I am back with some of the snaps of Durga Puja ( biggest festival in Eastern-part !!),and this was the reason I was off from blogging !
Durga Puja is all about winning of the positive energy over the evil !
Here in the eastern part we get see a lot of original-
and one of a kind themes by which Pandals are decorated!
Its so sad that within four days of Puja no one can cover all the pandals!
During these four days our city becomes the inspiration-hub for all the craft enthusiasts!People just soak in the light of creativity and fun !
Here in my Art Blog I cant possible upload all the snaps ....
Among the all,I have choosen to feature a simple yet very skillfully decorated Pandal which incorporated
PAKISTANI TRUCK ART!
KOLKATA:
The Indo-Pak relationship is set for a new boost. Three Pakistani
artists will decorate the Hatibagan Nabinpalli pandal with their unique
'truck art' this Puja. The trio - Haidar Ali, Mumtaz Ahmed and Md Iqbal -
will reach Kolkata by the end of this week.
Though Haidar - the lead artist in the team - has come to India a couple of times before, he has never been to Kolkata. Speaking to TOI over phone, this internationally-acclaimed artist said, "I have never been to Kolkata, but I know about Durga Puja. I have seen it on the television. It's a huge festival and I am happy that I will be a part of it this year. I hope that the people of Kolkata will love this work of art".

This Nabin Palli is situated at the Northern Part of the city....
The bottom line is ,those 3 artists completed this entire project within 27 days!!I am a big fan of decorative paintings,so it was a feast to the soul...
Now its time to upload the snaps.......
Hope this post was enjoyable !! All the crowds and bad weather (specially on that day) could not take away our enthusiasm to be part of the festival!!
