What to write: five questions

These are the five questions you answer when you order. The first three are needed, the last two optional. One idea for each:

1. 1 · Who is Papa to you?needed

   For example: Papa, who is up first every Diwali to put up the lights himself.

2. 2 · A moment only you two shareneeded

   For example: Hiding the box of mithai every year, and you finding it anyway.

3. 3 · What makes Papa so Papa?needed

   For example: Strict on the outside, but the first to cover my ears when the crackers went off.

4. 4 · What have you never said out loud?optional

   For example: Back from hostel for my first Diwali, I wanted to hug you and only said "Hi Papa".

5. 5 · Your wish for themoptional

   For example: May the house always have this much light and laughter.

For a better song

• Each song is made for one rishta. Separate songs for Maa and Papa feel the most personal.
• WhatsApp gets busy on Diwali itself; make it two days early and send the premiere in the morning.
• Crackers, sweets, cleaning: every home has those. Write what only happens in yours.

Lyrics, English versionHalf a Maggi

Verse

Priya Didi, remember Nani’s rooftop,

Two in the morning, one bowl of Maggi.

Half for you and half you gave to me,

“Shh! Don’t you dare tell Mummy.”

Oh Didi, my Didi,

You’re the scolding and you’re the shield.

Bhai Dooj teeka or our everyday fights,

Without you this house isn’t home.
