Diwali Solutions MakeMyTrip Style

The festival of lights is here! Read—the time when we all burn electricity and money guilt-free and flash fake sparkling smiles. It’s also the time when the light reflected from our diamonds makes the most noise. Smoke free, of course! Don’t get us trippers wrong, we luuuuurve Diwali as much as we love our kaju katli, traveling to FB friendly locations and our fancy check-ins. We love the idea of celebrating a cosy day with our loved ones too, but what if you are stuck in not-so-desirable situations? MakeMyTrip comes to the rescue with budget quick fixes:

Diwali Problem Situation: Stuck in Traffic

You bravely decided to go visit your mom-in-law and do the Lakshmi pooja with her. Collective pressure on the goddess always works. True that! But it’s been half an hour and you’re stuck at the same spot amidst a thick wall of traffic. You’ve heard song after song and ad after ad selling property in Bhiwadi on the radio and frankly you can’t take it anymore. At this point even your mother-in-law’s company seems more exciting. Yes, it’s that bad!

MakeMyTrip Budget Solutions: How about opening the #MakeMyTrip app on your phone and planning where you’d like to escape these monstrous Diwali traffic jams next year. Are we plugging ourselves in? Of course not! We are just making holidays better for you—imagine celebrating Diwali sitting next to a river or a lake, lit up with diyas. And by sending you out, we’ll ensure that some bit of traffic frees up. After all planning in advance helps all!

Diwali Problem Situation: Stuck Amidst Loud Relatives

As much as we all love Diwali, we have to be honest and admit that family gatherings can get on one’s nerves sometimes. The buas binging on your favourite snack that your mum made, chachas and mamas gulping down your dad’s scotch and noisy kids creating more noise than the crackers’—we’ve all been there. But fret not friends, mere pass plan B hai!

MakeMyTrip Budget Solutions: Put up a supernatural show on TV (Naagin, anyone?) that everyone will invariably get hooked on to, or start the conversation of getting your elder cousin married, and sneak out of the talk (how Chandler Bing of you!) to watch snippets of #PammiAunty and #MakeupDidi on Instagram. These virtual relatives will surely be more entertaining than real ones, we promise.

Diwali Problem Situation: Stuck with Gadget Over-friendly Husband

So he has finished all his work commitments and has secured the much deserved leave to be home to celebrate; and he sits tight, spending some lovely moments with your newly acquired phone or fidgeting around with the already-working-well laptop. And if you mention that he must light diyas or go visiting relatives with you, the bomb will explode.

MakeMyTrip Budget Solutions: We bet you’ll use this one because it is so simple and sounds so genuine. All you need to do is snap the connection of your Wi-Fi by sneakily loosening out or pulling out a wire. And when he complains about the missing Wi-Fi, innocently blame it on the crackers flying around. It’s Diwali after all, take advantage!
