Jari Mari Temple SV Road Bandra

Jari Mari Temple SV Road Bandra, originally uploaded by firoze shakir photographerno1.

Goddess Jari Mari is an avatar of Goddess Parvati.. and is worshiped by most of the Maharashtrians here in Mumbai.. The vegetable vendors of Bandra Bazar Road are her devout followers.I have been fortunate to post her festival procession pictures of her Palki here at Flickr..Chintan and Jiten my two friends are members of this temple trust.. Story goes there was a pond here where the washermen washed clothes her statue was discovered from this pond and the British gave land to build this temple on Bandra SV Road.

Next to this erstwhile Temple of Goddess Jari Mari are the two workshops of CJ Arts and Kedar.
They allow me to shoot their workshops , speaks highly of their love for the barefeet Muslim Blogger of Mumbai.
