Durga Puja Throwback 2014 – From Kumortuli to Pujo Pandal and Visarjan


Arrival of Durga idol at Puja Pandal, photo clicked on the same day.

This is Durga Puja throwback for the year 2014. Almost four years passed away since that Durga Pujo we organized well that year. It is 2018 and I still have those photographs and videos yet to be shared with the world. The world, where everything has changed drastically during these 4 years for us. These pictures have become memories spent together. Memories of visiting a kumortoli near Bandel for Durga Idol purchase.

Mahisasura praying for his life, looks like his facial veins will burst sooner.

And then came the photo session with Mahisasur

Over 100 years of Durga Pujo still the same idols each year. No change.
