01:35It's a colorful decoration that people make at their doorsteps on Diwali.
01:42It brings good energies and positivity into our homes.
01:48Wow! That's such a good thought!

02:47Wow! That's so beautiful!
02:51But daddy, why do we make rangoli?
02:54But daddy, why do we make rangolis on Diwali?
02:58Choo-choo! People decorate their doorsteps with rangolis
03:03to invite and welcome people into their homes and their hearts.
03:09How wonderful!
03:11And why do people celebrate Diwali, daddy?
03:15Good question, Chacha.
03:17Come, let me tell you the story of Diwali.
03:25Once upon a time, there was a wonderful prince named Rama.
03:32He was kind-hearted and took special care of the poor and the weak.
03:38All of his people loved him for his goodness.
03:42Rama's father, the king, saw how good and generous Rama was.
03:48And so, he wanted Rama to be the next king.
03:54But one day, a lady who didn't want Prince Rama to become king
04:00played a trick on the king
04:03and convinced him to send Prince Rama to a forest for 14 years.
04:10Poor Rama left his palace and lived a tough life in the forest.
04:16But he never stopped being gentle, kind and good.
04:21After 14 years, when Prince Rama returned to his kingdom,
04:26the people were very happy.
04:29They lit up their homes with lamps,
04:32decorated their front doors,
04:34and welcomed him with joy to their homes.
04:39This is how the festival of Diwali started.
04:44That's so interesting!
04:47So, Diwali is all about defeating the bad thoughts inside of us
04:53and making the goodness in us more powerful.
04:58Wow! Thanks, Daddy!
05:01I'll always try and remember what Diwali is about.
05:06That's great, Chacha!
05:08Shall we go and make some more Diwali treats together now?
05:13Yay!
05:15Yippee!
05:26It's the festival of lights It's Diwali tonight
05:31Sparkling, twinkling, beautiful, bright It's Diwali tonight
05:46We'll make the treats for all to eat And we will make them yum and sweet
05:51We'll share our joy, our light and sing Cause it's Diwali tonight
05:56It's Diwali tonight It's Diwali tonight
06:05Wow! We can't wait to eat these Diwali sweets!
06:11Great! We'll see you soon!
06:15Guess who called?
06:18It was Chiku and Chika's mommy!
06:21And guess what she said?
06:23They're all coming over to celebrate Diwali with us!
06:27Oh, that's great!
06:29It'll be fun to share our toys and our Diwali sweets with Chika and Chiku and their family!
06:41What happened, Chacha?
06:44You don't look happy Is something the matter?
06:48I wish Chiku and Chika and their family wouldn't visit us today
06:54But why is that, Chacha?
06:57I thought you loved playing with Chiku and Chika
07:00I do
07:02But, but I don't want them to play with our new car set
07:07I just want us to play with it
07:10What if they spoil it?
07:12And if we share our Diwali sweets with them, they'll be even less for us
07:17I don't want to give them the sweets we made
07:23Oh, Chacha, I see what the problem is
07:27You don't want to share things with them
07:31Chacha, do you remember what Daddy told us about Diwali?
07:37That Diwali is all about defeating the bad thoughts inside us
07:42And making the goodness in us more powerful?
07:47So, Chacha, look at it this way
07:51If you're selfish and you don't want to share your stuff
07:55You're letting the bad thoughts inside you become more powerful than the goodness inside of you
08:03Do you want the bad thoughts to win?
08:08No, no, I want goodness to win
08:13I sure want goodness to win
08:16Chuchu, I'm going to share our toys and sweets with Chiku and Chika and their family
08:23And I'm going to defeat selfishness
08:26Oh, Chacha, that's so wonderful
08:38Vroom! This is such a cool car
08:42Watch this green car go over the bridge
08:46Vroom!
08:48Chuchu and Chacha, thanks for letting us play with these cars
08:53You're welcome, Chiku and Chika
08:55Hang on, let me get some Diwali sweets that we made
09:08It's a festival of lights, it's Diwali tonight
09:14Sparkling, twinkling, beautiful, bright, it's Diwali tonight
