Music is the soul of any party, it can ruin or make the atmosphere of the party.  Create a playlist of energetic, groovy and Diwali-themed songs that guests can vibe to.  Be sure to take a premium music platform because ads leave a bad impression and kill the vibe. Also, check the Dj console and speakers prior to ensure they work properly and make sure there is an empty space that becomes the dance floor
