Dussehra - Durga Puja
Dussehra (also called Durga Puja) is marked by the worship of Goddess Durga. The common theme in all the celebrations is the triumph of good over evil.
Today, the whole sequence of good vs. evil is played out culminating in burning the effigy of Ravana. The only place (that i know of) that this is done in Mumbai is here at Shivaji Park in Mahim. Sorry I couldn't stay to get photos of it burning, it was just too crowded already!

guess my confusion came with the sea right across from shivaji park being called "Mahim bay"
and the sports club located there called "mahim sports centre"!
Ravan effigy burning is done at hundreds of places across the city...at a locality level..in small parks and grounds...yes..shivaji park, dadar is one of the more famous ones...but ppl all over the city do it....
Happy Dussehra to every visitors of this blog. May You have All blessings from Lord Ram on Dussehra
