The following are some of my best memories from last year. It was during my birthday, also when we celebrate Makar Sakaranti here in North India along with the kite festival. The kite flying commences a few days before 14th of January.
What can you see?
Well the mornings are full of excitement and chances are you will wake up with beats of Bollywood music playing in your neighbours home. As soon as you are on the terrace, the first thing you will see is everybody going bonkers over something in sky... Wait, what are those..?
KITES!!
Yep. It's like creatures from the outer space have taken over Earth. Hahah, okay I won't be too dramatic. It's actually a very happy atmosphere, everyone has to win the kite fight. And me.. well I am a nice spectator as I don't know anything about kite flying. What I do know is, There are lots of delicious stuff you can find in every home!
I got this shot of me with the help of @ayushijain!
I clicked some images with my camera and phone and I was quite happy with the results, although they were nowhere near to what I could see in person :)
Here we were preparing the lantern for releasing it along with the other ones (as you can see above also). I wished for a year full of excitement and new adventures with loads of happiness while doing so <3
We had an awesome bonfire after all of this. Some of my friends prepared dinner while me and one of my other friend took charge of the bonfire along with some specials ;)
I remember this day! lady didn't show me her face coz it was all cake 😂

Kite festival is one of the most colorful celebrations here in Lahore too and we really enjoy it. However, there have been bans on it from govt from time to time because it was dangerous for the people specially those traveling on motorcycles. Now, the govt is once again planning to remove ban from this festival called Jashn e Baharan and I'm unable to understand was the govt right then or now. Funny isn't it? :) Perhaps, Hasrat Mohani had said these verses when he was encountered with a similar situation:
Very well written post @aishwarya. The photos, videos and specially the persons in both of them are looking very beautiful. ;)
Steem On!

Oh I didn't know that!
Yeah tell me about it.. Same thing happened here, I don't think there was a ban as such but people do get injured because of this.
It is kinda funny yes..! Can you explain me the meaning of those verses?
Thank you so much for your thoughts <3 You are too kind!
