Holika Dahan Timings 2017:

Indians across the world are gearing up for the vibrant and joyous festival of Holi which falls on March 12 according to the Gregorian calendar. Going by the Hindu Lunar calendar, Holika Dahan concurs with the full moon day in the month of Phalguna, a day which is called Phalguna Purnima. The emphasis of Holi rituals is on the burning of the demoness Holika. People in the neighborhood collectively organize a bonfire (referred to as the Holika Dahan) to mark the victory of good over the evil. The Dahan is usually performed during the Pradosh Kaal (which starts after sunset) while Purnimasi Tithi is prevailing.
