Free Diwali Overlays
11 free Diwali overlays in HD. Diya flames, warm bokeh, fireworks, fountain sparks, flower petals and gold glitter for Diwali reels and greetings, each on a black background. Put one above your footage, set the blend mode to Screen, and only the light and colour land on your shot. No signup, no watermark, commercial licence included.
How to use Diwali overlays
Warm the shot to match the diyas
Diya light is orange. If your footage was shot under cool light, warm it a little first so the flames and bokeh look like part of the room instead of a layer on top.
Fireworks go in the sky, not on faces
Place firework and spark overlays over the dark upper part of the frame or a night sky. Over a face or a bright wall they wash out, because a Screen blend only ever adds light.
Are these real diyas and fireworks?
No. Every clip is AI-generated and then checked by hand, frame by frame, for anything that looks wrong. They are made to sit on top of your own Diwali footage, not to pass as a record of a real celebration.
How do I add a Diwali overlay in CapCut?
On a phone: open your project, tap Overlay, then Add overlay, and choose the clip. With it selected, tap Blend and pick Screen. On desktop: select the clip, then Video, Basic, Blend, Screen.
Can I use these Diwali overlays commercially?
Yes. Every clip is free for commercial use in videos, ads and client work, no watermark and no signup. You cannot resell or redistribute the raw clips on their own.
