Lighting the bonfire

Tree trunk seen as a manifestation of Holika

Offerings in the form of coconuts to the goddess

People seeking blessings from Holika

Adorning Holika effigy with all the markers of a married woman

Women taking out a procession carrying earthen pots

Seeking forgiveness from Holika

Collecting the ashes and scattering it around the household

Decorating homes for celebrating Holika Dahan
