Crackers hold a lure for both young and old in a similar way. In spite of a mounting anti-cracker drive, there is no plunge in its popularity. When the rocket soars high into the sky and unfolds into an umbrella of colorful residues, people from the ground gaze at this spectacle in wonder, the splendor raining down at their direction. Children take great pleasure in lighting up fire wheel which swirls on the floor while others like to explode crackers emitting deafening sound. Every year Diwali makes its presence felt with all its myriad sound and sparkle.
