In Pictures: The Sundowning Bliss That Was Nariyal Paani 2016

Take a look at the aesthetic brilliance that was the 2016 edition of Nariyal Paani.

This weekend was an incredible gathering of spirited individuals and a quiescent celebration of music and culture by the beach. The sandy hearth of Alibaug was alive with the campers and festival goers of Nariyal Paani, and saw some remarkable, and not to mention picturesque, moments. Take a look!
