Come, join the fun aboard the DelhiByFoot "Durga Puja Bus", for a whirlwind tour of Delhi's Best Durga Puja Fun, as we hop across some of Delhi's iconic Durga Puja Pandals. Safely, securely without the hassle of negotiating Delhi's harrowing traffic!
The 7th year of the "DBF Pujo Bus-a-Thon" rolls out on 16th Oct evening, on 'Maha Sapatami', to give you an immersive experience of the many rituals, traditions, festivities and foods associated with Durga Puja, at some of the iconic Pujas of Delhi-NCR!
Gaze in wonder upon the exquisitely beautiful idols of Goddess Durga and connect with her calming aura, followed by the gradual build-up to the frenzied, trance-inducing and heart-thumping beats of Dhaak (the traditional drums) as Arati (Ritual prayers) is done; and witness the worship rituals to the accompanying crescendo of Shonkho (Conches), Kanshor (Cymbals) and Ghonta (Bells) at the oldest continuously celebrated Durga Pujas of Delhi!
Then the DBF Pujo Tour Bus will zip across the city to few more Puja Pandals (decorated tented spaces meant for the community's congregational religious functions) which are renowned for their idols, pandal designs and innovations, while your host for the evening, our founder Ramit Mitra will share the mythological tales of the epic battle between Good & Evil when Goddess Durga slays the demon king Mahishasur and his own childhood memories of Puja.
And what will Durga Puja be without a taste of Bengali Foods which go beyond 'Fish Fry' and the famed 'Rosogulla', so you will savour Ramit's personal favourite Puja Food Spcls as he guides you through a Bengali smorgasbord in the Pandals!
