The festival of colours is here. People across India will celebrate Choti Holi, also known as Holika Dahan on March 17. In India, the Holi festivities begin with Holika Dahan on the previous night (Phalguna Purnima Tithi).

People gather in the neighbourhood to light a bonfire (referred to as Holika) to celebrate the triumph of good over evil.

The Holika Dahan ritual is usually performed during Pradosh Kaal but not when Bhadra Mukha prevails, according to the experts in the field. The ideal time to do the Holika Dahan is between – 09:06 pm to 10:16 pm as per Drik Panchang. The duration of the puja is around 1 hour 10 minutes.
