Is it just a coincidence or is there any relation between Lord Rama returning to Ayodhya from 14 years of exile and the worshipping of Goddess Laxmi on the same day i.e. Diwali

Interestingly Ramaji doesn’t return on Diwali as is commonly and unfortunately interpreted. See this question : Does Rama return in Chaitra or Vaishakha. Devi Lakshmi is worshipped on Diwali day because she came from the Samudra Manthan on that day (still searching for reference) just as Dhanvantari came on Dhanteras day– AdiyarkkuApr 20, 2021 at 18:37
