Diyas
Diyas and candles are popular house adornments during Diwali. The lighting of oil lamps represents the joy of the people living on earth, making the gods aware of their plentiful state.
Being a religious holiday, some homes decide to adopt a vegetarian diet on Deepavali day. Savoury munchies like muruku, seeval, omapodi and ribbon pakora are the perfect accompaniment to the late night Deepavali chatter. Meanwhile, sweets like coconut candy, palkova, jilebi and various others see us with the incorrigible sweet tooth go crazy throughout the day.
