Creativity Seen In The Designer Clothes Of Ravana In Patna

The tradition may be centuries old but the look is definitely new. Effigies of Ravan, Meghnad and Kumbhakaran to be burnt here at Gandhi Maidan during Dusshera festivities have designer clothes this year.

"Designer clothes have replaced the traditional clothes of three effigies this year to make them more attractive to young people," Ashok Sudhakar, the man behind the new look, told IANS here Saturday.

Sudhakar and his team of eight artisans had a challenging task stitching the clothes. "We took help of computers to design the clothes for the three effigies," he said.

According to Sudhakar, flax was used in place of cloth for the effigies. "It was a great experience for us with many ups and downs in the last few weeks," he said.

The new look effigies are a big hit, particularly among the youth. "We were lauded and praised not only by the Ramlila organising committee but also by common people," he added.

"People are happy with the new look effigies," said Amit Kumar, member of the organising committee, adding that except the designer clothes of effigies, nothing else had changed.

Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, Railway Minister Lalu Prasad and several MPs and legislators are expected to attend the burning of effigies here Sunday evening.

Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Kundan Krishnan said foolproof security arrangements have been made for the event.
