Dear Anna, I believe you are doing great. It’s a great pleasure to invite you for the Lohri celebration in my hometown Chandigarh next month on 13th January. I remember you were eager to see this traditional festival when I shared the photographs of last year’s function with you. As a custom, this festival is celebrated with lots of gusto in Punjab and other North Indian regions on 13th of January every year. The occasion is associated with crop harvesting. It also marks the beginning of financial year for the Punjabi farmers. The celebration becomes more joyful if there is a new bride or a newborn baby in the family. Since my brother got blessed with a baby boy two months back, the party is going to be really special for us. Anna, you will love dancing with us on folk beats while putting groundnuts and popcorn into the bonfire. I’ll also get a classical dress designed for you in your favorite Royal Blue color. Please book the air tickets right away and reach India at least two days prior to the occasion. I just can’t wait to see you! With love Harpreet
