While Holi brings all the colors and joys to life, a man in Pune took to the street with a handwritten colorful poster, appealing to people to apply colors to him.
In a video uploaded by content creator Harshal Ghaware on Instagram, he is seen holding a poster saying, "Koi hume bhi to rang lagao" (someone put colors on me).
While he stood holding this poster on the busy FC Road in Pune, girls who were out for shopping on the street were seen putting colors on his face from the colors he had after reading the poster.
Harshal is a content creator from Pune who, at times, pranks or gets reactions from people, especially on FC Road. FC Road is a popular street in Pune, known for its vibrant mix of shops, cafes, restaurants, and cultural significance. It's a bustling hub, especially for students and young professionals.
Holi in India
Different regions of the nation celebrate Holi in different ways, but the basic idea of the holiday is essentially the same. India celebrates Holi, a colorful and exuberant event that heralds the entrance of spring. People exchange joyful food, dance, sing, and toss colored powder. It represents togetherness, love, the triumph of light, and the triumph of good over evil. Communities come together to celebrate and have fun during Holi.
Holika Dahan, which is celebrated with ceremonies around a campfire, represents the triumph of good over evil. Consensually playing Holi and using natural colors are suggested.
This year, Holi 2025 celebrations will occur on March 13 and 14, starting with Holika Dahan and followed by Dhulivandan when people play colors.
