If victory had a shape, in Maharashtra it would look like a gudi against the morning sky.

Every culture has its new year — ours comes with a flag on a bamboo pole and sugar around our necks.

Gudi Padwa greetings to a year that hopefully asks less of your patience and more of your joy.

Wishing you a Gudi Padwa full of new beginnings and sweetness.

May your Gudi stand tall with pride and prosperity this year.
