Small roads, small villages, a 10-hour drive.
Arriving at the music festival , the 131st Harballabh, in Jalandhar.

An unannounced and unplanned concert, because over 50 people asked for it.
Manu is not worried to do this after only a half day’s notice.
Watch out for this man!.
Pinky is mobbed by his brothers.

Now it is 3 am Christmas morning: Is anyone tired here?
No, we want Pandit Jasraji!
Intense Bhakti......
..... I don’t know what he is saying…..
…….but I understand what he means.
Poor Panditji is being bombed by petals while he is singing his heart out…
…see, a big balloon of petals is about to land on him right now.
End of the concert, Christmas morning 6 am: The Shri Devi Talab Mandir temples are lit up.....
