Navratri, one of the major Hindu festivals, is celebrated over nine days with enthusiasm across India. This year, festivities were reported from places such as Kolkata and Gujarat.
The celebrations have also been seen overseas, with Hindus marking the festival in different countries.
In the United States, a video from New York City’s iconic Times Square has been circulating on social media, showing Navratri festivities in the heart of the city.
Men and women dressed in traditional Indian clothing were seen performing Garba, a dance closely associated with Navratri celebrations in Gujarat. Passers-by and onlookers responded with applause, and the scene has drawn widespread attention online.
