Durga Puja Celebrations

History. Durga Puja — also called Durgotsava — is an annual Hindu festival that reveres the goddess Durga. Observed in the Hindu month of Ashvin (September–October), it spans several days of ritual, recitation, and revelry.

Cultural significance. Elaborate pandals, performance arts, and processions transform neighbourhoods into open-air galleries of art, music, and faith.

Community. For our family, the Puja is the year's warmest reunion — from Debipur's courtyards to Hyderabad's halls — where every generation finds its place around Maa.
