Holi, the festival of colours, is celebrated by Hindus across India on the Phalguna Purnima of Phalguna Masam. In Hyderabad, a city known for its diverse cultures, the festival is celebrated with great enthusiasm through various events.
The city of Hyderabad was filled with vibrant colours as people came together to celebrate Holi. Traditionally, the festival involved playful splashing of colours, but concerns over harmful chemicals in traditional colours led to a shift towards eco-friendly celebrations.
One notable event during the festival was the Lathmar Holi Volume 6 held at Hitex Cloud Dining Arena. This event focused on sustainability by using organic colours made from natural sources like turmeric powder, fruit juices, and flower extracts. The event also featured mud Holi and rain dance, adding to the festive experience.
By choosing organic colours, residents of Hyderabad showed their commitment to reducing their ecological footprint and promoting a healthier planet. This shift towards eco-friendly celebrations not only preserves cultural traditions but also emphasizes the importance of environmental stewardship.
