Holi is one of the major Hindu festivals celebrated in India after Diwali. According to the lunar calendar, this festival of colors is celebrated on the full moon day in the month of Phalgun. Falgun also means spring. That’s why it is also called Vasantotsav. Holika Dahan is celebrated on the full moon day a day before Holi. On this day, a bonfire is organized and people pray for good fortune and give thanks for a bountiful harvest.
For this reason, homemade dishes, gujiyas, wheat stalks, and cow dung cakes are offered in the fire. People pray for the burning of demons and the victory of good over evil on this day. The next day Dhulandi or Rang is played. It’s about celebrating life and having fun with each other. Holi is celebrated with great pomp all over the country, but in some places, Holi is really special.
