The festival of a million bright colours is here and with it, a chance to display traditional Indian fashion. Bright oranges and greens, and shiny trinkets to match.
"I dress up girls all the time, right from their lehngas to the earrings. They come here a couple of hours before they need to go for the dance and I dress them up completely," said Narendra Sejpal, a shop owner.

Ahmedabad: Love for music and personal satisfaction has turned many professionals into part time artist for these nine days of Navratri. They may be teachers, home guards, caterers or even business travellers for major part of the year but with the offset of Navratri, they change roles to become Tabla player, Dholi or singers.
However, the moolah factor also plays a significant role. It has been

It is October in India. October of the silken sun and blossoming trees. October is a holy time. Durga comes sweeping down from the mountains. Iftaar dinners are in full swing.
