The photo was taken during the Holi festival (the festival of colors), celebrated by Hindu followers. People throw and spray paint among themselves and indulge in a joyful celebration. I found this boy waiting for his turn to throw paint but he was afraid at first. When he himself was drenched in colors, his fears were gone.
