For people celebrating it far from home, Diwali is a wave of nostalgia that sweeps over us, bringing memories of home — laughter, the smell of sweets, and the glow of lights illuminating every corner of the house.
Away from our families, the festive spirit feels different, and we reminisce of the joy of bursting crackers with loved ones.
Though we may celebrate in a different place, we find ways to recreate those cherished moments.
Found this sentimental?
Well, no more.
A video circulating on social platforms will make you gasp and laugh at the way these engineering students thought of celebrating Diwali, the Elon Musk way.
In the video, a group of these students, allegedly from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Dhanbad, light up an explosive Diwali cracker and then cover it with a plastic drum. While viewers can anticipate some untoward incident about to happen, there is a "boom" and the drum launches itself into the air reaching the full height of the four-storeyed boys' hostel, while the boys shout in glee.
This is what we call embracing the beauty of Diwali in their own way as long as, of course, no one is harmed.
