Happy Holi - wallpaper

Happy Holi wallpaper
Holi 14, originally uploaded by a2zindianews.

This wallpaper shows Krishna and Radha, as they are often portrayed in Indian calendar art. It has the Hindi words 'Holi ki shubh kaamnaein' meaning 'Best wishes for Holi' inscribed on it. It is customary for many people to buy and sell greeting cards like this during the celebrations.

Holi is traditionally celebrated at the end of the winter season on the last full moon day (Phalgun Purnima) of the lunar month Phalguna (February/March), which can fall in late February or early March. In 2009, Holi (Dhulandi) was on March 11 and Holika Dahan was on March 10.
