Hiranyakashipu had banned taking the name of God in his kingdom and started considering himself as God. But Hiranyakashipu’s son Prahlad was a devotee of God.

At the same time, Holika, the sister of Hiranyakashipu, had a boon of not being consumed in the fire. Once Hiranyakashipu ordered Holika to take Prahlad in her lap and sit in the fire. But on sitting in the fire, Holika got burnt and Prahlad survived. Since then, Holika Dahan started being done in the memory of God devotee Prahlad.
