Feeling Lucky?Festival of Colours is here
I have been feeling lucky since today morning! I have been wondering if today is something special, but is today special?
Yes, today on the 10th Of March 2020 is the occasion of Holi(Holi is a festival, it is spelt Holi only not Holy).This festival is also known as Festival of Colours. It is a great festival celebrated in India.There are many festivals that have originated from India. The two main of them include Holi(A two day festival) and Diwali(A five day festival also known as Deepawali)
Holi is a two day festival, the first day(on 9th March as of 2020) is also known as the day of Holika or Holika Dahan. The second day(on 10th March as of 2020) is also known as Dhulende Holi.
On the first day, a bonfire(which also has red clothes, maize or wheat crops,wood and diyas(small lamps native to India.)) is burnt at night!
On the second day, people play with natural powder colours, coloured water and coloured smoke.If someone is in India on this day then even if you just take a step out of your home your clothes will get coloured!
Happy holi everyone!
