Great excitement can be seen in people on the next day when it is
actually the time for the play of colors. Shops and offices remain
closed for the day and people get all the time to get crazy and whacky.
Bright colors of gulal and abeer fill the air and people take turns in
pouring color water over each other. Children take special delight in
spraying colors on one another with their pichkaris and throwing water
balloons and passersby. Women and senior citizen form groups called
tolis and move in colonies – applying colors and exchanging greetings.
Songs, dance on the rhythm of dholak and mouthwatering Holi delicacies
are the other highlights of the day.
