Falguni Pathak Electrifies Mumbai’s Navratri, Thousands Performs Garba in the Rain | WATCH

In Mumbai, Navratri celebrations would feel incomplete without the mesmerizing voice of Falguni Pathak, affectionately known as the “Garba Queen.” A recently circulated video on social media showcases the vibrant atmosphere of these festivities, demonstrating that even rain cannot dampen the enthusiasm of the revelers.

In the footage, Pathak is seen performing for her audience while holding an umbrella, unfazed by the rain. The audience, fully engaged, raises their hands in excitement, with some using umbrellas of their own.

As the camera pans to the screen behind Pathak, a prominent image of her guru, Shri Aniruddha, is displayed. The video includes the caption “Falguni garba + Rains.” The Instagram account @showglitzevents commented: “Come rain, come storm, there’s no stopping in playing Garba with the one and only Falguni Pathak.”

Kyu bhul gaye na cold play? (You’ve forgotten Coldplay, right?)” while another asked, “Mobile phone kaha rakhe hongy Sabne? (Where must have these people kept their mobile phones?)”

Falguni Pathak’s Navratri celebration at Swargiya Pramod Mahajan Maidan is now in its seventh year and consistently attracts large crowds. Organizers anticipated over 30,000 attendees daily, with the total participation during the ten-day festival likely to exceed half a million, according to an ANI report. This year’s Navratri celebration is shaping up to be one of the largest in the state.
