HAPPY LOHRI 2026 FLY BIG KITES 🪁 (AKASHVLOG_WORLDWIDE)

1. The Agricultural Harvest 🌾
Lohri is primarily a harvest festival. For the farmers of Punjab, it is a time to offer thanks for the Rabi crops (winter crops) like wheat and mustard. It also marks the peak of the sugarcane harvest, which is why sweets made from jaggery (gur) are so central to the celebration. 
2. The Legend of Dulla Bhatti 👤
No Lohri is complete without the folk songs of Dulla Bhatti, a legendary hero from the Mughal era. Known as the "Robin Hood of Punjab," he famously rescued young girls from being sold into slavery and arranged their marriages. To this day, children go door-to-door singing "Sundar Mundariye" to honor his bravery. 
3. The Sacred Bonfire 🔥
The heart of the celebration happens at night when communities gather around a massive bonfire. People perform the energetic Bhangra and Giddha dances and toss offerings like sesame seeds (til), peanuts, and popcorn into the flames as a prayer for prosperity.
