Mathura, located in the northern Indian state of Uttar Pradesh, is considered to be the best place to celebrate the colorful and lively festival of Holi. This is because Mathura is considered to be the birthplace of Lord Krishna, one of the most revered Hindu deities and the central figure in the Holi festival.

The Holi festival, also known as the "festival of colors," is celebrated on the full moon day of the Hindu lunar month of Phalguna (usually in March). It is a celebration of the victory of good over evil, and the arrival of spring. On this day, people take to the streets and splash each other with brightly colored powders and water, creating a vibrant and joyful atmosphere.

Happy Holi! In my hometown, almost every festival is celebrated one day before as the calendar is a bit different. So to all my mutuals for whom Holi is tomorrow, happy pre-Holi!

I will forever be jealous of people who celebrate Holi because I can never celebrate properly. The artificial colours cause a fever and nose allergy for me 😭 okay enough about me;

Happy festival of colours! May you all stay happy and your life remain colourful 🌺🧡

"James May in India" ♥︎ painting by me.

My first painting this year. I am looking forward watching James in India on Prime, which is out this Friday! ～♡ (Actually I have to wait until Saturday, because I'll be in the cinema watching "The Boy and the Heron" this Friday…hehe… ^◡^)

For this picture I thought I should draw James at the Holi Festival (seconds before he's completely covered in colours), as this was my favourite scene of the trailer.

I hope you like it!

'tis HOLI, 2k24!

26 MARCH 2024

I recall how thrilling festivals used to be in those days. "Those days" refers to the period before I turned 20.

This month, known as Faagun, brings us the liveliest celebration of the year, known as HOLI. To be honest, I hope no more gulal on my way till the next Holi because I celebrated Holi for the fourth time this month on March 25.😁

Speaking for myself, I was let down; unlike the beginning of the month, this time around, Holi didn't leave an impression on me. I'm studying for my master's degree in Lucknow. As the holidays got underway, I left for Varanasi, my hometown. I was really looking forward to the bustle and preparation that the market would bring.

Pitaji ordered me to dress in my old clothes because we were going shopping for Holi together, as we normally do. It is customary to do this. And as soon as I entered the market, I noticed that there were no colors in the surroundings—only darkness. I came to realize that things have changed. I remained shut as few part of the festival was yet to discover; when I went to my neighbors, I didn't find any gujhiya-making ceremonies. That sensation, that thrill, had disappeared. Moreover, I discovered that my mother has made less gujhiyas. The fading craze is the cause I found behind this stillness. People are moving away from their traditions as a result of advancements, which some refer to as conservatism. While we experimented with colors, clicking came first, to get aesthetic picture was the priority.

There were fewer organized Holi Milan Samaroh. The fact that they weren't sober is what most disappointed me. Does Holi occur for alcohol consumption? not at all! Adequate amount of alcohol consumption is sufficient to enjoy the festival without getting too wasted and endangering the safety of children and women, which could perhaps lead to a sprawl-brawl situation.

However, I noticed that instead of savoring the moment, 3/4 of the public was more interested in using their phones or going live on various social media platforms. This demonstrates our ignorance of our own civilization. More individuals played digital Holi this time around than actual colors, which were only in grams. Real colors were twenty grams, and digital colors were in Instagram. Every Rangotsav event, in my opinion, need to include an infotainment subprogram to raise awareness about the proper use of color in the surroundings. Perhaps most importantly, events ought to inform the public about the festival.

I glanced in both directions, and the scene that thrilled me the most was when an elderly woman took gulal and sprayed her husband with it. She then led him to their group, where around seven or eight elderly people were dancing and enjoying their thandai. 💕

People of my age did not enjoy Holi as much as group of kids and elderly audience did. While we are all educated, we are not socially literate. I think that as time goes on, young people like us will also come to appreciate the significance of the "not-so-cool world." It's critical to comprehend the concept of "parity" in both real life and textbooks. The reason that I discovered why young people are not interested is because of their daily life problems which have annoyed them. Almost every middle-aged heart found scrambling… NEVERMIND, I'm looking for more reasons, hope my bachelor in Psychology will come in handy!!!.

And I anticipate the fest-related frenzy and excitement.

I'm so excited that Holi is starting to become a more widely celebrated holiday here. A few years ago Diwali was the only South Asian holiday that had a town sponsored event but now Holi is becoming more known and there are at least three different events that I can think of happening soon!!!!

Holi is nothing but using an entire month's product in a day to remove the colors and still the colors not coming off!!!
