A party next door, a north Indian Kirtan, with lively music (live, of course) and dancing. The woman in the brownish sari is the principal singer/storyteller, reading verses about Durga and explaining them.

A party next door, a north Indian Kirtan, with lively music (live, of course) and dancing. The woman in the brownish sari is the principal singer/storyteller, reading verses about Durga and explaining them.
