In Holi, people drink bhang which is an alcoholic drink made with rosewater and dried fruits. Sweet dumplings filled with khoya and dried fruits called gujjias are served as a dessert. In durga puja, bhog is given on every day of the puja and then during diwali people celebrate it with sweets. There are so many more festivals and so much more that people actually do.
Which festival do you enjoy the most?
I love Holi the most. This is the festival where people color each other and forget about any clashes and enjoy with each other. Friends come together and dance and throw colored water at each other and it is fun!! Later eating the gujiya is amazing.
Do you think festivals are important for the society?
I think definitely yes, festivals are surely the binding force for the society. In lives of people who are truly dissatisfied, festivals bring in the hope of something good and something new. Most people forget their issues and come together to celebrate a festival. Even more, with prayers being associated with each of the festivals, they bring about so much positivity in life.
