Sonam Kapoor has kickstarted Dussehra festivities with a set of stunning pictures of herself on her Instagram profile.

Sonam looked gorgeous in the white anarkali with red floral patterns throughout. The attire featured a closed neckline, golden zari floral details at the bust and red piping. The white and orange striped silk dupatta added more festivity flavour to her look. “May Maa Durga bless us with passion and strength, courage and grace… as Vayu joyfully pulls me away to join the celebration. Happy Navratri! Happy Dussehra,” wrote Sonam in the caption.
Some pictures feature Vayu hugging his mama and joining in the festivities. Sonam refrained from showing Vayu’s face in the pictures. Vayu wore a grey and white full shirt and matching grey cotton trousers as he joined in the photoshoot.
Sonam minimally accessorised her look with a red choker featuring a statement golden pendant. She added statement golden earrings and wore her tresses in a bun. With a bunch of lotuses in one hand, Sonam looked festival-ready.

Dussehra is being celebrated throughout the country today. Every year, the celebrations of Dussehra are marked by burning the effigy of King Ravana in a larger-than-life fashion. People gather in the grounds and maidans and watch the burning of the effigy – this signifies the triumph of goodness over evil. Dussehra and Vijaya Dashami are celebrated on the same day. West Bengal marks Durga Puja during the time Navratri is celebrated in the rest of the country. The last day of Durga Puja is celebrated as Vijaya Dashami.
