Gudi Padwa 2024: Gudi Padwa is an important festival of Maharashtra, marking the beginning of the Marathi New Year, and is celebrated on the first day of the Shukla Paksha of the Chaitra month, according to the Hindu calendar. It is a significant day for Hindus, as it symbolises the start of a new year filled with happiness, success, and prosperity. On this day, the Marathi community worships the Gudi, a symbol of prosperity, by hoisting it outside their homes. The belief is that this ritual brings blessings for the entire year.
Gudi Padwa 2024 is being celebrated on April 9, coinciding with the start of the Hindu New Year, Vikram Samvat 2081, and Chaitra Navratri. This festival is also known by various names such as Chaitra Pratipada, Ugadi, Cheti Chand, and Yugadi in different regions, signifying its widespread cultural significance. The connection of Gudi Padwa with the creation of the universe and its association with the victory of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj adds depth to its spiritual and historical importance in Maharashtra.
