Editor’s Pick: 6 Best Last-Minute Diwali Gifts To Get Your Loved Ones So They Don’t Say “Tum Phir Bhul Gaye?”
Surprise your loved ones with cute gifts this Diwali, here's our Editor-approved last-minute gifting guide.

Diwali is here. Have you still not got a gift for your loved ones? Bhai, aur kitne wait karoge? You’re clearly late to the party but there’s still some scope for you to save face because we’ve got your back (or rather I’ve got your back). If you’re anything like me (supremely busy with work and operating on limited mental bandwidth) and have completely forgotten to pick Diwali gifts – first of all, stop worrying. Diwali hai, you’ll figure it out with some help. But hold on, you want to get your loved ones meaningful gifts? Gotcha! Here’s a whole list that will help you pick the best gifts for your fam-jam even if it’s so very last minute. Ab time waste karna band karo and just dive in!
1. A Green Gift
Worried that your mom will scold you for “wasting” money on gifts? Or your dad says you’re the only gift he needs so you can save some buck? How about you get them a new child to fret over from Ugaoo? Not only do they have Diwali hampers to pick from, you can also customise a gift for them and get them a plant which can bring them joy (maybe a money plant?). And guess what? They come with planters and care instructions so, your parents won’t have to struggle to care for their new kids. Plus you can order them from Zepto or Blinkit as well which means gift shall be delivered within 10 mins!

2. Everything That Shines
Get a heera for the heera in your life from Heera – The Jewellery Trunk. No, it won’t burn a hole in your pocket. This brand offers a range of simple but chic everyday jewellery pieces that can be made in silver or 14k gold. But the heera is lab-made and we all know that lab-made diamonds are way more affordable than the natural ones. So, your mom, wife, sister, BFF and every other amazing woman in your life can wear an affordable diamond without, you having to go broke for the next few months!

3. Gift A Patakhaa
Want your BFF to have a dhamakedaar Diwali without a firecracker? My suggestion would be to get her hooked onto Bijlee from Leezu’s for an electrifying celebration that will light up her bedroom like no other. This personal massager will help her bring home the Big O. Also, what better gift could you get your soul sister than the gift of pleasure? She’ll thank you for the rest of her life for all the orgasms you’ve gifted her!

4. Some Ohs And Ahs!
Nothing can be a better gift than Diwali ke kapde. If you know your bae is going to forget to pick their naye kapde, head to the Samoh store to pick out a glam look for them so they can look like a patakha in the brand’s delicately crafted outfits that are the perfect blend of desi with modern and sophisticate cuts. I’d recommend a saree but you’ve got a variety to pick from, so go at it. I promise the fabric is fab!

5. Fabulous Footwear
One can never have enough footwear to pick from. So, if you haven’t got a gift for your love, I suggest you hit the mall right now and pick out a pair of glamorous heels or loafers from Rosso Brunello. This luxury footwear brand has a range of rhinestone heels that are perfect for desi outfits as well as westernwear. And who doesn’t love glam but versatile footwear?
