There is a big story behind the celebration of Holi festival. There was a Prahlad (son of Hiranyakashyap) used to worship Lord Vishnu however he was forced to worship his own father but he denied. His father became very angry and decided to kill his own son by various means. One of the means was killing his son through his sister by sitting in the fire as she was booned to remain unharmed from fire. Unfortunately, due to the blessings of Lord Vishnu, Prahlad was saved however Holika (his Aunt) burned. From that time, people celebrate Holika Dahan to be healthy and happy by burning their sin. And, in the next morning, they celebrate colorful holi to show their happiness.

Holi

It is known as festival of colors. It is a very holy festival. This festival is celebrated for 2 days . This festival is celebrated because there is a pauranic reason behind it. That is the demon king Hiranykashyap was being prayed by everyone except his own son named Prahalad. Prahalad was a follower of Vishnu. That's why his father asked him many times to stop but every time he denied. Then his father asked his sister to sit in the fire with Prahalad. Holika was having a boon that fire couldn't burnt her.But Holika was dead in the fire and Prahalad remained safe. From that day Holi is being celebrated each year. First day people worship Holika and the second day they play with colours and water. They enjoy it very much. People eat different sweets, snacks, drinks etc.Really Holi is a very amazing festival.
