India CAPTURED: Hanuman lends a hand to Raavan

The season of festivals is well and truly on in full vigour in India.

The photograph was shot in Mumbai during a rehearsal for the dramatic folk re-enactment of sage Valmiki’s epic Ramayan ahead of the festival of Dussehra, which celebrates Lord Ram's victory over Raavan.
