Ashadi Ekadashi Celebrations at Mumbai's Churchgate Station

Ashadi Ekadashi is a special Hindu festival celebrated in the month of Ashadha.

This year, it was celebrated with great enthusiasm at Mumbai's Churchgate railway station.

Devotees performed traditional dances like phugadi and sang devotional songs called kirtan.

The station was decorated with lights, and everyone, including commuters, police, and railway officials, joined in the festivities.

This festival marks the start of a special period called Chaturmas, when Lord Vishnu is believed to sleep.

People fast, pray, and perform rituals to seek his blessings for prosperity and well-being.

It's a time of joy, unity, and spiritual devotion.
