Parthiv Gohil to Observe Silence Before Rangilo Re 2026
Parthiv Gohil is a singer who performs at a festival called Rangilo Re.
Before the 2026 festival, he plans to spend the nine days of Navratri observing Arya Maun.
This means he will not speak or communicate through gestures, eye contact or writing during the day.
He says being quiet helps him focus and feel spiritually grounded.
At night, he will perform energetic Garba music for the festival audience.
Rangilo Re lasts for nine nights and combines music, dance and devotional moments.
Its previous edition drew about 30,000 people each night, according to the article.
The festival also opened two extra halls as attendance grew.
Singer and composer Parthiv Gohil plans to observe Arya Maun throughout all nine days of Navratri before performing at Rangilo Re 2026.
