Jamnagar is a city located on the western coast of India in the state of Gujarat in the Saurashtra region. Navratri is a festival which is celebrated with great enthusiasm in and around the Gujarat.

The Navaratri of Jalani Jar during the days of the Monarchy was played only by men of age of above 25 years . In this Navratri, Gods marriage is of great importance. For three and a half hours without a single moment of break the players dance with the song of 'Ishwar Vivah Duhaverses. Each stanza of Ishwar Vivah was sung four times so that the listeners can understand the meaning easily . In this Navratri even today, no electronic musical instruments are used and only singing is done orally.
