Дивали — это важный семейный праздник в индуистском календаре, также известный как «Фестиваль огней». Он празднует победу «добра» над «злом» с помощью специальных огней («дия») и свечей. Праздник длится пять дней и обычно отмечается в октябре или ноябре в начале индуистского Нового года. Во время Дивали люди убирают свои дома, надевают красочную одежду, празднуют со своими семьями дома и едят особые блюда.
