Party time
Every year, Diwali preparations would start 15 days before the festival. The house would be cleaned, repainted and re-upholstered. "We loved the process of getting the house ready for Diwali," he says. Of course, card parties were a big attraction too.

"My mum and uncle are card junkies. They could go on for hours. So we had numerous Diwali card parties," he says. But the best part of the deal was that, "till I was 15, all the money the elders won in card games was distributed among the kids. And we used to make so much money that it would last us for two-three months," says Siddharth.

Happy Diwali
The actual day of the festival was a traditional affair. "Every year, we would make a mandir in my dadi's room. Decorate the house, get dressed in our finest and wait for her to conduct the puja," he recalls. But the real fun began after the puja. "Times were different then. We didn't live in this politically correct world. We would buy lots of crackers and burst them all night," he says.
