new uniforms. We should remember that childhood experiences vary across economic backgrounds.

My favorite part was getting to choose new pencil boxes with fancy gadgets! The ones with compass, protractor and secret compartments felt like treasure chests. This article makes me want to call up my childhood friends right now ❤️

Totally agree with Sheel! But I wish the article had mentioned how we'd beg our parents for those expensive branded school bags that everyone wanted. The first day with new bag and shoes - nothing could beat that feeling of being the 'cool kid' in class! 😎
