6. Talk about importance of Holi
Time and again, it is important to discuss our traditions and re-establish the reason why grand festivals like Holi exist.

Mention the credible source too, if possible.

Unpopular opinions sell like hot cakes on social media. Each one of us has them, but not everyone is confident enough to share them. Well, success favours the brave-hearted.
