Well, I have received many trophies, certificates and cash prizes in my life. Here I would like to talk about one such precious prize that I received around few months ago. As I am fond of dancing, especially Indian traditional form Garba, and last year I joined Garba classes near to my residence with my peer group. I was going very well in learning new steps of Garba. After 6 months of practice, my dance coach announced Garba competition on state level. And I and my peer group of 10 people filled the form and took passes for participation. And practicing for long hours every day, here the day comes and the whole ground filled with Garba. After the Garba gets over, they started announcing the winner’s name. And my friends and I were not selected, but suddenly they declared that there is different categories of prizes. And the judges announced my name on the stage for best costume of the year. And gave me 10,000 rupees cash and 10,000 rupees vouchers of different brands. And at that time I also received a loving praise from my friends and family.

Well, I have received many trophies, certificates, and cash prizes in my life. Here I would like to talk about one such precious prize that I received a few months ago. As I am fond of dancing, especially the Indian traditional form Garba, last year I joined Garba classes near my residence with my peer group. I was doing very well in learning new steps of Garba. After six months of practice, my dance coach announced a Garba competition at the state level. My peer group of ten people and I filled out the form and took passes for participation. After practicing for long hours every day, the day finally came, and the whole ground was filled with Garba. After the Garba was over, they started announcing the winners' names. My friends and I were not selected, but suddenly they declared that there were different categories of prizes. The judges announced my name on stage for Best Costume of the Year. They gave me 10,000 rupees in cash and 10,000 rupees in vouchers for different brands. At that time, I also received loving praise from my friends and family.
