Welcome to ikolam Ms.Latelatif! :0
I loved your sense of homour!
You represent those group of women who don't give up on their traditions no matter how busy they get. Thank you for sharing your ishstyle with all of us here. I can't wait to see how you celebrate Diwali. :0

Mumbai istyle as in limited space or busy schedules?? Whichever it is, your golu is really cute. How about a closer look at those marapaachi dolls and I love those masks on top - can you zoom that for us too please?? Good to know that lots of people still follow traditions even though they hardly have enough time - well done

Look at the chettiar and his lady sitting and chattiing casually! Are they not in Mumbaikars?
Though the golu is small, your pooja with lot of flowers seems to be elaborate! Good!

Jyothy, you do not want prize, but like to have our valuable comments no?
I love your golu. It has everything a golu needs. Looks devine also. The flowers esp, the lotus looking fresh. Chettiar jodi is very cute.Did you sing anysong or chant any slokas in praise of the goddess? where is the chundal prasadam!
I am asking toomuch no?)

Dear Jyothi Mam,
Your Golu arrangement is very cute. I liked those chettiyaar jodi. Chettiar amma looks so casual and chatting with chettiar. Your flower arrangement and pooja decorations looks divine.
