Surat’s Swastik Garba Group to rock Navratri with 'He Maare Mahisagar Ne Aare Dhol'

Surat's Swastik Garba Group, a well‑known ensemble that has performed at city festivals for several years, confirmed its program for the upcoming Navratri celebrations. The troupe said it will open its nightly sessions with the upbeat song 'He Maare Mahisagar Ne Aare Dhol', a track that has gained popularity on regional radio and streaming platforms.

Organisers highlighted that the song's fast tempo and traditional percussion are designed to encourage participants to dance with greater vigor. The group plans to stage the performance on the main ground near the Surat Municipal Corporation building, where crowds are expected to gather from early evening until midnight.

Local residents and visiting devotees have expressed enthusiasm, noting that the Swastik group's reputation for lively choreography adds a fresh dimension to the festival. Authorities have cleared the venue and arranged basic amenities, anticipating a turnout of several thousand spectators over the nine nights of Navratri.
