Diwali is a five-day festival that starts on Dhanteras. On Dhanteras, people purchase jewellery or utensils and worship the Gods. The second day is called Naraka Chaturdashi. It is also known as Chhoti Diwali, or Small Diwali.

The third day of Diwali is the main day of the celebrations. People worship Lord Ganesha and Goddess Lakshmi on this day, offering prayers to bless them with wealth and prosperity.

The fourth day of Diwali is devoted to Govardhan Puja. The fifth day is called Bhai Dooj. On this day, sisters pray for their brothers to have long and happy lives by performing the Tika ceremony, and brothers give gifts to their sisters in return.

Just saw all these posts on X! BCCI's poster was beautiful, but I wish they'd included more regional languages in their greeting. India is so diverse after all.

Nice to see our cricket heroes celebrating with the nation. But honestly, I'd love to see them do more for underprivileged children during festivals. That would be real Diwali spirit!
