Diwali, or Deepawali, is one of the most important Hindu festivals, celebrated with great enthusiasm and grandeur across India. During this time, homes are beautifully decorated with diyas, rangoli, and twinkling lights. The celebrations span five days, each dedicated to unique rituals and traditions.
Narak Chaturdashi, also known as Choti Diwali or Kali Chaudas, is observed a day before Diwali. It commemorates Lord Krishna’s victory over the demon Narakasura, symbolizing the triumph of good over evil. On this day, homes are illuminated, and rituals are performed for spiritual purification. In 2025, Narak Chaturdashi falls on Monday, October 20.
