#meco6900 Holi, the “Festival of Colours”, is a celebration of love, friendship, and harmony of Hindu.

#meco6900 As part of the Indian students who reside in the Sancta Sophia College, Vanshika Singhgupta and Bhavya Tyagi, have held the “Holi Hour” on the 10th of April to make students both from India and different countries enjoying this celebration this year.

#meco6900 “Come shake a leg to dance-worthy Bolly and English tunes, as you play with herbal colours and water balloons!” Said Vanshika.

#meco6900 Another organizer, Bhavya, has made the notice for the coming students, said: “Apply some oil, like coconut oil, to your hair and exposed parts of the body so you can wash off the colours easily. Those with longer hair, we recommend you tie your hair before you come!”

#meco6900 “And oh, by the way, wear something you don’t mind getting colours on and bring your towels!” The event has 19 residents to attend, with all of them having the colorful herbal powder on their bodies and were as joyful as they can be.

#meco6900 Finding origin in the divine love story of Lord Krishna and his lover Radha, Holi has come to be a celebration of every kind of relationship. The vibrant colours also represent renewal and rejuvenation, marking the arrival of spring.

#meco6900 Lost friendships are recovered, and broken bonds are mended. The act of smearing colours on each other is an invitation to forgo personal resentments and ill feelings.

#meco6900 The spirit of Holi celebrates making the most of every emotion in life as symbolised by the diversity of the colours.
