Lord Krishna play the flute, the melodious flute attracting Radha and gopis. Lord Krishna’s playful interactions with the gopis, symbolizing love, joy, and the importance of devotion.
Part 3:
Just as they are getting intoxicated, lord Krishna sprinkling the colored powder on them, the atmosphere becomes jubilant, the air gets filled with color, people continue to draw beautiful pictures with dance enjoying the ”festival of colors,“ which is a vibrant and joyful Hindu celebration marking spring’s arrival, the triumph of good over evil, and the legendary love between Radha and Krishna.
