Diwali dress up competition organised by FBC’s Mirchi FM radio station took a new approach this year.

Bula FM introduced the competition to its listeners attracting around forty-thousand entries for both stations.

Young and old dressed in their best Diwali attire sent pictures through social media showing a great response.

Radio and Programs Manager, Shammi Lotchan says this is a new trend which shows inclusivity.

“Now we know what the people of Fiji want. They want inclusiveness, they want to share their love and joy. We in Fiji are trendsetters, where all people want to participate in Diwali.”

The first prize winners for the best dressed Diwali dress-up for both the stations shared $1,000.
