Holi is around the corner and keeping in mind the water woes that the country is facing, many have pledged to either not play holi or play a dry holi. And for those kids who have decided to give this holi a miss, Indian kids broadcasters have plenty in store to keep them entertained for the day.
Discovery Kids will be presenting a special Kisna episode – Bura Na Maano Holi Hai in which Kisna and his friends will celebrate the festival of colours on 24 March, 9 am to 10 pm.
The special episode will revolve around Kisna and his friends when they visit his uncle in Nandgaon to celebrate Holi with his family and cousins. Kids will witness flavours of Holi and the group of friends celebrating the festival with water, colours, sweets and lots of fun.
During the celebrations, Kisna and his friends will take up the challenge of winning the honorable flag, in the competition arranged by the Mukhiya of Nandgaon. To reach the flag, kids will have to walk through a trap surrounded by people waiting to colour them from the roofs of their houses.
The older group of kids who have been winning the competition every year in Nandgaon are confident that they will win this time as well. Kisna’s friends attempt to reach the flag but one after the other, all of them fail. Will Kisna be able to hoist the flag? Or will Nandgaon lose the competition this year as well?
