A jagran isn't a concert. People come to sit together, sing along and lose track of the time, and what makes that possible is mostly practical: singers who read the room, sound that's loud enough without being harsh, and someone keeping the evening on schedule.

Rainbow Entertainment organises mata ka jagran and mata ki chowki in India, Delhi, Noida, and across the NCR. Our passion for devotional events has been ongoing for over 20 years. We have a team of musicians and singers, and we plan each evening based on the family's wishes.

Jagran and chowki, and how they differ
The two names are often used interchangeably so sorting them out before making your booking will make things easier. 

A mata ka jagran is a long night of jagran. Bhajans and aarti are sung for the Goddess, and jagran is simply a term for a night spent awake. A mata ki chowki is a much shorter occasion, typically an evening of a few hours with the Mata's face on a decorated platform, bhajans, aarti, and sometimes some prasad at the end.

Which one you choose will obviously depend on the occasion, the guests, and most important of all, how much time you have. Tell us what you are thinking and how long you want it to last and we will plan the programme.

What the team brings 
BANDS AND SINGERS the singers and players are the heart of a jagran. We can provide a lead singer, a band of musicians and a sound system, and we select the songs to match the event and the audience. Usually the event starts with quieter bhajans and becomes more energetic as the night progresses this is what everyone can enjoy. 

Many families also want jhankis, the tableaux of deities set up on stage. Radha Krishna, Shiv Parvati and Kali Mata are the most popular. Examples are on our Jagran Jhankiya page and in the photos below.

Other devotional evenings we organise 
We also conduct Khatu Shyam sandhya, Sai sandhya, Sai bhajan sandhya and Krishna bhajan sandhya. These are conducted similar to a chowki, with singers, musicians, sound, and a programme timed for the family and the guests. These are held in homes societies temples, banquet halls and community venues throughout Delhi and Noida. 

Planning a jagran at home or in a society.
Begin with space. For a small chowki, a living room is okay, but a big jagran needs a society park or banquet hall, as the stage and the speakers need more space than you think. To ascertain what they require, ask the team before you book the venue. 

Loudspeakers are often where people run into issues. Societies and local areas in Delhi typically have restrictions, which are stricter at night, so it is advisable to speak to the RWA or neighbours beforehand rather than during the programme.

Agree the timings beforehand: when it begins, when the aarti will be, and when the prasad is served. A programme that runs over by an hour is hard on older guests, who are often the ones who most wanted to be there. Mats, a few chairs for the elders and water on hand help as much as anything on stage.

Why families book Rainbow Entertainment
We try to keep devotional evenings affordable without cutting corners on the music or the arrangements. We've been doing this in Delhi and Noida for a long time, and we start by asking what the family wants: the occasion, how many guests are coming and what the budget is.
