Although we put led lights for decoration, Diyas are connected with tradition, so there’s not a single Hindu house that doesn’t have at least five lighted Diyas on Diwali.. And as for the price, people won’t pay a lot for a diya. It’s small, used only once and is bought in bulk. I don’t know about others, but me and my family purchase a LOT of stuff from potters during Diwali. Simple diyas, special Diyas, there are diyas shaped like peacock or mandala, we buy some vases, we also buy kulhad (which is a small container of clay that can be used as a glass to drink water), small matkis ( a round bottom container), and other such stuff. In every city, there’s a ‘kumhar mohalla’ (potters’ street), so if we don’t find much variety in the main market, I buy stuff from their streets. And there too I see a lot of people buying diyas and stuff from potters. So for me and my fam, Diwali celebration includes the shopping as well. And Diyas are a very important part of that shopping. And Diwali isn’t the only festival when diyas are purchased.. every occasion where a huge Pooja has to be conducted, diyas se bought and lighted. - Indian. P.S. - diya-making is a seasonal employment. So when it is not a diya season, many potters make stuff that’s important for the current season. Like, clay water pots for summers, khaprail for monsoon, Durga idols and many other gods idols for the respective festive season, clay toys and flower pots are yearlong stuffs... so as you can see, potters make a lot of things throughout the year and people buy their stuff as and when they need them.

I pray for the artisans and their children.

I think we should support earthen lamps 🪔🪔 instead of wax candles (tea lights). Diyas can be used with a combination of led light so gives employment to both sectors

A great insight into this small potter's business and I think we should do something to upgrade them to some extent.

Diyas made of clay are never thrown away unless they are cracked or leak. People are going for "Reusable" ones because that is easy. Flip the switch and you have light. But for a Diya you have to pour oil then put a wick and keep pouring oil or adjusting the wick to maintain an even flame. Lot of work you see.

Yeah we do decorate them you know in our childhood we had created numerous diyas. We had competition for decorating them it was such a lovely time. We painted big & small diyas with different patterns, glued decorating stuffs on it & lit in our schools.

Beautiful😍❤i love my India I salute the all like this people protect our culture

It is tradition that We indians buy new diya every diwali that make it more special

You're only telling half the story though. The use of Diyas and Earthen Lamps aren't going away, but it's certainly reduced. Most of the people who only used to decorate with Diyas, are now using Electrical Wire Lights to adorn their homes with (but only on the outside). Most people still use Diyas to decorate inside the home and Balconies. But think about it this way, if people dispose Diya after only one use, wouldn't it being more business to the Lampmakers?

Can you make more why is it so expensive videos? I really miss them

TY 😊

Im not from india but they export diyas to our country So thay every year we can celebrate divalie How ever now i realise how hard it is for them to make diyas And we here usinh them to celebarte

Lack of modernisation and personal hygiene is the main reason of Indian poverty

We should take initiative and help them by showing some videos like the Japanese art style and way Japan does it for their artisans.

That's the reason I always say buy diyas and idols for Diwali from small vendors not malls and shops.

Man even the Indian media doesn't care about these issues hats off

""dee yay" ??? girl what 0:10

As an Indian it's very hard work of making diyas
