Live music for a garba and dandiya night in Borivali, Mumbai
Chandavarkar Road fills with chaniya choli shoppers in the weeks before, societies book their grounds early and for nine nights the neighbourhood plays garba from dusk until late. A singer who can hold the circle is the most important booking an organiser makes.
The set begins with slow, traditional garba while the circles form, picks up with dandiya numbers as the ground fills and finishes with a long, fast round. The loudspeaker hours the authorities allow are checked before the schedule is printed, and the sound is planned around them.
Grounds in the western suburbs vary from a society compound for a few hundred to a large open ground for several thousand. The band and the sound are sized to match, and on the busiest nights a second vocalist shares the load so the energy does not drop after midnight.

Borivali, the garba suburb
In October, Borivali becomes the garba suburb of Mumbai. Chandavarkar Road fills with chaniya choli shoppers in the weeks before, the society grounds are booked early and for nine nights the neighbourhood plays garba from dusk until late. The Gujarati population is the largest in the city, and the knowledge of the songs and the steps is high. A singer who can hold the circle is the most important booking an organiser makes.
Grounds, permits and the permitted hours
Borivali grounds range from society compounds for a few hundred to large open grounds for several thousand. The corporation and the police give permission, the permitted loudspeaker hours are set each year, and the silence zones near hospitals are enforced. The band is planned to finish within the hours, with the fast closing round placed before the limit.
On the busiest nights a second vocalist shares the load so that the energy does not drop after midnight.
A set for a crowd that knows every step
The set begins slowly, with traditional garba while the circles form, picks up with dandiya numbers as the ground fills and finishes with a long, fast round. A Borivali crowd knows the folk songs and the film hits, and the transitions have to be clean. The committee’s list of requests is included.
