From the usual sweets and dry fruits to handicrafts and bags with antique looks, Bengalureans are engaged in buying a variety of gifts for their friends and family this Deepavali season.
The festive season has brought alive the bustling markets of the city, with shoppers thronging every store.
Jayanagar 4th Block shopping complex is one of the many areas where people are thronging. “Colourful diyas, clay diyas, and Ganesha and Lakshmi clay idols are what customers typically from the northern part of India find unique, especially during this season,” said Veena at one of the shops in the complex. She said that most of the items currently in demand are colourful rangoli stickers with the Deepavali wishes inscribed on them. “Jayanagar 4th Block is the one place where I think you can literally find everything, so you can come and shop at one go,” said Jyoti Raman, a shopper in the area.
