Eco-Friendly Red Colour For Holi

Option: 1

Turmeric and lemon juice can be combined. Because lemon juice is acidic, it will cause the turmeric to turn red. After that, you can set the mixture aside in a well-ventilated area to dry. Just make sure there is not any sunlight present or it will bleach.

Red hibiscus flowers can also be dried until crisp, at which point they can be ground into a powder using a mixer. To boost the quantity and quality of the colour, you can then combine equal parts rice flour and red saffron.

To get a red, wet colour, you can also boil pomegranate peels in water.

Option: 2

The following ingredients are needed to make red for Holi:

  • A red hibiscus flower or dried rose petals
  • Corn flour or any type of flour

Steps:

  •  Rose or hibiscus petals that have been dried are needed to create a red colour.
  •  Grind them into a fine paste after soaking them for an hour.
  •  To make the paste into a smooth powder, thoroughly mix in the cornflour.
  •  Microwave it or dry it in the sun.
  • As an alternative, you can use raktachandan or red sandalwood powder as gulal if you do not mind spending a little money.

Option: 3

You can make eco-friendly red color for Holi using natural ingredients like beetroot or hibiscus. Here’s how you can make it:

Beetroot Red Colour:

Ingredients: 

  • 1-2 medium-sized beetroots
  • Water
  • Cornstarch or flour (optional, for thickening)

Instructions:

  • Wash and peel the beetroots.
  • Chop the beetroots into small pieces.
  • Place the chopped beetroots in a pot and add enough water to cover them.
  • Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 15-20 minutes.
  • Turn off the heat and let the mixture cool down.
  • Strain the liquid to separate the beetroot dye from the solid pieces.
  • You can either use the liquid directly as a dye or further concentrate it by simmering it on low heat until you achieve the desired intensity.
  • If you prefer a thicker consistency, mix the beetroot dye with cornstarch or flour until you get a paste-like consistency.

 Note:

  • Adjust the concentration of the beetroot dye according to your preference for a lighter or darker shade of red.
  • Store the eco-friendly red color in a sealed container in the refrigerator when not in use.

This natural red color is safe to use and adds a vibrant touch to your Holi celebrations without harming the environment or your skin. Enjoy your eco-friendly Holi!

Female Holi Tips for a Safe & Fun Festival

Is Holi Safe for Female Travelers?

One of the biggest questions female travelers ask is: Is Holi safe for solo women? While no place in the world is completely risk-free, the good news is that with the right precautions, you can have an amazing and safe Holi experience.

As a female traveler, I personally had a fantastic time celebrating Holi! While Holi can be chaotic, crowded, and sometimes overwhelming, the key is preparation. You might feel out of your comfort zone, but that’s part of the adventure. With these Holi safety tips for female travelers, you’re set to have a fun, memorable, and safe celebration!

Best Places for Female Travelers to Celebrate Holi in India

India comes alive with color during Holi, but choosing the right location is key. Some places attract more foreigners, making them safer and more welcoming for solo female travelers.

Top destinations for female travelers:

  • Pushkar: One of the most popular spots for international travelers. It’s lively, colorful, and full of energy! However, it gets busy, so book accommodations in advance.
  • Rishikesh: A safe and spiritual destination, ideal for female solo travelers. I celebrated Holi here in 2019 and highly recommend Shiv Shakti Hostel for a fun, friendly experience.
  • Udaipur & Jodhpur: These cities in Rajasthan are great for backpackers and solo female travelers looking for a more relaxed yet vibrant Holi celebration.

Holi Safety & Preparation Tips for Women

1. Find a Girl Gang (Or Any Group!)

Holi is more fun with friends! Celebrating in a group enhances your experience and provides an extra layer of safety. If you’re traveling solo, consider staying in a hostel to meet other travelers or joining Facebook groups like Girls Love Travel to connect with fellow female travelers.

2. Wear Your Worst Clothes

Holi colors stain—permanently! Here’s how to handle it:

  • Wear cheap, light-colored clothing (white is traditional and looks great in photos!).
  • Be prepared to donate or dispose of your Holi outfit afterward.
  • Avoid wearing anything expensive or sentimental.

3. Protect Your Skin & Hair

  • Apply coconut or mustard oil to your skin and hair before heading out to prevent color stains.
  • Use waterproof sunscreen to protect against sun exposure.
  • Wear a scarf or cap to keep color out of your hair.

4. Bring Sunglasses

Even if it’s cloudy, wear sunglasses to protect your eyes from powder colors, which can sting and cause irritation.

5. Stay Hydrated & Eat Beforehand

Holi is an exhausting festival, and many cafes close for celebrations. Stay energized by:

  • Eating a good meal beforehand to avoid feeling weak.
  • Carrying a water bottle to stay hydrated.
  • Taking advantage of free food offerings, a Holi tradition in many places.

6. Locate a Safe Space or Meeting Point

Crowds at Holi can be overwhelming, and phone signals can be unreliable. Before the celebrations begin, set a meeting point with friends in case you get separated.

7. Carry Minimal Valuables

Holi is a messy festival, and carrying too many valuables isn’t a good idea.

  • Keep essentials in a bum bag or crossbody bag for security.
  • Leave expensive gadgets at your accommodation.
  • If you bring your phone, use a waterproof pouch to protect it from colors and water.

8. Be Cautious with Bhang & Alcohol

Holi celebrations often include bhang (a cannabis-based drink) and alcohol. If you’re not used to it, it can be overwhelming. Only consume what you’re comfortable with and avoid accepting drinks from strangers.

9. Be Ready to Get Messy!

The best way to enjoy Holi is to embrace the chaos. Expect colors to be thrown at you, sometimes even smeared on your face and hair. Most of it is in good spirit, but if someone makes you uncomfortable, firmly say “No” and move away.

10. Head Out Early

Holi celebrations start early in the morning and slow down by the afternoon. By lunchtime, streets begin to clear, and cafes reopen. To get the best experience, join the fun right after breakfast and wrap up before crowds get too intense.

Post-Holi Cleanup: Removing Stains from Hair & Skin

After Holi, you might find your skin and hair stained in bright colors. Here’s how to clean up:

  • Prevention is key: Applying oil before playing makes it easier to wash off colors.
  • Use gentle cleansers: Harsh scrubbing can irritate your skin. Opt for a mild soap and warm water.
  • For hair stains: Mix lemon juice with a mild shampoo and rinse thoroughly.
  • Keep showering daily: Some stains may take a few days to fade, but they will eventually disappear!

What’s Holi All About?

Holi is more than just a festival of colors—it’s a cultural celebration of good triumphing over evil. The night before Holi, bonfires are lit to symbolize the burning away of negativity, inspired by the mythological story of Hiranyakashyapa and his son Prahlad.

The next morning, people gather to throw colors, dance, and celebrate the arrival of spring. The festival promotes joy, forgiveness, and unity—making it one of the most magical experiences in India.

Final Thoughts: Enjoy Holi with Confidence!

Holi is an unforgettable festival, and with these safety tips, you can fully enjoy the experience while staying secure.

 Get ready to celebrate, embrace the colors, and make amazing memories!

Prestige Group’s 5,000-unit township to be Hyderabad city’s biggest

Prestige Group’s 5,000-unit Township to be Hyderabad City’s Biggest rewrite this

The Prestige Group, a renowned real estate developer, is set to create the largest mega township in Hyderabad, with an investment of Rs 5,000 crore. The ambitious project, named ‘Prestige City Hyderabad,’ will feature nearly 5,000 apartments and villas in Rajendra Nagar. The housing options will range from 1BHK to 4BHK configurations.

Strategically located near the PVNR Expressway and in close proximity to the Professor Jayashankar Telangana State Agricultural University (PJTSAU), this township will mark Prestige Group’s foray into Hyderabad, following its successful projects in Bengaluru and Mumbai.

Venkat K Narayana, CEO of Prestige Group, expressed his excitement about the venture, citing the promising performance of the real estate sector in Hyderabad as a motivating factor for this new project. The launch of Prestige City Hyderabad is scheduled for the next couple of months.

Sprawling over 64 acres, Prestige City Hyderabad will consist of 4,647 apartments across 13 towers, covering 9.5 million sq. ft, and 119 villas spanning 0.8 million sq. ft. One of the notable features of the project is the addition of a retail mall within the township, covering one million sq. ft, providing residents with a wide array of amenities and conveniences.

The Prestige Group is a prominent player in the Indian real estate market, with a strong presence in major cities. With a portfolio of 280 completed projects in 12 cities, the group showcases its expertise in diverse real estate segments, including residential, commercial, retail, leisure, and hospitality.

Presently, the Prestige Group is engaged in eight projects in Hyderabad, located in areas such as Nanakramguda, Khanapur, Hitec City, Kokapet, Shamshabad, and Rajendra Nagar. Additionally, the group is gearing up to introduce a sprawling 3 million sq. ft office space in Nanakramguda.
