November 16, 20205 yr I didn't know what it was until we moved here 10 years ago. I then asked a co-worker who explained the back story. Something about a princess being freed after having been locked away in a tower. Or I might be confusing it with the plot of shrek.

We light lamps to celebrate a King's return after victory in battle, from what I remember. I'm not a very good Hindu. We got money, so it was basically Indian Christmas when I was a kid. But my parents wanted us to feel American, so we celebrated Christmas too. Double win.
