When do Hindus play tricks?
The Hindus of India and Nepal like to play tricks during their spring festival of Holi. One of their favourite tricks is to stain each other with dye. People run through the streets and throw coloured powder and water over each other. Holi celebrations go on for up to five days during March or April, in honour of the Hindu god Krishna.
Everyone is soon stained with coloured powder and water during Holi.
