Saturday, 21st March 2015, Shree Lakhsmi Narayan Temple, Kuala Lumpur–Pioneered by the SDS Youth Group of the Shree Lakshmi Narayan Temple, the SDS Holi Festival Malaysia is an annual event that celebrates the illustrious and colourful festival of Holi in Malaysia. Open to the public, it draws larger crowds every year to join in on the festivities.
Holi, a spring festival also known as the festival of colours, is anancient religious Hindu festival which has grown to be quite popular with Hindus and even non-Hindus across South Asia and many other communities around the globe. The celebration invites a feeling of togetherness and a sense of community among people of different backgrounds, who join together in enjoyment and positivity.
At the Shree Lakshmi Narayan Temple, Holi has been celebrated with great gusto for the past ten years, with an atmosphere so vibrant that the experience itself will leave all attendees in awe.It isone of scintillating fun, and is celebrated on a grand scale as everyone in sight is set in motionwith coloured powder and colour-infused water in hand, only to be watered down by playful water guns or pails of water.
Last year, the event attracted a crowd of up to 2500 people from 45 different countries, who braved the hot sun in the long queue just to be a part of this exciting and vibrant celebration. As for this year, the organising committee targets an audience of 3000 people. The objective, as always, is to unite people of all cultures and walks of life to take part in this colourful event to promote comradery and instil a community feel amongst those attending.
The event is self-funded by the SDS Youth and supported by donors, members of the community and personal friends. Those in attendance will be treated to endless choices of North Indian food to feast on at the food stalls, with many favourite Indian street specialities such as Vada Pav, Ice Gola, Thandai, Jal Jeera, Jalebi and much more. It will be a momentous occasion where all can join in the celebration, with good music, food, drinks and an array of colours.
