“It’s a moment of celebration for people in India and communities all over the world”, added he.

Diwali fever has reached Menlo Park, with Facebook CEO Mark Zukerberg putting out a post on Diwali, saying he misses being in India for this festive occasion.

Even Premier League clubs Arsenal and Manchester City took to twitter to wish their fans a Happy Diwali.

Through a Facebook campaign that encouraged people to donate to a social cause instead of buying Diwali crackers or gadgets, i-Light raised Rs 80,000 ($1,210.86) and had to shut down their campaign due to the overwhelming generosity.
