my blogs.

 I lived in Maharashtra. In Maharashtra there are many colorful festivals, music and dance, heritage   and culture, food and cuisines. So first thing comes in our mind that what type of cloths they are wearing?

  So, in Maharashtra Women's wear (in city) Saree and Men's wear pant and shirt,
 (in village) women's wear saree in village called it as a (Lugade). And men's wear Dhoti and topi.

Language

Mother tongue of Maharashtra is Marathi. For instance, in the northwest parts of Maharashtra, Ahirani dialect is spoken.

   As you move the south konkan, you will hear many people speaking in Malvani- a dialect of Konkani. Then the Varhadi dialect can be heard from the people of Vidarbha region. However, whatever be region that you visit or the language that you hear,
      the hospitality offered by the people of Maharashtra will remain the same, now and always!
