It was Mahasasthi, 1st day of the famous Durga Puja and I ventured out in the evening for some pandal hopping. Didn’t cover much, but saw 3 famous Pujas of South Kolkata. Below are some of the pictures I took with my cellphone. Will be posting more and soon, better quality pictures taken from digicam.
