Diwali, one of the grandest celebrations in the Hindu culture, is celebrated with an exhilaration, at the heart of which is giving and receiving gifts.
The quintessential thought is that of the triumph of good over evil, with the lighting of the diyas, which signify the eradication of all obstacles. Family and friends gather and a spirit of jubilation inspires the ritual of exchanging gifts, sweets and other deliciousness.
As a customary tradition and to wish patrons luck and prosperity in the coming days, chefs at Four Seasons Hotel Bengaluru have curated selections of sweet treats.
