Durga Puja 2018 - Themes of the Puja Part 1

With the Durga Puja nearing I can see many promotional hoardings and banner has come up. I could not control the temptation and decided to write about it.

Although all the banners and hoardings can be found in the pages of respective Durga pujas, here are some popular

1. Naktala Udayan Sangha

Naktala Udayan Sangha, in the southern suburb of Kolkata, is popular for creating an innovative theme in their puja. Besides creating the theme they also cast a celebrity as their Durga for their Puja theme.

This year they have chosen Rituparna Sengupta, and their theme is "Kaal-Samaya" meaning time; that can not be touched.

They beautifully promoted their theme by releasing banners and posters in phases.

2. Sreebhumi Sporting Club

Situated in Lake Town Kolkata. Sreebhumi Sporting is one of the prominent Durga Puja in Kolkata. They are known for their creative pandals like Bahubali theme in 2017. This year won't be any exceptional as one can expect to see Chittor Fort, as this year they have decided to create Pandal based on Padmaavat. 

3. Jodhpur Park 95 Pally

Jodhpur Park 95 Pally is a popular Durga Puja in South Kolkata. This year they have done a promotion with the hoarding saying "Dugga Dugga"

4.    Shyambazar Nabin Sangha

One of the popular Pujo in North Kolkata, who makes their Pandal based on a theme. This year they seem to have focused on a very interesting theme. "Sudho Suchi" meaning purity, which I found in one of the hoardings.

5. North Tridhara

Another Durga Puja in North Kolkata, this year they seem to be creating their Puja Pandal based on "Punor Janam" meaning reincarnation, at least that's what one can think of seeing their poster.


6. Pally Mangal

Pally Mangal Durga Puja is near Jodhpur park Durgotsab. "Barta Paychi, se asche", that's what their poster says. So one can expect a really innovative pandal to express the theme.
