The spring festival, popularly known as Pohela Phalgun amongst Bangalis takes place on the first day of spring is a particularly vibrant event showcasing the riot of colours and joyousness the season brings along with it. It is not an official holiday for us, but that does not keep us from celebrating the rebirth of nature. Wearing different hues of yellow and orange, we welcome the season by dancing and singing with immense zeal and laughter.
