Respected Granny,
You hear “three sides open”, “two sides open”, “throw in south facing” and you may just think you’re buying a flat. During the coronavirus pandemic, that’s what the buzz around Durga Puja sounds like. The issue has gone beyond the ‘will it happen, won’t it happen’ stage and reached the ‘it will definitely happen’ stage. Cities like Delhi, have cancelled most of their pujos.
The run up to the event began with the revealing of a Durga deity that sported a silver mask and carried hand sanitizers – and that was only a preview from one organiser. But then, Durga Puja has always brought out Bengali creativity and engaged scores of pandal (stage) makers, light makers, potters who earn big during the season. ‘Expect the unexpected’ has usually been the theme for Durga Pujo celebrations. However, this year in many pandals, the theme has seen a shift. The Asura has shifted from being a buffalo to the coronavirus globule, the biggest evil the human race has to fight currently. Whether the spear will be a syringe and the chakra a hand sanitizer depends on how far the imagination of the organiser takes them.
Yours lovingly,
