Men perform garba in sarees in Guj as penance for 200-yr-old curse
Men in sarees perform Garba in Ahmedabad every year in a tradition called 'Saduma na Garba'. The ritual dates back over 200 years to Saduben, who sought help from Barot community men after facing unwanted attention from a Mughal nobleman. When they failed to protect her and her child, she cursed them that their descendants would be cowardly.
