Navratri is a nine-night Hindu festival dedicated to the worship of the goddess Durga and her nine forms, celebrated with immense fervor across India, particularly in Gujarat, West Bengal, and Maharashtra. Each night is associated with a different color, a different form of the goddess, and distinct rituals of devotion. In Gujarat, the festival is synonymous with Garba and Dandiya Raas, energetic folk dances performed in large community gatherings that can attract tens of thousands of participants.
