Story of Dough balls

Since airport look is never going to happen... #airport #reels will do. Long legs and #denim colour that I need..!! #Navratri, literally meaning "nine nights," is the Hindu #festival dedicated to #Durga—the feminine form of divinity and her nine forms, from the fierce sword-wielding Kaalratri to the smiling creator of the universe Kushmanda. This festival is observed in many ways, each unique to the region of #India in which it is celebrated. The Mumbai Cotton Exchange The interesting facades and their unique counterparts inside. Welcome to #BhuleshwarBhulbhulaiya a curated tour by @khaki.tours, showcasing a maze of 10 square foot area, depicting daily madness of shoppers, religious fanfare of 100 temples or so, underlined by historical snippets that crosses the socio-economic barriers. Folklore says that the name ‘Bhuleshwar’ came into existence because the #Gods of Bhuleshwar forgot their way after returning from the sojourn in heaven and were found wandering through the lanes, in search for their rightful abode (“Bhula” = Forgetful; “Eshwar” = God). Rightfully named as the temple hub, none of the #temples are ornate or have grand #shrines, and they definitely do not feature in any #tourist #map or circuit of #mumbai For a person with so many faults and personality defects... On a body that is equally weathered with time, scars that will continue eating up confidence, and lack of sense... THIS is the most profound #ink that I connected so well with, and after so long. Rupi Kaur and @wabisabitattooart blending perfectly for my 6th #tattoo. Thank you Sheeka for the most amazing, and painless experience. This is the most vulnerable I have been on social media FYI. Neon is a thing for a reason. It went out of fashion in the ’80s and ’90s because of LEDs, but still nothing could replace the soul and passion of neon, and its strange addiction. When your alma-mater houses one of the most incredible snippet of Industrial Revolution - The Bessemer Converter, the last working example in #UK which was used by the #British Steel Corporation in Workington until 1974-75. The converter was designed to produce 25-tonnes of steel at once, which is 3X the product from Victorian converters, and was decommissioned after its last production in 1974. Bessemer process was a game-changer; the first inexpensive industrial process that single-handedly paved the way for the Industrial Revolution, a move from the Iron age to the Age of Steel. #throwback #tbt #sheffield #universityofsheffield #UoS #kelham #museum #warhistory #britishhistory #steelindustry #travelogues #travelstories #travelblogger Nothing defines the #mumbai spirit as the 10-day extravaganza of #ganeshchaturthi - there's an electric fervour in the air from the decked up streets, to equally thematically decorated and grandiose idols. Marking the start of festivities in India officially as per legends and stories, 2022 seems to be a better year for the gods also clearly. Following Shiva's command that anyone beginning a new undertaking, must worship Ganesha since he will remove all obstacles, irrespective of the magnitude. With no COVID restrictions this year, Mumbai has geared up with double the energy after two years of lockdown trauma. #obstacleremoved
