While the rest of the country decorates stages for Navratri, Basohli in Kathua performs its 114-year-old Ramlila in an open field under the open sky. Born from a trade link with Amritsar and a donation of 15 silver coins in 1912, the tradition now blends devotion with spectacle, from rain at Sita's birth to Hanuman soaring 150 metres on a wire.
