Victory of good over evil

Chokhi Dhani, a culture village, is organising a special event on October 17 to celebrate Dussehra by burning a 30-feet-tall Ravan accompanied by fireworks. After the burning of Ravan, the village will have a DJ dandiya night with Bollywood and Gujarati music.

For the children there are swings, elephant and camel rides and a magic show. Chokhi Dhani has also arranged for mehendi artists, tattoo artists and palmists. They also have ethnic stores where one can buy bangles and oxidised jewellery. There will also be pottery classes, jugglers and puppet show.

The food will be Rajasthani and Gujarati. Thandai with crispy kachoris and matki chaat will be the starters. The main course will consist of dal-baati, and khichda and bajre ki roti with lahsun chutney to name some. There will be sweets like malpua, jalebis.u00a0

Khadki ground
Take a peek into the epics of our country on Dussehra this year as the Khadki Cantonment organises Ramlila. After that, a 40-feet-tall Ravan will be raised and burnt down by the actors in the play. This will be followed by a firecracker show.

The show is for everyone and there is no need for entry tickets. "It feels nice to come here every year and see scenes from history," said Suresh Sadnapurker, a fire brigade driver of cantonment board.
