Nighttime Burning of Ravana Effigy in Kochi India Dussehra Celebration

by Freda Nguyen

Deep in the night within Kochi, India, a towering effigy of Ravana stands engulfed in bright orange flames against the dark sky. The fire illuminates the surrounding crowd of spectators who watch the traditional Dussehra celebration unfold. Smoke rises steadily into the darkness above the historic waterfront area. The intense light from the burning structure casts long shadows on the faces of the onlookers gathered nearby. The raw energy and cultural significance of the festival as the figure collapses into embers under the night sky.
