The Spirit of Bombay: Kalaghoda festival

If I was in Mumbai this time of the year I would definitely be at Kalaghoda to witness the decade old festival that echoes the spirit of Mumbai. All I could get is the News coverage on NDTV 24x7. I would like to share with you what I gathered while watching NDTV.

The Kalaghoda festival is a unique platform for showcasing new talent and attracts hundreds of enthusiasts.

This year the Kalaghoda art festival looks bigger, brighter and more colourful. The otherwise commercial lanes of a business district now turn themselves into art exhibits.

Space is created for artists who feel that, art cannot be bound by closed walls and class divides of traditional art galleries.

True to the spirit of a street festival, day one had traditional acrobats from rural Maharashta.

If you are an Indian living in the US (like me), you should immeidately subscribe to DirecTv because:
  • It is the best TV service provider in the US in all respects.
  • NDTV 24x7 is the best Indian news channel.
  • DirecTv is the sole provider of NDTV 24x7 in the US.
