Holi’s significance goes beyond just the play of colours—it heralds the beginning of spring, a time for renewal and growth. But it’s the palpable sense of community, the playful frolics with water balloons, the wielding of water guns, and the indulgence in mouth-watering festive treats that truly encapsulate the spirit of Holi. Rooted in ancient traditions, the festival opens with Holika Dahan, a symbolic bonfire representing the triumph of good over evil. This festive season attracts pilgrims and revelers alike to esteemed sacred sites, including Vrindavan, Mathura, and Barsana, where the air bristles with the excitement of the celebration.
As Bollywood celebrities join their fans in embracing the vibrancy of Holi, their heartfelt messages sweeten the collective consciousness and tighten the thread of shared joy and festivities. (With inputs from ANI)
