A Magical Evening of Light, Culture & Friendship!

Embassy of India in Tunis celebrated India Day & Diwali with an unforgettable event that brought together + 200 guests, marking one of our most vibrant gatherings of the year.

We were truly honored by the presence of our Chief Guest, H. E. Mr. Slim Ghariani, General Director of Asia at the Ministry or Foreign Affairs, Migration and Tunisians Abroad.

In a beautiful moment of unity, H. E. Mr. Ambassador Devyani Khobragade, Our Chief Guest H. E.

To set a serene and mindful tone, the event began with a guided meditation session, inviting guests to pause, breathe, and embrace the spirit of peace and inner light that Diwali represents.

The night came alive with:

But the highlight that stole everyone’s heart…
Ambassador H.E. Dr. Devyani Uttam Khobragade & daughter Ms. Shaira Singh Khobragade surprised the audience by walking the runway in 2 stunning Tunisian outfits inspired by the Indian choli & lehenga, beautifully designed by Rashma — a perfect blend of both cultures on one stage.

It was an evening of connection, creativity, and celebration — honoring the lights of Diwali and the deepening friendship between India and Tunisia.
