Diwali is the celebration of colours and lights. Popularly known and referred to as the ‘festival of lights’, Diwali is a form of celebration which is popular among Hindu and Jain followers.
Diwali is a five-day celebration festival, during which Hindus clean their homes and wear colourful outfits. Spiritually, it signifies the victory of good versus evil.
