Shivajinagara, previously known as Blackpally and Tasker Town, is a locality in Bangalore, India located in the Central Business District. It was named after the 17th century Maratha Emperor Shivaji, since he spent his childhood days there.[1][2]

## Overview

[edit]

It is reported that nearly half of Shivajinagar's residents are muslims, as such during Ramadan, visitors to the area gather to enjoy a wide array of culinary delights and cultural experiences. Large queues of visitors indulging in grill-charred kebabs, fried samosas, and large servings of falooda are seen. Families initiate their fast-breaking rituals with a spread of fresh fruits, dates, and beverages. The street fairs near Russell Market circle offer a rich variety of delicacies, including haleem, mutton samosas, kebabs, and phirni, attracting a significant number of visitors from both the city and its peripheral areas who seek to partake in the festivities and savor the local flavors.[3]
