Diwali is the festival of lights and one of the major festivals celebrated across India. The celebration lasts five days, or six days in some parts of India, and is held in the Hindu month of Kartika (between mid-October and mid-November). Diwali represents the triumph of “light over darkness, good over evil, and wisdom over ignorance.”

Recently, Mr Pattnaik constructed a stunning sand sculpture of Prime Minister Narendra Modi wishing him a happy birthday at Puri beach in Odisha. Mr Pattnaik displayed his one-of-a-kind way of greeting the Prime Minister, who turned 72 on September 17. His installation piece consisted of 1,213 mud tea cups.
