Hyderabad, Sept 22 (Maxim News) The First day of the Bathukamma festival, Engili Pula Bathukamma, brought a festive buzz to flower markets across the city, including Secunderabad Monda Market and the flower markets at Gudimalkapur and Mozamjahi Market.
Women and families were seen at flower stalls, carefully selecting seasonal blooms to prepare the traditional floral stacks. The markets were vibrant with Navaratri energy, transformed into a hub of music, chatter, and colourful activity.
