The ninth edition of Mumbai’s biggest ‘off-season’ jagran came to a close on Saturday at the
Film City in
Goregaon with over three lakh devotees of
Mamtamai Shri Radhe Maacongregating for the event. The
Ma Jagdambe Jagran, which was held on the day of Shri Radhe Maa’s birthday, saw musical performances by several notable performers including four-time Filmfare winner Anuradha Paudwal, Bhojpuri superstar Manoj Tiwari, Padmashri Anup Jalota, music director Sanjeev Kohli, bhajan samrat Vinod Agarwal, and Punjabi singer Arvinder Singh.
Devotees from across the world cheered, clapped and danced with joy as Shri Radhe Maa made her grand entry from the sky on a cubicle decorated with flowers. The cubicle, her aasan, was lowered onstage with the help of a crane.
Devotees arrived at the jagran from all parts of the country and the world. Seating arrangements for 20,000 and standing space for 1 lakh devotees had been made for the jagran. However, the number of attendees the event attracted were way beyond the expectations of the organisers and the band of 200 volunteers managing the event. Devotees, rich and poor, saw the jagran as a day of thanks-giving. “I sing for a living but I come at Devi Maa’s door several times a year even when there are no performances. Her doorstep is a place of miraculous blessings. Nothing I say can convey her powers. It is a thing to be experienced,” said iconic Punjabi folk singer Sardool Sikander, who also performed at the venue.
All devotees were treated to a langar dinner at the jagran by the volunteers guided by Manmohan Gupta, a devotee of Mamtamai Shri Radhe Maa.
