Mahalaya:A Once-a-Year Popular Radio Prog - Page 2

Thanks alot,Barnaliji.Used to listen to Hindi part when in India.If my me,mory serves me right Pankuj Mullick himself sang when he was alive.
Jayaji is right.Nothing like getting up at dawn and switch on the radio.

yu r welcome Varshaji 😊 this day actually heralds the starting of devi pokhho or the arival of devi. the festival will now go on for next ten days. its real festive time here.

though this year maybe it will b bit down as we had a big cyclone here. all puja pandals in kolkata and surrounding areas hve been effected but i am sure still the festive mood will remain the same.😃

Pujas in Bengal -just another world 😳 I have seen the concept of Pujo changing over my growing up years, but the charm and the fun remains so so intact....

Dad was in a transferable service - so grew up in various cities, but Pujo always meant that all bengalis of the place will get together to pray to the mother Goddess... The memories are solid and just keep fillin my scrap book pages over the years 😳
