One of the major festivals of India, Holi is celebrated with enthusiasm and gaiety on the full moon day in the month of March.Holi festival is celebrated by people of different states with different traditions. But, what makes Holi so unique and special is the spirit of it which remains the same throughout the country and even across the globe, wherever it is celebrated.Holi is also called the Spring Festival - as it marks the arrival of spring the season of hope and joy. The gloom of the winter goes as Holi promises of bright summer days.Entire country wears a festive look when it is time for Holi celebration and market places get abuzz with activity. Womenfolk start early preparations for the holi festival as they cook loads of gujiya, mathri and papri for the family and also for the relatives. At some places specially in the north women also make papads and potato chips at this time.
