‘Navratri’ is derived from two Sanskrit words- ‘Nava’ means Nine and ‘Ratri’ means night, therefore Navratri translates to nine auspicious nights. It is a major festival of the Hindus that depicts joy, positivity, and devotion to the feminine divine and is celebrated with great enthusiasm all over the country. It falls in the Ashwin month according to the Hindu calendar, roughly between September and October. It is a time for introspection and spiritual growth. Many people observe fast, offer prayers, and perform various rituals these days to purify their minds and bodies. It is also a time for dancing, feasting, and social gatherings.
