It has barely been days since Mumbai's Kala Ghoda Arts Festival (KGAF) wound up and another part of the city is already been celebrated. The 9th edition of the Chembur Festival 2020 is currently on in Mumbai and will remain so till Monday 17 February.
It is an arts festival, very much on the lines of KGAF where an entire street comes alive with art works and stalls. The one artwork that caught everyone's eyes this time was the selfie point where some pretty-looking post boxes are installed. This makes you realize that we hardly use post these days.
You will also find stalls selling a wide variety of items. But what makes the Chembur Festival stand apart is that it has a much larger space. So much so that they have a separate lane for food and beverages. They serve Chaat, Dabeli, Pani Puri, cakes, soda, ice gola and some heavy food items too, both veg and non-veg.

Today the Chembur Festival also saw a musical concert by singer Amit Kumar, son of the legendary singer and actor Kishore Kumar, at the Chembur Gymkhana ground. Along with singing songs, he also kept the audience in splits with his funny acts.
There was also an display of dance with weapons by people from a Sikh group.
Here are some more pictures from the Chembur Festival 2020:
