Actress Thejaswini Sharma steps into the third day of Navaratri in red. With the city’s neon lights, traffic trails and bustling streets setting the mood for this Bangalore Times shoot, she brings together the glamour of Bengaluru after dark and the deeper meaning of the festive season. For her, Navaratri is much more than a celebration marked by colours, rituals and temple visits. It is a time when the energy of the divine feminine feels especially alive. I feel it’s a season when women become more aware of their femininity and the aura and energy around them. Every girl or woman has a Devi inside her. With red dedicated to Goddess Chandraghanta, Thejaswini sees the colour as a celebration of strength that doesn’t have to come at the cost of kindness. “Red represents love, energy, courage and the power of women. I strongly believe that divine feminine energy is nothing but love and power. Love is one of the most powerful energies in the universe, and when you combine it with courage and faith, it becomes even stronger. There is a misconception that being powerful means you cannot be kind. I feel you can be powerful and still show a lot of love. You can choose grace without losing your strength. That is what red means to me,” she shares.

I feel I’ve only just started, and there’s so much more to learn and unlearn. Her spiritual journeys are as much about the experience as the destination. “I find God in everyone. Going to temples calms you down and humbles you. I like just to be there, see the idol, soak in the aura and come back,” she adds. For Thejaswini, spirituality is not limited to a particular place or ritual. It is also about how one treats others and navigates everyday life.
