Gulal powder has always had an important role in has always been used for religious purposes. Besides the Holi festival, the use of colored powders appears in other ceremonies, such as funerals. In this case, in some populations, a particular ritual occurs when the deceased is a married man. The widow puts on all the ornaments she possesses and takes leave of her husband adorning him with all her jewels. Holding a small brass plate with colored powders, she lets the men participating in the ceremony paint the face of the deceased. This ritual is associated with the one of marriage, in which the bridegroom and the bride anoint themselves with colored powders for four days before the wedding. This ointment, indeed, is meant to prepare their bodies for conjugal life.[5] Beyond the religious sphere, the consumption of Gulal powder is spread for different uses.
