Colours -- and emotions! -- run high during Holi.

No wonder India's most vibrant festival is the perfect excuse for friends to flirt and foes to become friends again. (Don't get too carried away though. Here's a list of do's and don't's.)

Sukanya Verma looks at the variety of moods colouring Bollywood's Holi celebrations.

When you're from the enemy clan, the only way to do it is hush-hush.

While some go wild playing Holi, Akshay Kumar and Kareena Kapoor's slow-motion celebration finds magic aroind madness.

Grateful

Salman Khan is known to celebrate all festivals in real life. He seems equally thankful for the joys of desi culture in Bajrangi Bhaijaan.

 

Livid

Quite a rare sight to see someone grumble or growl during such a merry festival unless it's Shah Rukh Khan at his obsessive best stalking Juhi Chawla's private party in Darr.

 

Competitive

And the tallest glass of bhaang for Best dancer at War's Holi bash goes to -- Hrithik or Tiger?

 

Affectionate

Remember that song in Sholay? Holi ke din dil mil jaate hain? Badrinath Ki Dulhania's Alia Bhatt and Varun Dhawan do too.

 

Bindaas

Royalty or raastachaap, never shy from a friendly show of Holi. Who better than Holi regular Deepika to remind us?
