All regardless of their caste, color or creed celebrate the festival of Holi that brings together everyone and makes them one. Smothered with colors, soaking wet with dyed water and filled with joy, everyone celebrates festival of colors- Holi with great gusto. This festival makes everyone feel equal and the all inequality flows away with the colored water.
Holi Milan
When people once again come together as one and leave behind old rivalries and rows, the magic of ‘Holi Milan’ conjures up love and brotherhood. This institution transforms many foes into friends. People smear colors-gulal and embrace each other as they greet Happy Holi.
Conventionally, on the day of Holi people drop by their relatives and friends. They exchange sweets and smother each other with colored powder-gulal. Every house has a plate- thali all set with sweet meats and tilak to welcome the visitors. People greet each other by applying tilak on the other person’s forehead, they then offer sweets and embrace one another by extending the best wishes of Holi.
Holi Convene- Holi Samaroh
Various clubs and social bodies also organize the Holi Samarohs on the day of Holi festival in their community or society. These events help people to get together and celebrate in the spirit of oneness. The samarohs also feature cultural shows to entertain the people and thereby give them a chance to know each other better.
Festivals like Holi are the time when everyone wants to be close to their nearest and dearest ones. Wishing by the way of greeting cards and Holi messages are also great ways to greet Happy Holi.
