Lohri Wallpapers

Lohri is a Punjabi winter harvest festival celebrated on January 13, primarily in Punjab, Haryana, Himachal Pradesh, and Delhi. It marks the end of winter and the beginning of longer days. Families gather around bonfires, throw sesame seeds, jaggery, peanuts, and popcorn into the flames, and perform the traditional Bhangra and Gidda dances. The festival holds special significance for newlyweds and families with newborn children, who celebrate their first Lohri with great enthusiasm. The bonfire symbolizes Agni, the fire god, and offerings are made to seek blessings for prosperity. Lohri is closely associated with the tale of Dulla Bhatti, a Robin Hood-like figure from Punjab. The festival brings communities together in celebration of agriculture, warmth, and togetherness during the coldest month of the year.
