It's good Durga Puja is finally happening in Bari .. They also showed the dhununchi dance which is a must at every Puja ..
I hope they end it with a sindoor khela on bijoya dashami
It's a holi played with sindoor which only married ladies participate in
Unmarried /single woman are not allowed to play ..
Since this is the first time after years shatmistha is with her hubby naturally she would want to play with her 2 married daughters ..
If swara plays this ritual it means she is accepting her marital status


Other thing is Bengali culture believe Devi Durga has come to stay at her parents house for 5 days with her children and after bijoya dashami will go back to her husbands house so sindur khela. Is an auspicious festival for married ladies they play after putting sindur on the feet of Goddess .. It's for Long fulfilling marital life ..In swaragini they will show both the girls will leave for sasural after bijoya ..

I m a bengali & i always njy it seeing my maa-aunty-masi's sindur khela.
I realy wish swara do tht & sanskar see it.
in bijoya during sindoor khela suhagan durga maa ki aarti & mithai khilati hai.fir sare suhagan ek dusre ko sindoor lagati hai-maang,chehra,sakha-pala(the red white churi swara & shomi wears)pe.kaha jata hai jiska maang jitna sindoor se vara hota hai,wo suhagan k liye asirbaad hota hai,uske pati ki umar lambi hoti hai.its also agar sindoor nak(nose) pe gire to uska pati usko bohot pyar karti hai & wo vi gara lal rang k ho to...
I realy wnt swara's sindur khela.
