Grey color represents balanced emotions and keeps the person down-to-earth. This color is also appropriate for those who want to participate in Navratri celebrations and make a subtle style statement with this undertone color shade.

Celebrations of Navratri are already underway across the country and people from all walks of life have been celebrating the famous and magnificent Durga Puja or Navratri in their own unique ways. While Sharadiya Navratri 2022 began on 26 September 2022, it will continue for the next nine days till 5 October with Dussehra.

Devotees have been participating in fasting, festivities, and puja on each day as the nine days hold special significance in line with the nine incarnations of Goddess Durga. That being said, each day of the 9-day festival also has a designated colour that is considered significant and auspicious for devotees.

Today being the 6th day of Navratri marks the worshipping of Maa Katyayani who is the sixth avatar of Goddess Durga. There is a special colour for this day that devotees can consider wearing.
