Garba and Dandiya Raas are not just festive dances; they are a form of devotion and storytelling. Traditionally performed to honor Goddess Amba, Garba involves rhythmic claps and graceful circular movements around a lamp symbolizing divine energy.
Dandiya Raas, often performed after Garba, uses colorful sticks (dandiyas) to depict the mock battle between Goddess Durga and the demon Mahishasura. Today, these dances have become cultural symbols, celebrated across India and by Indian communities worldwide.
The vibrant music, traditional attire, and collective energy of Garba and Dandiya make them more than just entertainment—they are spiritual expressions of joy and devotion.
