Invitation and brochure of Ramsons Bombe Mane 2025

 21^st edition of Ramsons Bombe Mane

As the monsoon is waning, nature is in the revival mode with every tree blushing with happy green and getting ready for the winter which is just around the corner. The first nine days of sharad-ritu, also called as ‘Sharannavaratri’ are the auspicious dates when the Goddess Durga is invoked in most households across India in different avatars and rituals. She is offered love, respect and worship with utmost devotion. In the east part of the country, she is adored as the daughter who is returning to her mother’s home; in the west, she is propitiated as a mother and her fertile womb (garbha) is worshipped with dance and gaiety. Elsewhere, she is the warrior goddess. But closer home, she is venerated as the divine girl. On the first day, she is six years old, on the second, she is seven and so on… On the tenth day, Vijayadashami, she is Shodashi or sixteen years old.

In South India, the Goddess is a child who loves dolls. Each and every doll in the house is neatly, aesthetically arranged on a tiered pedestal and offered for the divine child for her pastime. This is the celebrated ‘Bombe Habba’ of Mysore. Renaissance of this doll festival of Mysore happened in October 2005 when Ramsons first organised Bombe Mane. Thousands of dolls from across the country are sourced and specially designed for this exhibition for the past 21 years. Dolls that mirror the aesthetics and cultural sensibilities of our hallowed land are handpicked for best craftsmanship and quality. Dolls made of clay, paper, cloth, wood, metal, glass and ceramics have been diligently collected and displayed at the ‘Ramsons Bombe Mane’ exhibition. 

In keeping with the tradition, Ramsons design team has designed new doll-dioramas depicting the private royal Dasara celebrations within the palace like Saraswati Puja, Pada puja, Shami Puja, Ayudha Puja, and Vahana Puja. Inspired from the Mysore style paintings, Goddesses Meenakshi, Kamakshi, Vishalakshi, Indrakshi and Gayatri have been created as beautiful paper mesh dolls. Many more new dolls are going on display along with the regular fare of dolls. 

This year, the special display section has three dioramas depicting different facets of the much loved and worshipped Hanuman. Across India, the orange coloured deity of the simian god is invoked for strength, fearlessness, oratory, knowledge, intelligence, friendship and utter devotion. One can behold this beloved god in his different avatars at ‘Hanumad Vilasa’.
