Millions of Indians are celebrating Holi - the festival of colours - amid a sharp dip in Covid-19 cases in the country.
The festival saw restricted celebrations last year due to the pandemic.
Holi marks the last full-moon day of the lunar month. It's a time of great cheer and fun as people smear bright colours on each other. It also symbolises new beginnings.
During the festival, participants sing, dance and shower each other with flower petals and brightly colored powders of pink, yellow, blue and green.
