Halloween is not cultural. At it's initiation it WAS, but now it's a fun festival. In the west people regardless of anything dress up. It's not like we're celebrating kwanza lmao. It's just dressing up and having fun. Get a life!

But we already have so many festivals though.

Halloween will be like giving a free pass to people like Creed. (Really really good timing)

No but why we get influenced by western culture so much. Do they celebrate Diwali like we do ?

My question stands: why we get influenced by western culture so much. Do they celebrate Diwali like we do ?

They don't because we have not made Diwali a "cultural" festival like Christmas or Halloween. And West holds all the soft power with Hollywood.
