Delhi Food Walks's video: Bakra Pakaya Aur Khaya Day 3 Maagh Maroj Festival - SAAJE I Eating Meat Drinking Sur in Jaunsar

► Subscribe to Anubhav Sapra:  https://www.youtube.com/user/Delhifoodwalks Continuing with the Magh Maroj festive experience in Juansar Bawar, Uttarakhand, in today's episode we are about to introduce you to the Day 3 celebrations. This day following the ritualistic sacrifice of the goat is known as Saaje. Starting from today, the villagers visit each other's house in large groups and exchange festive greetings. To witness this heartwarming tradition we joined our host Suraj Prakash Ji who gave us an overview of this tradition.  We came to know that menfolk gather in groups and visit each and every house in the village. At every household, the jolly group is treated with meat, roti, local alcohol or tea. At some places the refreshment is followed by some impromptu traditional dance and song. The rough terrains and the numerous accents and descents doesn't dampen the spirit of the people. The sound of laughter, conversations, claps and hurried footsteps fills the whole atmosphere with a cheerful vibe. The womenfolk carry out this tradition as a separate group once the menfolk are done with it. Finally they all gather together in the open community space and perform folk dances like harul to the tunes of folk songs and instruments. Witnessing all these was truly an enriching and merry experience for us.  Once the village visit is complete the villagers then go on to meet their relatives in the vicinity and the tradition continues for the whole month.  About the host - Anubhav Sapra https://anubhavsapra.com/ Anubhav Sapra is an avid culinary explorer who loves to travel and explore different cuisines primarily the street food, not just for the sake of gustatory pleasure but also for quenching his deep thirst for nurturing new cultural connections through the kaleidoscopic canvas of food.
