Google video on our dewali celebration in Varanasi

I was thinking this would be thie 1st time when i wouldnt b there at home during dewali but as fate had it...i had to rush to Varanasi in a state of frenzy when i heard the news of my mother's accident.
She is fine now and in the process of recovering the movement of her injured hand.
But, all that didnt stop us from having our small dewali celebration and here is a small video that i made from my digicam (Nikon S5). People seen here are my mother (her resonating laughter :) can be heard in the audio), my father looking a little worried by the size of the firecracker about to explode and my ammaji... and the protagonist, the firecracker :)

(the video is shot in dark so faces are not quite clear).
