Holi being a religious tenet of Hindus was celebrated with traditional enthusiasm around the world, especially in India and Pakistan. The festival of colors is celebrated on March 24, but the day is led by Choti Holi or Holika Dahan (A day celebrated before the main event Holi).
The real meaning of celebrating Holi with colors showcases the concept of acquiring good in life and eliminating evil from our lives. Enjoying their festival of color to it fullest, most of the Bollywood’s glitterati celebrated the festival with their loved ones but many said no to the festival for various reasons.
Famous Bollywood celebs including Bachchan family, Salman Khan, Varun Dhawan, Kriti Sanon, Jacqueline Fernandez and many others got drenched in colors and apparently had a great time celebrating Holi with their loved ones.

Some stars were not so lucky to celebrate the colorful occasion of Holi with their families and friends. They sure had a busy schedule to follow.
Shraddha Kapoor celebrated the Holi event with her family. She took an off a day off from her OK JAANU schedule, to spend some time with her family.
Vidya Balan was busy shooting for her upcoming film Kahani 2. She didn’t get any specific time to celebrate the occasion.
Deepika Padukone was busy shooting XXX: The Return of Xander Cage but the actress celebrated the Holi on the sets of the movie.
Ranveer Singh who has an OCD for cleanliness didn’t play Holi this year. The actor stays away from colors and avoids any kind of mess around him.
Kareena Kapoor Khan is planning to concentrate on the promotions of her upcoming movie Ki and Ka, which is why the actress won’t be participating in any big Holi celebrations.
