Happy Navratri: The festive season is instantly made more fun with a dandiya dance off
On social media, the US Consulate documented everything from the rehearsals to a trip to buy the perfect chaniya cholis (embroidered blouses, colourful lehengas and mirror-work dupattas) as well as kafni pyjamas, ghagras and pagadis.
Watch Team USA go to Mumbai's famous Powar Dresswalle to pick up their dandiya outfits:

The US Consulate asked the Internet to vote for their favourite team. The efforts of both Team India and Team USA impressed many on social media.
"Both the teams are fabulous. But I'll vote for team USA since it's their first time. They are simply fantastic," wrote one person.
"We must appreciate their efforts to match with our team. In my opinion, each one is winner," wrote another.
"Good performance by both teams but I think it was nice of the US team to try a new dance style absolutely alien to their styles and they were very gracious in the dance performance," commented a third.
But, there could be only one winner. And the results were announced on social media just 16 hours before writing this.
