Gujarat is all set to welcome and celebrate Navratri, a nine-day festival, a vibrant celebration of music, dance, and culture. The festival honours the nine forms of Goddess Durga and people associate each day of Navratri to a designated colour theme reflecting Royal Blue (Shailaputri), Yellow (Brahmacharini), Green (Chandraghanta), Grey (Kushmanda), Orange (Skandamata), White (Katyayani), Red (Kalaratri), Pink (Mahakali) and Purple (Navami). Garba, a traditional folk dance performed in circle, forms an integral part of these festivities. Gujarat's Navratri celebrations are renowned for their unique traditions, dress codes, and enthusiasm. This tradition adds to the festive atmosphere, as people come together to celebrate, dressed in vibrant colours.
