October 31,2024,Diwali Day,Mandai
To be in the centre of the city market on the biggest festival in India was an overwhelming-ly beautiful experience to every Sense in the body..The joy for me ,an artist and my daughter the budding artist to enter a space going berserk with a riot of colours and fragrances was just a Utter delight…The Mandai totally Blooming with every possible colour, size, fragrance and shape of Flowers, leaves, Rangoli colours, and an endless list of Festive Haves..We were thanking our decision to decide to board an auto and chose to experience this on an otherwise festive busy morning at home..
The intention- celebrate Diwali with all the gusto , even though Papa is physically not with us, and then to make him shine brighter, decorate our homes, celebrate his light…let it permeate in all we do and how we do..
Happy to have gone there, shared the energies with every flower vendor, and exchanged Laxmi with them..in return for An Array of flowers.. Sharing glimpses in pictures..
Fragrant and Delighted

Growing up through Diwali
On a fine festive morning, I woke up to realise the amount of cracker dad had purchased for the Diwali celebration.

When you have a Marathi father-in-law and a Tamil mother-in-law, you end up compulsorily with a jackpot(2 actually) of yummy “chakli” and “murukku” during the festive season!I captured this last lot of murruku yesterday before it vanished into thin air!

Every damn year, the breakdown comes swiftly, like a storm untold, heart racing, mind spinning, losing control. What seems like joy then feels like a weight, an imbalance growing, too heavy, too late.
