Navratri 2025, the vibrant festival dedicated to Goddess Durga, begins on Monday, September 22. Navratri, one of India's most lively celebrations that comes just weeks after Ganesh Chaturthi every year, literally means 'nine nights'. The Shardiya Navratri is in honour of Durga Maa and the celebration begins with a grand puja to the goddess. This is followed by dance to traditional music while dressed in vibrant ethnic outfits, honouring the triumph of good over evil. The festivities of Navratri include the traditional dance forms of Garba and Dandiya, primarily practised in Gujarat but also enjoyed in other parts of the country.
