Do share with us how you celebrated Diwali…

In India, festivals are given so much importance and there are a lot of activities and rituals associated with each of them. One such festival that just went by was the Durga Puja. Celebrated with a lot of life and buzz, the festival lights up the state of West Bengal, Specifically Kolkata [Calcutta as it was known earlier]. 

Sandip Kundu, an IT professional takes us through the experience with these photographs captured during the festive season…

This Ganesha has been created by a friend of hers, proving that one can beleive in “Going green” and  -2nd picture – Ganesh – a Green perspective. Made with nothing but leaves – this Ganesha reflects on the Green concept.

Isn’t  it lovely ???

Uma signs off saying she is off to plan for the 2nd festival of September- Navaratri, to put up the elaborate Golu [dolls/figurines of Gods & Goddesses] on a step ladder like the one below which was from last year.

Among the festivals of September, the most colourful is Onam, celebrated by Malayalis across the globe. It is a festival where we find colours in Rangolis, floral decorations and in Onam Sadya- the feast. 

Onam is a harvest festival that falls in the Malayali month of ‘Chingam’, which is between the months of August and September. It is celebrated over a period of ten days, which culminates with a grand celebration on the last day, which this year falls on Friday- Sep 9th. The festival also marks the annual visit of the Asura King Mahabali ..

Archhana Kombrabail takes us on a vibrant journey through the various Rangolis they do at home during Onam. She says ” most families create rangoli with flowers, and these take shape over a period of 10days, with a layer being added each day”.

Here are some of the rangolis she had done with her family in their Pune home…

September is going to be a month of festivals, starting with the most popular of them all– Ganesh Chathurthi on the 1st! It is amazing to observe people from across the country come together to rejoice the birth of the Elephant God. Celebrated with a lot of pomp and fare Mumbai streets turn into hubs for music, dance and festive spirits. Gopal shares with us a different perspective on Ganesh Chathurthi….
