Red raas garba 20174/1/2024 “It is difficult to keep your eyes on one girl,” says a 27-year old student, who goes garba-hopping with his gang of friends each year. In some garbas, like one in Vadodara, there are nearly 25 concentric circles of dancers, with some 20,000 people, mostly girls, dancing at one go. Nine nights of the year, young women in Gujarat let their hair down, as the men make the most of the opportunity, by wooing the ladies with their moves. So it follows that for young and single people it is a chance to mingle-with abandon, and away from parental disapproval. The Navratri in Gujarat is a breathtaking spectacle, a riot of colours, and, like many festivals, it upends the crusty rules of everyday life.
