Spiritually signifying the victory of good over evil, Diwali is the grandest and brightest festivals celebrated in India.

Diwali, the festival of lights is celebrated by illuminating homes with diyas and magnificent lights. Firing crackers plays a significant role in the celebration, as it is considered as an expression of obeisance to the heavens for the attainment of health, wealth, knowledge, peace and prosperity.

Our television stars are completely charged up to celebrate this festival not only with their family and friends, but also with the viewers through their shows. Let's take a look on who are the real phatakas of television!

Anar:

Just like the fountain illuminates the environment. Divyanka Tripathi seen on Star Plus show 'Yeh Hai Mohabbatein' too spreads vibrancy and positivism around her. Both are spectacular to watch!

Rocket:

Embarking her journey with shows like 'Dill Mill Gayye', 'Geet - Hui Sabse Parayi' and 'Madhubala - Ek Ishq Ek Junoon', there has been no looking back for Drashti Dhami. In fact, she also went on and won the sixth season of 'Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa' just like a rocket which only goes up without looking back! With the current speed, this lady is rolling with, we won't be too surprised to see her debuting in movies soon!

Phuljhadi:

Just like Phuljhadi's add sparkle to Diwali, sultry Sanaya Irani adds spark to every show she takes up. Diwali is incomplete without this splendid, yet safest cracker. And Sanaya too, is considered to be the safest and a sure shot success recipe for any show. With the spunk like that, she surely is TV's most loved Phuljhadi!

Ladi:

Once you lit a Ladi, it just goes on and on... till u secretly start hoping and waiting for the monotonous noise to stop.

Similarly, Hina Khan who bagged the Star Plus show 'Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai' in 2009 had a lot of spark and created a lot of noise in the industry, but is now getting too monotonous with her repetitive expressions and single track role. Viewers are really hoping to see her in a different avatar or a new show.

Chakri:

We feel Ekta Kapoor is this phataka of television who promises to deliver something exceptional and unique with each show, but ends up serving the old wine in new bottle every time! Eventually it is all about kitchen politics, extra marital affairs, memory loss drama, characters dying and magically reappearing on the show and the never ending love quadrangles! She truly signifies a Chakri, the sparkling cracker that keeps rotating on the same track!

Magical snake:

It goes without saying. The magical snake, that is quiet and subtle, but delivers a visual treat is no one else, but Mouni Roy who is currently doing the show 'Naagin'.

Sutli Bomb:

It takes seconds to explode and... BAM! Radhika Madan's entry into the fiction space got her overnight success. However, we really wonder, if she would continue to create her magic on other shows as well, or end up into being a one show wonder!
