SHOCKING: Bathukamma songs reverberate in detroit | Mind Blowing Facts

The Global Telangana Association (GTA), Detroit Chapter, hosted a grand celebration of Bathukamma, the floral festival of Telangana, at the Novi Civic Center Hall which showcased the rich culture and heritage of the Telangana community.

Hundreds of women and families thronged the venue and sang and danced around the beautifully-arranged flowers in praise of Goddess Gauri. The songs narrated the stories of Goddess Gauri and her husband Lord Shiva, and the dances reflected the festive spirit and energy of the women. The four-hour-long festival provided a great opportunity for the community to bond and share their heritage with others.
