Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Suata – a folk tale
Bundelkhand is known for its culture and identity, similarly through my documentary I have shown a unique tradition of Bundelkhand in which virgin girls worship the feet of a demon named Suata. This puja is celebrated on Ashwini's Shukla Purnima i.e. Sharad Purnima where girls who have been virgin for years wash the feet of the demon and on the same day the marriage of Tesu and Jhinjhiya is also performed. Only after that can unmarried girls get married. This tradition is celebrated with great pomp throughout Bundelkhand.
हिन्दी: सुआटा - एक लोक कथा
बुन्देलखण्ड अपनी संस्कृति और पहचान के लिए जाना जाता है, उसी तरह मैंने अपनी डॉक्युमेंट्री के माध्यम से बुन्देलखण्ड की एक अनोखी परंपरा दिखाई है जिसमें कुंवारी लड़कियाँ सुआटा नामक राक्षस के पैर पूजती हैं। यह पूजा अश्विनी शुक्ल पूर्णिमा यानी शरद पूर्णिमा को मनाई जाती है जिसमें वर्षों से कुंवारी लड़कियां राक्षस के पैर धोती हैं और उसी दिन टेसू और झिंझिया का विवाह भी किया जाता है। इसके बाद ही अविवाहित लड़कियों की शादी हो सकती है। यह परंपरा पूरे बुंदेलखण्ड में बड़ी धूमधाम से मनाई जाती है।
