How to get Stunning Looks in Saree

Un vestido perfecto, saree is the most elegant and the most amazing attire for a woman which gorgeously takes off her beauty to just another level.  Originated from the prakrit word “Sattika”, saree is basically the traditional outfit of an Indian woman. However, because of its glamorously subtle look it has gained a catchy repo symbolizing the Indian heritage and culture and a wardrobe desire for the ladies round the world.

saree styling

Saree, undoubtedly, is the most versatile outfit which can be beautifully draped in various ways and styles. Ranging from 5 yards to 9.5 yards length depending on the style of wearing, this dress is an outstanding creation which can be worn if not daily occasionally to add on a totally smashing effect to your personality.

Now-a-days, not only ladies but young gals too can carry the “saree look” in uniquely classy ways. By using interesting methods of mix and match, you can go for a bold cum stylo gape this season.

Try out the styles explained below and enchant yourself with a captivating experience.

  • For the ones who feel wearing saree to be a mess, they can follow different styles to bring out the best fashion for them. A very fancy tip by one of the prominent designer is to go babylicious is to replace the blouse and petticoat with a spaghetti top/tee and legging/slim-fit denim and then wear the saree over them. For this you can go for a light weight crepe or georgette fabric saree for easy roaming as well as to get a perfect look. This would definitely add a bashing look to your persona. For Diwali, embroidery or sequins on the saree border can be accounted.
  • Another designer suggests for ready-to-wear sarees which surely ease offs the problem of draping a saree. You can zip the saree up and reduce your fight with it.

A regular one can be worn like a skirt, gown, dhoti, gracian style or in any other way that makes you look sexy. Create your own trend and sizzle the floor.

Girls should not avoid wearing sarees but instead they should develop innovative techniques for carrying a saree and get over the illusion of saree as a dress for oldies.

[Exclusive Pictures] Yo Yo Honey Singh in Udaipur

All is well that ends well!!

The most awaited event of the season for Udaipurites finally held today, i.e. 13th of Dec, 2012, with lots of pomp and show. The live concert of Punjabi Rapper Yo Yo Honey Singh by Evershine Event took place in the Pacific University campus.

A rush of people especially the youth came by to attend this concert with great enthusiasm and excitement.

The show began with RJ Ankit’s gup shup session and few performances by the zealot audience and a dance group.

The audience was eagerly waiting for Honey Singh to felicitate the event as soon as possible, march to the stage quickly and start with his rapping. A patient hour of waiting swept off and the bang of Honey Singh coming or not coming began to startle the hoi polloi.

Eventually, came the moment of arrival of the desi munda Yo Yo Honey Singh along with Alfaaz and J-Star who rocked the stage with their songs like Brown Rang, Angrezi Beat, Gabru, Haye Mera Dil and More.. 🙂

The main event started at around 10p.m. in the night wherein Honey Singh sprinkled a storm of songs for the super delighted fans. Everyone enjoyed and danced to the tunes of rapper.

All the arrangements regarding the event were done pretty good. A swarm of police force was engaged for high security of the world fame rapper and also to control the unwanted and notorious audience from being pain in the neck during the event.

Still, after so much of protection, the only part which was unsatisfactory was the behavior of Udaipurites towards the event. The crowd was not being well mannered or civilized and subsequently created nuisance in the concert by destroying the property of the event organizers which made a seriously bad impact on the guests.

Apart from that, the show went a great hit in its opening session creating a sense of hope and expectation in the minds of Udaipurites for the commencement of many more celebrities in Udaipur in future for such concerts.

Lastly, for those who could not make it to the concert due to any reason and for the ones who were part of the concert, here are some of the snapshots by UdaipurBlog.com to glance at. Hope, you enjoy going through them. 🙂

Diwali celebration with Fascinating Indian Beliefs

India is a country with a heritage culture wherein lots of festivals are celebrated every other month. These festivals are celebrated with great zeal and are related to some or the other deity.  Likewise, Diwali or Deepawali, festival of lights, is celebrated enthusiastically and brings hope and ecstasy among the Indians. It comes with the motive of triumph of good over evil and symbolizes the demotion of darkness and showing the path of light. It is not a one day celebration but an extension of five days. These five days are of much importance as every day is celebrated merrily in India and has its own significance.

It is believed that many events took place in the historic time which ultimately got connected with this festival over time. Various legends have contributed their part in merrymaking of this carnival and the reason behind celebrating Diwali varies in different parts of the country.

Some of the Mythological stories which are associated with the festive of lights are shared below. These stories are really interesting to know and everyone should at least have a look at them once.

  • Return of Lord Rama and Sita Maiya to Ayodhya

The most common and substantial reason behind Deepawali celebration was the return of Lord Rama to Vrindavan after saving Mother Sita from the clench of Ravana (the demon king of Lanka) and defeating him at his hometown. Ravan had kidnapped Sita during their exile after King Dashratha sent them to live in the woods for 14 years. After their return, the citizens of Ayodhya celebrated their come back and lit the whole city with lighting diyas.

 

  • Demolition of Demon Narakasura by Lord Krishna

The demon king of Pragjyotishpur (a province to the south of Nepal), Narakasur had managed to acquire ultimate powers and with these powers he began to threaten the three worlds. Eventually, he was defeated and killed by Lord Krishna. To symbolize the triumph, Lord Krishna smeared his forehead with the blood of Narakasur. He returned early morning on the day of Chaturdashi. After that, the lady folks massaged his body with scented oil and washed his body to remove the demon’s blood. Since then, this custom of taking oil bath early in the morning has become a traditional practice in different parts of the country.

 

  • Apotheosis of Mother Goddess Lakshmi

According to a historic mythology, the Mother Goddess Lakshmi on the new moon day (Amaavasya) of Karthik Shukla Paksh emerged from the ocean of milk called as Sheer Sagar during Sagar Manthan by the Gods (Devtas) on one side and demons (Rakshasa) on the other. She came with the gifts of wealth and prosperity for the humankind. In honor, Goddess Lakshmi’s pooja was done and as such from that day, this tradition is followed by the Indians.

 

  •  Story of King Bali and Vaman Avatar

One of the stories includes King Bali and Lord Vishnu in the avatar of Vaman (a dwarf). King Bali was a generous hearted person in nature but he was very arrogant and boastful too. Many of the Gods approached and requested Lord Vishnu to teach the king a lesson.

Vishnu thus took the avatar of a dwarf priest and went to meet King Bali. He complimented the King with the world’s most powerful person and asked the king to give him that piece of land of land which covers his three footsteps. The king without thinking agreed to do the same. Thus, Lord Vishnu converted into his real avatar and covered the whole land, sky and the universe. The rest which was left for Bali was underground. So, King Bali was finally sent there.

 

  • Return of the Pandavas

Mahabharta, the Hindu epic says that the five Pandava brothers- Yudhishthhira, Bhima, Arjuna, Nakula and Sahdeva were sentenced to 13 years of exile after being defeated by the Kauravas- Duryodhana and his ninety nine brothers. After spending 13 years in forest they returned back to their kingdom on the new moon day i.e. on Karthik Amaavasya. To welcome them, the people of the kingdom celebrated their happiness by lighting lamps/diyas all over the city.

 

  • Crowning of King Vikramaditya

This is another story which again connects to the foundation for Diwali celebration. The greatest Hindu King- Vikramaditya was coroneted on this day of Karthik Amaavasya and his kingdom’s people celebrated this moment with the blessings of lighting tiny diyas.

 

Below are the festivals which are celebrated in five days along with Diwali and the some of the above mythologies are associated with these days.

Hope these stories help everyone in knowing the cause of celebrating this bright festival.

  • The first day of Diwali starts with Dhanteras which is also known as Dhanvantri Triodashi.  It is in fact the 13th day of Krishna Paksh and it is said that on this day Lord Dhanvantri came out of the ocean with Ayurveda for the benefit of mankind. This day marks the beginning of Diwali.

As we all know, “Dhan” relates to money, wealth. So, on this day, people buy new things from the market specially made of metal in the hope of bringing happiness and prosperity to their family.

  • The second day is also known as Choti Diwali or better known as Narak Chaturdashi. On this day, Lord Krishna destroyed Demon Narkasur and made the world free from its fear.

So, on this day, people take oil bath in the morning and light lamps in the night and burn crackers.

  • The third and the most important knock the entry of main festival Diwali or Deepawali.  On this day, divine Goddess Lakshmi is worshiped by the people to achieve blessings of wealth and prosperity from her. This day is celebrated as the day of victory of goodness over evil and light over darkness. So, people merrily light lots and lots of diyas or lamps on this day and visit the market to enjoy the decorations of the market.
  • Next day of Diwali comes the day of Govardhan Puja or Padwa. On this day, devotees build heaps of cow dung to symbolize the Govardhan Mountain that Lord Krishna lifted up with his finger to save the villagers of Vrindavan from rain. Also, this day is celebrated as Annakoot by the North Indians which represents as mountain of food.
  • The fifth day is celebrated as the festival of Bhai Dooj. This is special day for all the sisters. It is believed that on this day, Yamraj(the Lord of death) visited her sister Yamuna. He blessed her sister with a gift that whoever visits her on this day shall be freed from all the sins.

From that day, brothers visit their sister’s house on this day and present gifts to them and enquire for their welfare.

This day also marks with the end of lighting lamps and celebrating five day festival.

Interestingly, in Jainism, the next day of Diwali is also embraced with the day of Mahavira Swami’s Nirvana. On this day, Lord Mahavira attained the knowledge of omniscience (Keval Gyana) and achieved Moksha at Pavapuri on Oct 15th ,527 B.C., on Karthik Chaturdashi. Thus, this day is also celebrated as the day of New Year by the Jainis.

All these Indian beliefs are considered to be the vital cause of celebration of the most awaited fiesta i.e. Diwali/Deepawali. After reading them, I think everyone will gain a little bit of knowledge for Diwali and the reason behind celebration it.

Dussehra-Diwali Fest : What’s Good & Whats Bad in it !!

The City of Lakes is known for its exotic beauty and taste of culture. And Udaipurites have a great enthusiasm for different occasions and festivals and are active planners and participants for organizing different programs at any level. So in Udaipur, there is custom or simply a culture of organizing fests on every one or the other occasions.

Following the same fashion, every year in the time span of Dussehra to Diwali a special fest known as the “Dussehra- Diwali Mela” is coordinated at Town Hall, Udaipur for making the festival season more delightful and colorful for the citizens of Udaipur.

People from all the areas of the city along with nearby areas and bags of tourists with great zeal come to visit and enjoy the charm and awesomeness of the fare.

The fest being organized at such a great level has its own goods and bads.

Beginning with the arrangements, the overall condition of the fest is grooming every year with new and better facilities in it. After that too, some changes are still mandatory for the betterment of the fair.

  • Firstly, discussing about the water serving facility; this has been improved a lot from the past few years as before there were no such arrangements made for the convenience of the hoi polloi. The good part is water supply tanks have been provided in almost every area of the fair. But the bad part is that these tanks are continuously leaking water and are not being well maintained as a result of which the surroundings of these tankers have become dirty and full of mud.  Thus, there is no maintenance regarding water savage and sanitation of the fair campus.

Leaking Water tank

  • Apart from this, at other places too which are far from water containers, puddles of mud can be seen making the place dirtier and crummy. Due to this, people have a lot of problem in roaming. Everyone has to be careful and step ahead so as to save themselves from stepping down in the slush. Eventually, this has become the biggest and the worst problem which people are facing in the fete.

water puddle

  • The best thing about the fete is its security management. A police force has been set up for the security and proper management of the fest as well known celebrities are called up for their performances specially for this fete and also for the safety of Udaipurites. So to keep everyone in mind, fest has been highly secured.
  • As it is a fest, so to have a swing section for kids is natural and a must. All the arrangements regarding this part have been done well as always. But this section is being messed up by the people only as they throw tickets here and there and make the place dungy and thus make a bad impression for everyone else.

tickets thrown away

  • To add on, to maximize the elegance of the fiesta, water fountains have been embarked along with awesome preparations of lights. But again the sad part is during the period of fest these fountains are kept well maintained but rest of the year they are not even looked upon. These fountains should be regularly cleansed and made into work so that at the time of this season they don’t have to be sanitized every year and work only for the fest time.

Well, these are some of the issues to keep an eye on and the one’s having the negative side should be mended for the amelioration of the fest and the city to increase the craze of every individual for this fair and for enhancing the charm of tourists to visit our city at this time point of time.

I may have forgotten some of the points to add. So, now I want something from the Udaipurites to convey. Replies would be awaited gladly. Up till then, adios.  🙂
