What sequence of events led to the Ram Navami festival being permanently established in Shirdi?

📖 Chapter 6

The establishment of the Ram Navami festival in Shirdi involved several key events and people. Initially, Kaka Mahajani organized for Balabuva Satarkar to perform. Balabuva's availability was a matter of chance, as his usual performance in Kavthe was canceled due to a plague. As detailed in Chapter 6, after Balabuva's successful and well-received performance, another devotee, Dasganu, took a crucial step. Sometime later, when Dasganu came to Shirdi, he prayed to Sai Baba and had the annual festival formally established for them. The text indicates that from that point forward, the birth festival was celebrated with great pomp and a feast for everyone.
