Dandia Raas is a traditional folk
dance performed during the Navaratri festival in the western part
of India. The dance is an artistic enactment of a fight between Goddess
Durga and Mahishasura, a mighty demon king.
Its a fun dance with sticks ('Dandia') representing swords, and is set to a lively beat.
