The Kala Ghoda, literally meaning, the black horse, symbolizes art, freedom of expression for many and for the rest it's just another part of town.
From the 3rd - 11th of February, there's a Kala Ghoda Festival happening in town.. and i literally cursed myself for not having gone to this beautiful place ever before in my entire 19 years on existence in this city. I had the pleasure of going there for the first day and i was able to capture variety of folk dances, right from Rajasthan, Manipur, Karnataka, Gujarat and lots more I had never even heard of before! Apart from folk dances, in the late evening there was a performance by Sandip Soparkar and his troupe which completely enthralled me.. People were swaying to his beats and moves right there standing in the audience, and the men, well they couldn't take their eyes off the women who so gracefully moved on the stage.
Apart from the performances, there are so many stalls where there's a lot of interesting stuff happening!
This is one festival which should be a must-watch for all those who can make it there!

- like most of the things in life, have layers to them, which when dissected lose their essence, people too have to be known as a whole, not in spite of who they are, but because of who they are! it is these thoughts that lead you to knowing who you are... and that is where the joy of expressing your mind comes from, and this is the result of that endeavor!
