Kicking off the festive season in the Hindu calendar is the vibrant festival of Holi. In fact, once the New Year comes around, everyone is already discussing when Holi is and what their plans will be on the day. As per the traditional calendar, Holi marks the end of winter and heralds the arrival of spring. The eve of the festival is called Holika Dahan, which is generally on a full moon night in the month of March. It is marked by burning of bonfires, which is said to get rid of evil spirits. The day that follows it is the festival of Holi.
