Gigantic effigies of evil rakshasa, the sky lit up with fireworks and a burst of colours – that’s what my childhood memories of Dussehra are made of. But as I grew up, I realised that this festival is much more than that. It’s the victory of good over evil as the day marks the historic win of Lord Rama over the evil king Ravana. Most importantly, Dussehra, in its basic sense, is symbolic of burning the negativity within us and celebrating the goodness.
This year, the festival falls on October 25 and to mark the occasion, we’ve made a list of Dussehra wishes, quotes and messages that you can send to your loved ones to wish them on the festival.
