Singers Atul Purohit & Achal Mehta,Vadodara’s Navratri(Video)
Vadodara, DeshGujarat
Vadodara’s Garba are always fascinating. In this video you can enjoy singing of Achal Mehta, a Navratri singer. RajAchal has uploaded this video on YouTube. More about Vadodara’s Navratri in RajAchal’s own words here:
“Achal Mehta’s Rishabh group in Vadodara, India performing for Samvedan trust - Maa Shakti has registered its name in the Limca Book of Records for the largest garba gathering, dancing in totally traditional dresses.
During Navratri, garbas are performed all around in the world but the true flavor has been retained in Baroda only. The garbas are performed by the girls and boys who wear traditional dresses only go around the Centre Stage often referred to Mataji’s temple. The circle varies from 15-35 and all the girls and boys follow a pattern based on the type of song.
These garbas are sung non stop and the duration of the garbas on any particular day would range from 2 to 5 hrs. Apart from the Garba players, large public presence also use to be there, which just come to the ground to listen the songs.
“Teen Taali” and “Heentch” garba steps form, have originated & popularized years ago from Vadodara and can be seen all garba gatherings.
Rishabh group every year composes new songs and they have a huge collection of CD and cassettes like Sur, Vrundavan and Fagan No Kaif. All the songs sung by this group are dedicated to Lord Krishna and Ambema. There is a lot of purity in the music also and in none of the songs you can hear remixes of Hindi Film songs and even in live shows. The garba event was shown live by Etv Gujarati and other national channels. In the video you can see Achal Mehta performing Live at Vadodara during Navtrari of 2006”

Vadodara’s Navratri videos are great. I liked the one at the top side(google video) in the first comment list.This is unmatch experience even on net. I wonder what would be an experience if I happen to be there in person.

I really enjoyed it. I use to participate in United Way of Vadodara at Old Padra Road. Now I am in USA, Enjoying Garba in USA but missing great time in Vadodara. Atul Purohit (Pela Dadhiwala Bhai) and Achal Mehta (Mucho wala) are two Kings of Vadodara Garba. Thanks for putting it togather.

Its great fun to see Baroda’s Garba in London. I am sure if you play garba once in Baroda you will never forget it. It will be golden days of your life. Disco dandia is Rubbish. Those who like Falguni Pathak and Disco Garba should see Baroda’s Garba once.
