After someone gives you wishes; in English we may respond as "Same to you". In Marathi we can say that तुला पण  (tulA paN ) or तुला पण शुभेच्छा ( tulA paN shubhechChA ) which literally means "to you as well" and "wishes to you as well".

Explanation for few words used above :-
1) To give greeting/wishes of particular occasion, sentence template is  "----च्या हार्दिक शुभेच्छा" (chyA hArdik shubhechChA ). You will use exact occasion / festival in beginning in pace of dashes.

e.g. If festival is दिवाळी(divALI) then "दिवाळीच्या हार्दिक शुभेच्छा" (divALIchyA hArdik shubhechChA)
If it is new year i.e. नवीन वर्ष (navIn varSha ) in Marathi. Then sentence will be नवीन वर्षाच्या  हार्दिक शुभेच्छा" (navIn varShAchyA  hArdik shubhechChA ).

2) As Marathi is originated from Sanskrit, the tradition of saying blessings in Sanskrit continues. So "जीवेत शरदः शतम"(jIvet sharadH shatam), यशस्वी भव(yashasvI bhava) etc. are actually Sanskrit sentences. But very naturally used in Marathi.

3) Indian culture is based on family and marriage system. A married lady whose husband is alive is called सौभाग्यवती(saubhAgyavatI). It is supposed to be auspicious that a lady remains सौभाग्यवती(saubhAgyavatI) (i.e. her husband is alive ) throughout her life. So generally elders bless a married woman with this blessing अखंडसौभाग्यवती भव (akhaMDasaubhAgyavatI bhava).
DO NOT TRY THIS UNLESS YOU ARE VERY SURE of ALL FACTS.
