Bhaghoriya
The Bhaghoriya festival is especially important for the Bhils, just as Madai is unique for the Gonds. This Badhavgarh festival signifies romance, love and marriage. A young man will let a girl know that he has feelings for her, by applying “gulal” and if the female wishes to reciprocate her feelings, she will do the same.
