Re: Eid for Hindus, Diwali for Muslims

@babloos

in south we call it deepavali not diwali

and vinayaka chavati for ganesh chaturthi…

diwali is very big in my state,and i agree about sweets with southie uncle,early in the morning lol
it’s celebrated in two days here naraka chaturthi and deepavali where we have puja to laskhmi devi on deepavali day , sweets and prasads are made offfer to god around 11-12pm items would be nowhere near what north indians make especially sweets. main thing here is to have deepas (lamp/candle) lighting entire house in the evening

ganesh chaturthi is big in my state too,can’t say same for other south indian state when i was in chennai i could hardly see people celebrating festival

How is the status of Holi in South. I think its also a northern festival.
