As napali I can say it’s very fun and exciting
Yes bro
Why bro
@@sauravkumar-js2ny idiot 🤣🤣🤣
We needs this as a national holiday in America. It looks so fun
aq1
we have a color run
No
Who cleans up the tons of powder in hundreds of cities afterwards?
Some churches don't even let people throw confetti or rice anymore because of clean-up costs. ;-)
Not really. Unless the colors are natural ( which are too expensive ) it's bad for the environment, skin and animals. Why not just go to a pub ?
I'll add this on my bucketlist😉
If you want to celebrate it,please don't just do it anywhere
A lot of places it is celebrated aggressively n you'll hate it.
I recommend you to have a milennial indian frnd.
He will search a farmhouse/club wherein holi parties are organised n tickets are sold.Thats where it is done grand n soberly
Me too!!
I'm glad they posted this video. I've been searching for this video. Holi festival looks fun.
they like to dring banng witch contains weed. sounds good to me, i want to drink weed

Colors, life, spring and new birth with myself this New Years during quarantine in my nyc apt

When in India (and around/before date of holi),search for tickets for holi parties in farmhouses in delhi mumbai bangalore gurgaon etc.
If you go to Trinidad you'll not be alone.. lots of Afro Indians celebrate it.

Don't Hindus in Bangladesh celebrate it?🤔
@@lifeofsahani yes we do! Its pretty fun! The entire moholla participates!
@Ashish Rajput very correct
⁰0⁰
@@saumilichakraborty5357 but not with that much fun as Indians,i guess cuz I never found any of my Hindu friends celebrating holi
The festival of oldest religion in the world sanatan dharma 🔥 more than 10,000+ years
And it's celebrated in India and Nepal.
its also celebrated in other countries
Iniĺu
I think it’s celebrated all over south Asia as well a south east Asia
Don't generalize India its not part of India as a whole.
@@prajullas ues it is. It comes from an old Hindu myth
the music is a banger
Flute bhangra
💎🕉️💎🇮🇳💎 Jai Hind. Har Har Mahadev.
That looks amazing! It looks like so much fun! I have asthma though and all that powder would really hurt to breathe in :(
No
It's made of flower petals so it won't. I have asthama too but I celebrate every year like crazy.
@@nikhiltiwari6923 maybe the one you use are made of flower petals. But gulal everywhere else is powder unless it's herbal gulal which is very expensive. I won't recommend it for asthama patients.
But we also play wet holi, which is colour mixed in water so I guess that won't be a problem. But it may take weeks to get rid of colour. 😂
welcome to india..
geust are god to us..
I’m gonna do this tomorrow at school. On March 5th. at Arahoe School.
Nice and then get suspended
Music is really desi.. different. Love it
Happy Holi everyone!🧡💛💚💙💜💗🌷💐
Thank you :)
Some cult explodes RDX , and some explode colors
😂😂😂
😆
Can't we people just celebrate and be happy with our cultures? Is it also customary to harass the entire people from a particular religion just because of a few?
I would like to go there!!!!!!❤️
it's September and i m already waiting for March. the month of Holi
We're glad you enjoy it as much as we do!
Diwali is real soon😁
Corona will spoil it😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Great coverage! Great music and vibrations
I’ve always wanted to play Holi but my parents never allowed me to:(
Very sad
L parents. You have to live/demand your right to celebrate Dharma & Holi
@@cerveauy8782 yea tbh😭maybe i'll try to play this year
You should take your own decision and be independent
@@Ssc_aspira yea but its a bit hard since i’m still a kid.. but i’m moving out this year so hopefully i’ll have a chance!
Holi is best
이게 현실적인 인도축제다..
I went to the Holi Festival @ my school in Catonsville Community College in Baltimore Maryland I enjoy myself last week I love Indian Culture🇮🇳🇮🇳
Holi is the grand culmination of the month long celebrations of the Spring AKA Vasant in which Kamdeva - God Of Love & Love, is the main theme, who has been replaced by Krishna now
Finally you gave up on the all caps policy. Please, do that with all of your videos. It's much easier to read than the all caps thing.
The thing is, the title of something, a video, or document or anything, is supposed to be capitalized, that way it looks better, formal and proper. So, I guess English isn't your main language, so it's better not to say that.
I wasn't talking about the title. I was talking about the written information inside the video. NatGeo always types the info in caps, which becomes difficult to read.
not only in India and Nepal also in my country
Yup!!
Ruth Mitt england
@@yadigk5957 Um, it's only due to Indian citizens living there, or those of Indian origin so this is celebrated by Indian people only
@@ananasbanana r u mad nepal has 82% hindus so its common to celebrate holi there
Woww.looks fun.i'll add this to my bucket list^_^
Happy Holi everyone!
Wow incredible.
🙏💙🌍
It looks lit
Any #Indiansquad here
This festival is just ❤
It was a indian mosh pit
Lol sometimes it seems but it ain't that ..
Kbc 2000 👍

The great festival of colours
This level of celebrations take place in only few states of India. Majority of the people here celebrate holi only by worshipping fire and lord Vishnu. But diwali is celebrated countrywide with even more enthusiasm, especially in Northern India.
Karan Vir Singh South Indian also celebrate holy as much as north India, may be you are not aware .. few places in Karnataka, it's celebrated for continuous 7 days
But let's be honest, Holi is way more fun
In which city is this located please?
few states? lol...
we norteasterns also celebrate holi
Yeah...but then again...those "few" states" alone account for literally Hundreds of Millions of poeple. #LOL
But...The festival is infact now gaining widespread popularity even in places in India, where it traditionally was NOT celebrated with such gusto.
Guys did you know that if you search holi on google and you click the three triangle, you will splash your google results with paint and if you want to clean up you will just click the litle water icon
उत्सव खुशियाँ लाता है।
0:50 that was the real Red Sea
lol
This looks amazing but this song is amazing
India isn't a s##t country. Its just that we are a country of 1 billion people with very diverse culture. Hopefully, we will catch up with you western countries in terms of quality and infrastructure. all these problems can be eradicated by education. If enough of our people are liberated from poverty by education, then that day isn't far away where our country will join the list of developed nation!
Saurabh Yadav I believe it is coming soon, india has a good amount of doctors, psychologist and engineers and together they can shape the population
Lmao I agree with you but the videos about Holi
China is a country with over 1 billion people and a diverse culture yet they're one of the biggest modern leaders in infrastructure and design. India is so rooted in both religion, and deep culture and history it's traditionalistic system puts them at claw when compared to other third world countries. Along with India's government which is failing to support such a vast country, india will buckle under itself.
"With very diverse culture"
Well.. a country which has a low level of tolerancy is dont have many diversity. That's what made them intolerance.
If india is so diverse, then how about the intolerance thing? Muslim, black people, judge people based on the skin color, gender, race.
Saurabh Yadav well, developed countries have many pathalogical problems of it's own. But India has a very long way to go to being a country with good enough living conditions. I live in a chawl in Mumbai with poor infrastructure all around and the authority in charge of these chawls don't do much to help us residents in terms of the water supply problem, decent enough sanitation and roadworks. Gratefully I am not born in a slum where conditions are a great notch worse than in the chawls here. It will probably take half a century or even a century long for India to become tremendously clean and decent enough for living. But i also notice that India is becoming very capitalistic and seems to be copying the capitalistic US and other such western countries. We ignore the suicides of the farmers in Maharashtra but would have Modi gladly ink the thousands of crores deal with Japan for a fucking bullet train to connect the city of Mumbai and Ahmedabad. Then there was the stupid demonitisation move which actually resulted in the deaths of so many people. It was a thoroughly botched implementation which affected the poor people terribly even as the rich and the privileged lauded the unnecessary move.
That looks like fun
I once did this at my school because someone was Indian and came to the school but it rained
So you didn't go?
If u wouldve gone,it wouldve been MORE grand
Punjabi music is soo lit !!
It's not Punjabi music
Anyone in Holi 2019

Happy birthday happy birthday happy birthday happy birthday happy birthday happy birthday happy birthday happy birthday happy birthday happy birthday happy birthday happy birthday happy birthday happy birthday happy birthday happy birthday happy birthday happy birthday happy birthday happy birthday happy birthday happy birthday
It would be lovely If the background music would be Holi songs)
What a beautiful expressions 😍 ❤️ namaste 👌 🙏 🎉🎉🎉😂
Looks like their having a blast
it's a dream to visit this festival but damn if i inhaled i think i'll die from suffocation with all that powder thrown at me
donttouchmeim steril lol if sm1 is using colour on ur face you have to close your eyes and stop inhaling for some time
1.3 billion people didn't die and you will. Idiot. Think harder.
No you don't but will be a little bit overwhelming😄
Sad for you😂
I learned about holi festival in my school
great
EDUCACIÓN CULTURAL Y ARTÍSTICA MI LIKE
I love Holi
😀👋❤️ good after noon friends happy 😀 holi ❤️💚💚🧡🧡
The beat 😍😍
Happy holi
Fastive of Spring
I see. Even National Geographic can't afford the authentic background score for its shows.
You can only hope all that powder has a fragrance to it.
Cleat Dog You can only hope that the Guns in your country aren't loaded.
@@khushboodhingra5356 Gun deaths are commonly in self defense, guns are good.
Powder is made of flower petals. It smells amazing.
@@jerryseinfield6884 I agree. Guns are good. Atleast in country like India where police is corrupt, lazy & can't react on time.
Not wishing to be the fly in the ointment, but has anyone researched what breathing in all that coloured powder clouding the streets does to one's lungs?
Lovely colours and all, and quite the celebration, but those clouds of powder being breathed in........
Actually the real Holi in villages is played with natural colours and it's lasts only for some time so there is no serious damage to worry about 🙂. And after breathing the pollution that we have in the atmosphere it is almost harmless. It's Holi today so happy holi.
@@tuttut12 Well, that's good to hear!!
@@WJRHalyn-jw2ho glad to know
Then don’t come!! It’s better that exhaust u breath Daily!!
@@101Queenisis Whoa! Just asking, is all.
BTW, it appears you meant to spell "than" instead of "that", and "breathe" instead of "breath". Never mind about the "u" for "you"... ;-)
It looks cool
Happy Holi to every hindu worldwide
That looks like fun!
Very colorful. Will Holi happen in 2021
Every year in each part of india in March month date you can check on google
Holi 2021! Enjoy NY
amazing
It's a 5000 year old Hindu festival, so please stop appropriation of other cultures.
Play only balam pichkari..lmao
a lot of colors in one place haha
2x speed LMAO
You're right... just did that and it was LMFAO...
In case anyone's wondering, most of the dyes come from plants. Almost none of this is actually paint.
It looks like so much fun, but doesn’t it get in your eyes? I’d imagine it would. Doesn’t it hurt???
No it doesn't hurt !and this festival is today so happy holi i am going to play
Holi❤️
Bruh the teacher made us watch this at school
Awesome
To all the people other than india you gotta go there once in a while on holi in VRINDAVAN (goto place for holi celebration) but yeah try to be with someone in boys you’ll always find some bad boys trying to colour you
what is the music?
Happy Holi 2024⚡️🤴🏽🕉🔺➕
ok but the song slaps
Very nice holi colour
It's our Rave Party ... Huge events are organised for holi we dance , play, colour our friends.But in sophisticated way unlike the one shown in video
It is not a rave party.
Honestly if you are playing HOLI in a sophisticated way, you aren't playing it properly. BTW it's not a rave party, it has got a story to it, a meaning to it
cok guzel ya
Does the powder get into your eyes?
Eco friendly
It's herbal colour made by flower and cornflour
Nice
Of course the only music they know is bhangra. Lol
