Gudi Padwa is an auspicious festival for Marathi and Konkani Hindus. It celebrates the traditional New Year according to the lunisolar calendar. During this time, houses are adorned with flowers and vibrant colors. Traditional dances, mouth-watering foods, and street processions are all part of the celebration.
This year it will be celebrated on 9 April 2024.
In the state of Maharashtra, the word “Gudi” refers to a flag that can be seen in most homes during the festival. Meanwhile, “Padwa” or “pāḍavā” comes from the Sanskrit word that means to mark the day the moon appears after the new moon, and the first day after the new moon. Many believe the flag denotes the official flag of Brahma, while others believe it symbolizes the flag of Indra.
According to Hindu texts and traditions, Lord Brahma created the universe on Gudi Padwa. Additionally, he introduced the concepts of months, years, and days to people.
In Andhra Pradesh, the festival is known by the name of Ugadi. Considering the story of the creation of the universe, devotees also worship Lord Brahma on Gudi Padwa.
The festival marks the harvesting of Rabi crops. Many also celebrate it as the day of Lord Rama’s coronation in Ayodhya after his return from defeating Ravana. He was welcomed with a joyous celebration.
Another story related to the festival is the commencement of the Shalivahan calendar after their victory against the invasion of the Huns during the 1st century.
The festival is celebrated in many ways, including decorating a bamboo stick with silk-like fabric. Houses are decorated with garlands made of leaves, neem, and mango leaves.
