August 2021 Update
Mumbai has two seasons, it is said, ‘Hot’ and ‘Hot and Wet!’ True, but there is a third, perennial at that; the season of Festivals and Celebrations. Mumbaikars live by feeling! While they take bomb-blasts and insurgency in resolute silence, they relish festivities with serious éclat and come August, even Nature sheds it benediction on Indian life-the verdant green of the drenched foliage, the luscious orange of the saffron sun, the pristine white clouds in the blue monsoon sky and the Tiranga flies high on Independence Day.

Come any festival or festivity, Mumbaikers dive in deep, the red, blue, purple of Jamnashtami the orange, white, green of the Indian flag, the radiant white of the Zoroastrian Navroz, the many colours of Rakshabadhan, we passionately celebrate with a smile on our lips and love in our hearts. So, too, do our loving students with open hearts and joyous ways. SPJ Sadhana revels in revelries!
