Dandiya or Dandia, also known as Dandiya Raas, a popular folk dance originating from Gujurat, is performed in groups, on the occasion of Navaratri (nine-day celebration of the goddess Durga), to honor the divine feminine, and celebrate the triumph of good over evil, purifying the mind and start afresh. Slowly, Dandiya has become extremely popular and is celebrated in many places, with paid mode and the charges vary based on the facilities offered. However, our ladies do all the preparation to celebrate in our society premise - it's quite different when everyone is known to each other. So the evening ended up having some brilliant performance, in which they danced their heart out, with some exceedingly elegant, vibrant getup and colorful Dandiya sticks in hand.
Preparation of an event of this scale, must have taken considerable amount of planning and effort, and it showcases the spirit of togetherness of our ladies and our culture. There was some nice snacks arranged in between, to refresh and regain their energies and dance again to the fullest possible. And not to mention, it would have taken a lot to prepare the colorful outfits matching the theme, making the evening a grand success.
