Makar Sankranti
This harvest festival is celebrated when the sun transits the zodiac sign Makar (Capricorn). The sky is ablaze with colourful kites. Sweets flavoured with sesame seed is an important item during Makar Sankranti. It is celebrated in mainly Gujarati areas such as Kalbadevi, Bhuleshwar, Girgaum and Walkeshwar. Ruthless kite duels often take place at Chowpatty Beach. |
