During Navaratri, Gondhal performance is a must in many Maharashtrian homes, especially in Worli Koliwada which has retained the traditional way of celebration. During the nine days, the Gondhalis (artists who perform Gondhal) are invited to homes to sing devotional songs accompanied by tuntuna, sambal and cymbals. He used to organise Gondhal performances in honour of Amba Bhavani of Pratapgadh. For Shivdata Bhaye, a resident of Worli Koliwada, a Gondhala performance on the fifth day of Navratri marks a huge family gathering every year. We organise Gondhal performances on Dwitiya..
