Lohri is celebrated with a bonfire and singing and dancing. It is to mark the beginning of harvest and the shortest day of the year…here is a quick look into Lohri celebrations in India.
The same day, in different parts of India, there are festivities – Pongal, Sankranti.
Here you will see the bonfire and the Bhangra (dance). Enjoy!
How about a video showing kite flying on Makarsankranti in Gujarat / Western India? With families and friends gathered on terraces to fly kites, listening to blaring bollywood songs and having a picnic of sorts, it is a sight to behold, not to mention the colorful skyscape and triumphant shouts of ‘kaati hai, kaati hai’ signalling victory in a war of kites in the sky.
Aw, I’m filled with nostalgia………
Balle balle! 🙂
