A large number of kids had visited Mumbai's famous Juhu beach to fly kites on the occasion of Makar Sankranti
Makar Sankranti is celebrated across India and is known by various names such as Pongal (Tamil Nadu), Bihu (Assam), and Maghi (Punjab, Haryana)
As Makar Sankranti is a festival of devotion, several devotees take a dip in the Ganga on this festival. From Kolkata's Babughat to Varanasi's Ganga ghats and Haridwar's Har Ki Pauri devotees braved the chilly weather to take holy dips and offer prayers
Traditional dishes such as sesame-jaggery laddus, khichdi, and other festive treats are made on the occasion
