The Unmissable Personalities at Diwali Parties – Which one are you?

10 may 2024

Tracing its origins back to the tales from the Ramayana, it’s said that the joyous citizens of Ayodhya celebrated Lord Rama’s return by illuminating the city with countless diyas. These glowing lights, a symbol of triumph over adversity, are a tradition that persists even today in the form of Diwali. From bustling urban neighbourhoods to serene villages, the soft luminescence of diyas, candles, and now, fairy lights, are a sight to behold.

Beyond the lights, the celebrations have evolved into a medley of rituals and traditions. Preparations often begin weeks in advance. Homes undergo thorough spring-cleaning, shopping lists are ticked off, and there’s a palpable excitement in the air. Vibrant rangolis adorn doorways, welcoming guests and the divine alike. The scent of incense wafts through homes, merging with the tantalising aroma of sweets like jalebis, laddoos, and savoury delights.
