About
Our Maharashtra is well known not only in India but worldwide for its tradition and culture. One of the traditions and art is "Jatyavarchya Ovya" (Grindmill Songs). Finding art in society is not an easy task, but the Ovya is sung during weddings, While grinding grains, Crop harvest, and other such events are an ancient and popular tradition of Maharashtra. These songs are sung in the Marathi language. Maharashtrian women develop this art. She had no one to express her feelings so she use to express her feelings with Ovya. These songs help her to express emotions and communicate during difficult times. The beauty of these songs is such that they can even describe the beauty of nature and God's creations. These songs have a special place in my heart and I hope that you also take a step forward to appreciate the culture and traditions of Maharashtra by singing along with these folk songs.
