    Nostalgic .... Bathukamma songs

    Dassera celebrations always take me back a couple of decades when we used to celebrate the bathukamma festival with great pomp!!

    I participated in those celebrations quite diligently year after year for decades, you would think I would have all the songs memorized (atleast a couple!!) Nope, because my eyes were on the yummy prasadam that came after the songs.

    So, coming to the point...do you celebrate/participate in Bathukamma festivities?
    Do remember any songs that you can share?
    Happy Dassera,
    drjp
