Musings

People at the Jatra

Kaasar from Nandgad and her customer Lakshmibai

Lakshmibai was too shy so I didn’t push. I wish I had done a proper photo session with her. She looked positively radiant with the lugada, khanacha blouse, and hirva chuda (green bangles)

Pathan from Belgaum. Colorful display of the churmure and farsan, fried bobbins, Khaja and all the childhood snacks/treats pulled me to this stall. He got emotional when I asked how he was and how was the business. The entire week he was standing there and nobody had bothered he said. He was pleased and proud to pose for the camera.
