Pujor Hullor

Pujor Hullor - A New Way to Celebrate Durga Puja this time. Come this October 4, 2013, as clock touches half past 4, almost a year later we will hear “Mahisasura Mardini" recitation by the legendary narrator Late Birendra Krishna Bhadra recites “Jago Tumi Jago" and with this Bengalis all over the world get enthused in festive fervor with “Mahalaya” and get busy to complete the final preparations for their greatest festival – Durga Puja.

Durga Puja is a part of Bengali culture as they waits for almost a year to celebrate the true spirit of Bengali culture and fervour. Over the years we have seen that with the entry of corporate houses and competitive environment the Durga Puja has been became brand and not festival where common people left with fewer options and interest in this festival. To bring back lost glory of Durga Puja for the commons, Soumalya Kumar De, a professional photographer from Kolkata, conceptualized an idea to reach from 6-60 age groups with an innovative and technology based platform to make this Durga Puja more excitement and fun-filled for Bengali from Kolkata to California and Siliguri to Sydney. For the first time in the history of Durga Puja, an exclusive calendar will be published starting from Mahalaya to Dashami where Durga and company will featured as normal human beings rather mythological characters with fun element.

The entire project name has been given Pujor Hullor that means celebration at its best in festivity. The concept of Pujor Hullor has been conceptualised and photographed by Soumalya De Photography.
