[[Diwali]] is the brightest of all [[Hinduism|Hindu]] holidays and, above all, the feast that unites family. Yet, Diwali also includes some social and domestic rituals that liven up the celebrations. Due to the necessity of playing card games using actual rupees, Teen Patti is the main draw. House or club parties that are appropriate for the occasion usually begin a full month and a half before Diwali day and bring people together for the eagerly anticipated game of chance vs skill.<ref>https://mumbaigullies.in/teen-patti-indian-traditional-game/</ref> | |||
