A charming village called No. Dagam. A beautiful forest near the village. Different types of animals and birds live in the forest. Let everyone rejoice and rejoice. This forest is ruled by the forest king Sher Singh. In the forest there lived a naive elephant brother. Very naive in nature but kind and smiling.

A special sibling of elephants is the batuk monkey. May the friendship of both be highly praised in the forest. Go with him wherever he goes. Move around, play, study together. Hatibhai is happy eating and drinking. He finds it very tough to walk with his huge body. When the batuk monkey bursts and reaches everywhere.

Many festivals are celebrated in Nandgam every year. Even in this, animals and birds of this forest are very fond of Ras-Garba, so Navratri should be organized in a grand manner.

Renu bear lives in this forest. Very proud and jealous by nature. Can't do anyone good and can't even see. He is very fond of Ras-Garba. That's why he can do many types of steps, garba and in Navratri he always becomes a winner. That is why he became arrogant.

Batuk monkey is very fond of playing ras-garba. But he never takes part in any competition. Just play ras-garba alone. When Hathibhai used to sit and watch him play.

Like every year this year also Navratri was organized by Sher Singh in the forest. It was announced that this year only our traditional ras-garbas would be played, no one would play in fancy steps. Also, various competitions are held for nine days. On the tenth day, the final competition will be played between the winners. At the end the winners will be awarded.

Reinu Bear was shocked to hear about the planning of Navratri. He should just practice Ras-Garba in the morning and evening.

Once upon a time Rinu Bear was practicing. Hathibhai passed by in his fun. Renu Bear saw Hatibhai and he deliberately teased Hatibhai and said - Hey, Hatibhai, why are you so slow, let's go. Walking briskly.'

Hatibhai looked down at Rinu Bear. He said - Hey bear brother, I am a huge animal, don't go away from me.

Reinu the bear said with anger - I know that you are a gigantic animal. You can only walk. There was no talk of running.

Hathibhai said calmly - said the truth, Bearbhai. But what are you doing here?

Rinu Bear twisted his mouth and said - I am practicing Ras-Garba here, which no one can do in your birth.

Hatibhai got angry. He said - Look Bear, it is wrong to be proud and it is not good to make fun of someone.

Bearbhai also started saying as if in a fighting mood - this is not pride, but if you say so, compete with me in Ras-Garba this year. Let's see who will be the winner.

Hathibhai was confused for a while. He thought and said to Bearbhai in a rage - Well, I accept your condition. I will definitely participate in the Ras-Garba competition this year.

Hathibhai and Bearbhai went in different directions. Bearbhai used to be very happy in his mind or Hathibhai had difficulty even walking, why play ras-garba?

On this side, Hatibhai started getting confused. He told his special brother Vandarabhai everything and asked him to find a solution. Vandarabhai thought and said - Look elephant, I know a few ras-garba. I will teach you if you say so?

Hatibhai said yes. Then Hatibhai and Batuk monkeys practice Ras-Garba in the morning and evening. Now the body of the batuk monkey is small and the elephant is a huge animal. If he raises one of his front legs, he has to rush, if he turns around, the leaves of who knows how many trees will be broken, if he raises his back leg, he will run over small and large animals.

Batuk monkey was confused. He started thinking that if Hathibhai practices like this, the forest will suffer a lot. Hence Hatibhai should be taken to a big ground for practice. Then the Batuk monkeys and elephants reached a large plain near the forest. Practice there every day. In just a few days, Hathibhai learned a good Ras-Garba. Now playing the Ras-Garba of Hatibhai did not harm anyone.

Navratri days have started. Reinu Bear was not going to back down. It stays ahead in every round. On this side Hathibhai was also involved in the contest. Anandit would play ras-garba carefully, taking care not to harm anyone. They matched Renu Bear in every round.

Thus nine days of Navratri passed. The last day was the final contest. Along with Renu Bear, Giraffe Brother, Tiger Brother, and Elephant Brother were also included. Competition started between all four. The elephant brother walks ahead, followed by the reindeer bear, the tiger brother and the giraffe brother. Vanraja Shersingh was the judge.

Sher Singh was very happy to see Hathibhai playing Ras-Garba. Hathibhai's body was huge but his body shape was very good. Finally the result was announced. In which Renu Bear came second and Hatibhai came first. Rinu Bear's mouth fell. He regretted his pride. All the animals and birds greeted Hatibhai with applause.
