What is Deepavali?

Diwali (also spelled Divali in few countries) or Deepavali is popularly known as the festival of lights. Its an important five-day festival in Hinduism, Sikhism, Jainism and to some Buddhists, occurring between mid-October and mid-November. For Hindus, Diwali is the most important festival of the year and is celebrated in families by performing traditional activities together in their homes. Deepavali is an official holiday in India, Guyana, Trinidad & Tobago, Mauritius, Malaysia, Nepal, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Myanmar , Fiji , and Suriname.


The name Diwali is itself a contraction of the word "Deepavali" (Sanskrit: दीपावली Dīpāvali), which translates into row of lamps. Diwali involves the lighting of small clay lamps (divas) (or Deep in Sanskrit: दीप) filled with oil to signify the triumph of good over evil. During Diwali, all the celebrants wear new clothes and share sweets and snacks with family members and friends. Some Indian business communities begin the financial year on the first day of Diwali, hoping for prosperity the following year.

In Jainism, Diwali marks the attainment of moksha by Mahavira in 527 BC. In Sikhism, Deepavali commemorates the return of Guru Har Gobind Ji to Amritsar after freeing 52 Hindu kings imprisoned in Fort Gwalior by Emperor Jahangir; the people lit candles and diyas to celebrate his return. This is the reason Sikhs also refer to Deepavali as Bandi Chhorh Divas, "the day of release of detainees". Deepavali is widely celebrated in both India and Nepal.

‘The Giant’ mengisahkan mengenai Ganesh, seorang budak lelaki yang berusia 11 tahun. Walaupun baru berusia 11 tahun, saiz badannya yang jauh lebih besar berbanding dengan rakan sekelas yang lain menyebabkan Ganesh selalu merasakan dirinya keseorangan.

Satu-satunya perkara yang dia mahu ialah untuk menjadi normal seperti rakan sekelasnya yang lain.

Menghampiri sambutan Deepavali, dia menyedari saiz badanya yang besar menjadikan dia unik dan istimewa. Perkara ini dipelajari daripada neneknya yang berkerusi roda.
Ganesh sedar yang saiz badan yang besar bukanlah kekurangan, namun satu kurniaan kepadanya yang membolehkan dia membantu neneknya bergerak. Kejujuran yang ada dalam dirinya menjadikan dia tempat bergantung oleh orang yang disayanginya.
