Its that time of the year again which every Bengali waits for throughout the year. The visits to Brigade Road, Commercial Street, Koramangala and all other shopping destinations in
Bangalore have increased manifolds as Bengalis settled in the city are thronging these places for their Puja shopping.
Home to approx. 4 lakh Bengalis, the city is slowly taking on the
Durga Puja fervor. With Pandals and Durga idols slowly taking their final form, one can virtually see the dhunuchi and the dhaki dance to the rhythm of energy, joy and shakti.
For those Bengalis who have found a new home in Bangalore and cannot make it to Kolkata for their celebrations here is a list of places where you can still feel at home and celebrate Durga Puja with the same zeal and vigour.
