We, here at BirthiMane, NammaBengaluru, celebrated Navratri with family get-together on Sunday, 2nd October 2016 with relations coming home for lunch. About 35 people including senior member of the family, youngsters and children. Unfortunately we were missing our sons, Ravikanth-Vidya and Rishikanth, as they had previously committed programs.

However, lunch was good catering done by Adige Navuda, buffet in the ground floor.
