Durga Puja is round the corner and the art gallery that the city has turned into is a vision in itself.

The politically and socially sound city leaves no stone unturned to bring out their creative best in depicting themes in Durga Puja that has inspired and awed India in the recent past.

Hundreds of pandals have already dolled up to enthrall the audience.

After many brainstorming sessions, tedious work braving the unruly monsoons, the city is finally ready to welcome ‘Maa Uma’, the mountain goddess.

Every Durga Puja organizer under the challenge of cut-throat competition has come up with a unique theme that is a delight to senses and spreads a message as well.

Abasar Sarbojonin Durgostav has tried to be brave with the concurrent theme of the sustainability of earth in the face of Global Warming.

The pandal is structured as a globe and as one enters one can sense the Mother Nature’s fury in the shape of an impending tornado.

The best part of this Durga Puja is the exquisite artwork done with 8000Kg of glass molded to perfection by artists from Ferozabad.

Sreebhumi Sporting Club of north Kolkata that has so long awed its worshipers with grand themes has accomplished the mammoth project of depicting the much-loved movie, ‘Baahubali’.
