type my uncle lighting one rocket and running for his life
and get a Diwali cartoon video from it.
Diwali is November 8. one line for the family group, one for the cousins, one for the office chat.
ideas
what to type
Diwali wishes the family will actually replay. who's in it, what goes wrong. use real names. copy one of these.
diyas and rangoli
a cat knocking over every diya on the balcony
my sister spends four hours on a rangoli, the dog walks right through it
dad lighting one diya with a whole box of matches
my brother taking 200 selfies in front of the rangoli
sweets
mom hiding the kaju katli box from the whole family
me eating ten laddoos and saying I had one
the last gulab jamun, four cousins, one spoon
firecrackers
my uncle lighting one rocket and running for his life
one sparkler that refuses to go out
the neighbours' fireworks show next to our one sad phuljhadi
grandpa sleeping through the loudest firecrackers on the street
family
the uncle who asks about my salary before saying hello
grandma winning every round of cards at the Diwali party
the whole family cleaning the house the night before, nobody finds the remote
dad chasing a sky lantern down the street
how

send it as a Diwali wish on WhatsApp
tap share, then send video on WhatsApp. it goes as a real video, so it plays in the chat and relatives without the app can watch. or share a link instead.
one cartoon per group chat. type happy Diwali under the link and you're done.
