It's that time of the year again -- the annual La Tomatina festival in Bunol, Spain.
The festival which has no religious significance was first held in August 1945 following a fight among a group by throwing vegetables and fruits at each other.
Due to its popularity among youngsters, La Tomatina -- glimpses of which Hindi film audiences saw in Zoya Akhtar's 2011 film Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara -- was declared a Fiesta of International Tourist Interest in 2002.
