Eid shopping illuminates the Charminar market

There are reasons, why the night before Eid is called Chaand ki Raat, which means, "Night of the Moon." It was indeed an alluring sight at bazaars and shopping malls with families, shopping for Eid on Monday. Bulk of the shopping centers and fashionable markets were flooded with domestic and foreign goods as shopkeepers had displayed varieties of ready-made garments, clothes, suits, shoes, cosmetics, eye-catching jewellery and quality three-piece-suits for youth that were rarely seen in the past in the lucrative markets of the city.

Saree, short-kameez, lehnga, knitted garments and ornaments. These dresses were mostly wooing customers as Eid special offers.

“The fervor of Eid shopping has picked up in the city as majority of buyers are coming for shopping during the last ten days of Ramzan,” Mohammed Rashid, salesman of a popular garment centre at Pathergatti. Customers, however, were not happy with the shooting prices of the items.
