A Symbol of Admiration
Many buyers attribute their preference for Modi-branded Holi products to their admiration for the Prime Minister’s policies, especially his role in the construction of the grand Ram temple in Ayodhya.
“Modi Ji’s Hammer” Becomes a Festive Favorite
Another product gaining attention is the Modi-branded hammer, which some traders humorously associate with the BJP’s significant victories in the recent Lok Sabha and Delhi Assembly elections. Many have dubbed it “Modi ji’s hammer hitting Holi with force this year.”
Surging Demand May Lead to Shortages
Shopkeepers report that almost every second customer is specifically asking for a Modi pichkari or mask, leading to rapidly depleting stocks. If the trend continues, these festive items could soon be completely sold out.
The Spirit of Holi in Burhanpur
The enthusiasm for Holi in Burhanpur is unmistakable. This year, Modi pichkaris and masks have emerged as the festival’s most popular accessories.
Holi, the festival symbolizing the victory of good over evil, will be celebrated on March 14, with Holika Dahan taking place on the night of March 13. The festival draws from the legend of Prahlada, who remained devoted to Lord Vishnu despite his father, the demon king Hiranyakashyap, trying to suppress his faith—an eternal tale of righteousness prevailing over wrongdoing.
