The Modi Shahenshahi Atash Behram in Surat celebrated its 195th salgreh on 2nd October, 2018, with a ‘Machi’ at 7:00 am in Havan Geh. Attended by over a hundred Parsis, the highlight was the ‘Kavyani Zando’ procession which was paraded through the streets near the Atash Behram at 7:30 am. Parsis garlanded the ‘Zanda’, performed achhu michhu, donated cash or grains, and distributed sweets. As the procession returned to the Atash Behram, they sang ‘Chhaiye Hame Jarthosti’, followed by a Garba performance by the Parsi ladies, as the flag was hoisted atop the Atash Behram. A ‘Khushali nu Jasan’ was performed by thirty-seven mobeds, under the guidance of Vada Dasturji Cyrus Noshirwan Dastoor and Er. Faredoon Turel. The afternoon celebrations witnessed a gambhar (for men and children), followed by a religious talk by Shri Marzban Gyara organized by the Athornan Mandal at 6:00 pm. A jasan was performed in the Aiwisuthrem geh, followed by community dinner.
