Its Navratri! Come and celebrate with us on the auspicious Occasion of Navratri.

these Happy Navaratri and wish them all a delightful and wonderful Navratri

.Thereare many legends attached to the conception of Navratri like all Indian festivals

but all of them are related to Goddess Shakti (Hindu Mother Goddess) and her

various forms. Though it is one of the most celebrated festivals of Hindu calendar, it

holds special significance for Gujratis and Bengalis and one can see it in the zeal and

fervor of the people with which they indulge in the festive activities of the season.

Excellent article! Have missed Pujas for four years in a stretch. But it’s shuddering to think that it may soon turn into this!

Oh man, we got a masterpiece here. One of the best I have read from your blog. And what better timing could it be — I’m going home to Kolkata to see Pujo after quite a few years and this post just sets the mood right.

“Bari theke Jhari” — oh yeah, why didn’t anyone think of that till now?

@ Deeps – yes it does – Kolkata is full of these hoardings at street corners naming the Puja and what they call the “sponsorers”.

awesome…cant stop laughing and really regretting the simple delights of a para pujo handled by a handful of families. Miss the simplicity and the dedication.

Having grown up in Northern India Pujo was one time when my being a bengali and not someone else got reinforced each year.
