Holika Dahan

Hindu festival

Holika Dahan, rendered Holika Dahanam in Sanskrit, is a Hindu occasion that celebrates the legend Holika and Prahalad. Holika thought that she could use her boon(that fire cannot destroy her) to kill her nephew Prahlad and sat with him in the bonfire. However, she got burnt herself and Prahlad was saved. It precedes the occasion of Holi, the festival of colours, which celebrates the spring season.
