Navratri is a widely celebrated Hindu festival across India, that transforms into a unique nine-night dance festival, possibly the world's longest, exclusively in the state of Gujarat. Over nine consecutive nights, people from villages and cities throughout the state assemble in open spaces to partake in the festivities. The ras garba music frequently incorporates tales of the relationships and emotions shared between Lord Krishna and the Gopis.
