Holi is one of the most important Hindu festivals. This festival is about letting go whatever has happened in your life or with anybody and enjoy life together with friends and family. Usually people play pranks on this festival just to colour each other.
Originally, Holi was considered to be the festival to celebrate good harvests and fertility of the land. There are several ancient stories behind Holi. A popular story says that Holi is remembered for the sacrifice of goddess Holika who burnt herself in fire on this day. Celebration of Holi festival is celebrated by performing Holi puja as per Hindu tradition and then Dhuleti, which is after Holi Puja, is considered to be the actual festival of colours.
I use to enjoy lot in this festival, since this is the only day where you see and get lot of unconditional love from your friends, families and relatives coming at your place to play with colours and water. I use to go out with my friends on the streets in a group and colour each other as well as any unknown person walking on the street at that day and have lots of fun. Apart from throwing colours on each other, traditional dances and delicious foods have always been the main attractions of Holi.
