The Ras festival is a vibrant celebration primarily observed in the Indian state of Gujarat. It is associated with the traditional dance form known as Garba, which involves rhythmic clapping and circular movements. The festival typically takes place during the month of Sharad Purnima, coinciding with the full moon, and is dedicated to the worship of Lord Krishna. During the Ras festival, communities come together to participate in lively dance performances, often accompanied by folk music. Colorful attire, including traditional chaniya choli for women and kurta for men, adds to the festive atmosphere. The event fosters a sense of unity and cultural pride among participants.
