On the day of janmashtami , many people dress up their kid in the costume with which they looks exactly like krishna ji. So guys iam here showing you the pics of  my favorite krishna ji avatars below:



In year 2020 it is bit difficult for people to celebrate this festival in their old ways because many of thing and activities are restricted outside. So people this year are celebrating only inside the house. The social gathering is restricted on krishan janmashtmi too so people are not able to celebrate this festival the way they were used to in early years. I also does the worship and other rituals at home only, because no one is allowed for social gathering. May God Krishna give us good health and happiness in life.
