PHOTOS: Diwali Rangoli Art On Instagram More Than Makes Up For Crackers

So, maybe the crackers are a tad mute this Diwali but there's no limit on the brightness. Rangoli art seems to be the name of the game this year with bright blues, shimmery pinks and beaming yellows adorning homes and offices to welcome the Goddess Lakshmi. As some of these on Instagram show, they are rendered into intricate shapes and designs and there's a wide variety beyond the classic peacock and Lord Ganesha designs. Here are some of the very best that outshine even the brightest, and loudest firecracker sans the smoke this Diwali.
