"નવરાત્રીના આ પાવન પર્વની મા દુર્ગાની આરાધના સાથે જોડાયેલા લોકો જુદી જુદી રીતે ઉજવણી કરી રહ્યા છે. શ્રદ્ધા અને ભક્તિના આવા જ ભાવથી મેં પણ “આવતી કળાય માડી આવતી કળાય” નામે એક ગરબાની શબ્દરચના કરી છે. મા જગદંબાના અનંત આશીર્વાદ હરહંમેશ આપણા સૌ પર બની રહે….. #AavatiKalay"

"I thank Purva Mantri, a talented upcoming singer, for singing this Garba and presenting such a melodious rendition of it. #AavatiKalay"
