- Navratri is not a mine-yours festival! It is a festival of joy to be celebrated together! There is no small difference in it!
- Kirit Goswami
Sally was running and telling everyone - 'Come on, friends! Navratri is here, are you all ready?
So let's play Garba!'
After listening to him, the squirrel waggled its tail and said - 'Hey, I was waiting for this garbani, man!'
'Yes, it's going to be a lot of fun, wandering around!' Deer and Bear Bhai were also happy.
Slowly the whole forest gathered. Everyone had to celebrate Navratri very happily. Everyone was eager to play.
Vanu Bandara said - 'Friends, we will call Morbhai specially! Because, no one can take Garba like him! We will learn from them and play garba with them!'
'correct! That's true!' All supported Vanu's words.
Bearbhai suddenly remembered something and said - 'Morbhai is a special guest of Navratri and teaches us by playing Garba! But we will need a good singer to sing garba too!'
'Hey, those are our cuckoo sisters!' Vanu Bandara immediately exclaimed.
Bearbhai scratched his head and said - 'Oh! I had completely forgotten! So friends, let's hand over the task of singing garba to our beloved Koylabehan! Right!'
'Yes, yes, that's right!' All agreed. There Kabarbai said - 'I too will sing a few garba and provide tunes to the tune of Koylbhain!'
'Yes, that's right too!' Everyone including Vanu Bandara agreed.
Dabu Dedko jumped up and said - 'Brother, give me the job of playing DJ!'
Hey, Dubbhai DJ! Have a Navratri in the jungle and forget something? You have to do that! Get everyone dancing to the DJ's beat, ho! '
'Yes, it doesn't have to be said!' Dububhai spoke with satisfaction.
Then the responsibility of decoration was handed over to Sugari. Vanu Bandara accepted the task of bringing fruits for prasad. Giraffes, rabbits, squirrels, deer all showed their readiness to do different work.
Everyone was very fond of playing Garbe. All were doing their assigned tasks very diligently.
Finally, everyone's hard work paid off. Mandap, decoration, twinkling lights, DJ, everything was well arranged.
Is everything okay? A Vanu was checking together with Monkey, Bear Bhai etc., from one of the rates, Amu Rat and few of his companions came out angrily. Amu Rat fumed and started talking - 'No one even invited us? The whole forest will play Garbe and we will sit at what rate? We also know how to play garba! We also have a cool DJ! Or did no one remember us?'
Seeing such anger and outrage of Amu rat, no one said anything for a while. Then bearbhai calmed down Amu and said - 'Brother, we forgot that! All these arrangements had to be made so...'
After interrupting Bearbhai's talk, Amu Rat started saying angrily - 'Have you forgotten us? So we live in the rate? So we are small?'
'No, no, rat brother! It's not like that...' Vanu Bandara tried to say something, but Amu stopped him, exasperated - 'You discriminate, Em! We can sing and play everything! We may live in the land but we are members of the forest!'
'Yes, yes, that's it!' Bearbhai said.
'Then why can you forget us? Why our neglect? We will not let this Garba program happen! Let's spoil everything now! Come on, comrades!'
Amu said and all the mice started jumping. Everyone began to whisper - 'Let's break everything! Let's carve everything! This is how we must avenge the injustice done to us!'
All the rats were about to jump out and start vandalism, when Morbhai very politely told them - 'Stop, friends! This is not good! Navratri is not a mine-yours festival! It is a festival of joy to be celebrated together! There is no small difference in it! It is our fault that you could not be invited and we sincerely apologize for that mistake. In fact, there were so many tasks that something was forgotten! But there is no need to worry! Even anger is useless! However, if you got it wrong, we all apologize and invite you! Come, all of you join the party!'
Morbhai's words fell on the throats of Amu Rat and his companions. Everyone was embarrassed. Amu said - 'Well, we got a little too angry! Just spoke and expressed a lot of wrong outrage! Forgive us all for that too!'
'Yeh hui na baat!' said the wild monkey, jumping up. Then Bearbhai said - 'Brother, no one needs to apologize to anyone! No one needs to be mistaken! We are all friends! And friends have to be together in happiness and sorrow and have fun! We have to understand each other and have mutual love, cooperation!'
'That's true...!' Amu Rat agreed.
'So come on, do you want to play Garba or talk!' Bearbhai said jokingly.
Everyone burst out laughing. And then everyone started playing garba together very cheerfully.
Navratri this time became memorable for everyone in the whole jungle!
