Deepak Badhwar on Eid, while mingling with the crowds!

A sea of humanity behind him, Deepak Badhwar speaks to camera, as he negotiates a sea of humanity. Meanwhile, balloon sellers create a festive air on eid-ul-Fitr in the national capital of Delhi, India.

Eid-ul-Fitr, often abbreviated to Eid, is a Muslim holiday that marks the end of Ramadan, the Islamic holy month of fasting (sawm). Eid is an Arabic word meaning "festivity", while Fiṭr means "breaking the fast". The holiday celebrates the conclusion of the 29 or 30 days of dawn-to-sunset fasting during the entire month of Ramadan. The first day of Eid, therefore, falls on the first day of the month Shawwal. This is a day where Muslims around the world try to show a common goal of unity. It is a day of recognizance of God.
