OMG, the coronavirus pandemic has made its comeback in China again. As different countries are imposing lockdown restrictions, it is obvious that the people of India may soon face the wrath of the fourth wave considering all places have been reopened at full-scale in recent times. As we celebrate Holi on 17th and 18th March 2022, it is important to understand the seriousness of playing Holi indoors itself after all no one wants to lose their loved ones or harm others just because of the festive times.
1) Your taste buds need a yumminess:
Even if you make the personal choice to stay at home and celebrate this Holi festive season, do not keep it dry and boring but instead cook some delicious Holi recipes to please your tongue and fill the stomach of your family members. Thandai, which is the milk-based Indian beverage is the best one that you can Google out or YouTube check to make at home and enjoy with your family. Barfis, Gujiyas, Puranpoli, Shankarpali are some of the other famous food items that are made during the Holi season.
2) Who is stopping you from interacting virtually?
Although there are no such lockdown restrictions in your area, even if you as a responsible citizen decided to stay back at home this Holi season, ensure that you can still be in touch with your friends and family members and perform virtual Holi events in a most amazing manner. You can set a realistic time frame of how you all can catch up in a virtual gathering and show what best you made at home during this Holi festival. Remember health is wealth, so if you can focus on fitness, healthy living, home-cooked foods as the theme of your virtual event along with adding some colorful dresses and arranging your surroundings in a vibrant manner, then nothing like it.
3) Reading books and watching movies on Holi are also good ideas:
Although extroverted people maybe like what is this – when you tell this idea, reading content on why Holi is celebrated and how it adds value to people’s lives every year can actually bring about a good change in your life as well. You can watch out some classic movies on Holi like Baghban, Sholay, Mohabbatein among others with your friends and family at home itself and rejuvenate the Holi vibes whenever your favorite song plays on the screen.
