Culture

History, language, religion, customs, art, festivals, and food make up India’s rich culture. Over 22 official languages and several regional dialects show the country’s linguistic Diversity (De Gersem, 2020). Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, and Sikhism were founded there, living peacefully alongside Islam, Christianity, and other religions (Kapoor et al., 2022). Bharatanatyam, Kathak, and Odissi demonstrate India’s rich culture (Malhotra et al., 2021). India celebrates Diwali, Holi, Eid, and Christmas with gusto and promotes communal peace.

The Taj Mahal, elaborate paintings, and superb craft make up India’s art and architecture. Each region’s Indian cuisine is famous for its spices and tastes (S. Malhotra et al., 2020). Indian culture values family and societal relationships, with the joint family structure remaining common. Saris, salwar kameez, and kurtas exhibit ethnic variety and are worn numerous times (Calkins et al., 2023). They all come in various colors and styles.
