Celebrations for Durgotsava or Durga Puja have begun in full swing. Mumbaikars have welcomed Ma Durga with much fervour and enthusiasm like every year. The vibrancy of the whole environment during the days of the Durga puja is indeed infectious and makes everyone want to be a part of it.   

This year, Durga Puja will be celebrated from October 20 to 24 all across the country. While Kolkata is the best city to truly experience the magic that unravels during this time, Mumbai also celebrates the event with a key focus on the rich Bengali culture. This is done by various puja pandals who conduct cultural events, encourage people to wear Bengali outfits and prepare special Bengali food.
