The very mention of Diwali brings back a flood of fond memories: the crisp, slightly chilly weather, beautifully decorated shops and homes, the mesmerising glow of colourful diyas, vibrant rangolis, the irresistible aroma of sweets wafting through the air, the sound of joyous laughter and firecrackers, the scent of incense, the touch of traditional clothing, and the palpable sense of festivity and togetherness. For me, Diwali is not just a festival; it’s an experience, a tradition, and a celebration that holds a special place in my heart. In this blog, I’d like to share why I love Diwali and its profound significance in Indian and Hindu culture.
