Shubho Mahalaya! Today is the day before Navratri. (It also coincides with other holidays like Rosh Hashanah tomorrow)

Today, we pray to our loved ones and prepare to welcome the Goddess (Navratri and Durga Puja celebrate Durga’s triumph over evil on Earth). That's just the simplified version.

This period is very special to me and to other Bengali Hindus (and indeed to other Hindus) every year.

It has been a time of introspection and a chance to reset and reexamine my values.

The world is in chaos (or maybe it always has been?), and I want to pray for better times.

It can be really uncomfortable to welcome uncertainty, but I am learning to be accustomed to it and understand that (in the spirit of this holiday and so many others) we can keep trying to come together to co-create a better world. The trying and persevering matter, even if it's just for ourselves.

[its-poojagupta-shree]

Navratri, the vibrant and joyous festival that celebrates the victory of good over evil, is just around the corner. Shardiya Navratri 2023, also known as Chaitra Navratri 2023, is a highly anticipated event that brings communities together in colorful and spiritual harmony. This year, as we gear up for Navratri 2023, it's time to dive into the significance of Navratri colors and explore inspirational designs and fashion ideas, especially when it comes to Navratri dress for women.

Hello! Are you taking matchup requests? If yes, I'd like to send one in for Obey Me

I'll go by ⭐. My pronouns are she/her

Appearance: I am South Asian with long wavy black hair. Usually tie my hair in a half ponytail at the back because I like how it looks and I don't really like the feeling of hair on my shoulders. I am 165 cm tall and reasonably fit

Personality: I'm calm, collected and hardworking. I can be a bit aloof and arrogant sometimes, but I make sure it doesn't get out of hand. I am curious and perfectionistic, and I'm also pretty academically smart (though I sometimes struggle with impostor syndrome). The gifted kid burnout syndrome is catching up, though. People say I do have a bit of a cold facade, but once they get to know me, I'm much warmer and gentler than they initially thought. I care deeply for my friends and my family, so I'll do whatever I can for them. I do face a lot of pressures too from having to be the perfect oldest daughter, the therapist friend (despite psychology not being my major, more of a special interest) and from having to do well in school (engineering is kicking my ass low-key). I often bake my closest friends and family a cake on their birthday with a silly message written on it. I also has a soft spot (special interest) for outer space and love to stargaze wherever the skies are clear

Likes: Books, herbal tea, art, lofi hip-hop, video games, anime, drawing, spicy food, affogato, outer space

Dislikes: Incompetence, unnecessary conflicts, bullies, fake friends dishonesty, cruelty, dog-eared book pages, anyone who dares threaten my family, loud noises, itchy fabrics

Hey there! Actually the event ended long ago but I decided to do it anyways haha. (More like because I'm in vacation after durga puja and all :') got some time to write.)

I think your best fit is Satan or Lucifer.

If you date Satan then,

Lots of study dates with him.

Visiting every book store in sight.

Cuddling at night while he reads to you.

Baking together with him.

Stargazing when he is in the romantic mood.

You two don't fight often but if it happens then both of you resolve it pretty soon.

You both are mature but you are more at times, really.

Overall, a semi-peaceful dating life.

If you date Lucifer then,

Honestly, a relationship with him can get exhausting. Both of you are so busy that you barely get any spare time.

Peaceful time in his office.

Most of your dates are Netflix and chill really, since he barely gets any time and rest.

If you go outside then he will take you anywhere as long as it's not too noisy.

Listening to classical music in his room.

You can put your head on his shoulder if he plays the piano for you.

He shares his prized demonus with you.

Stargazing can be possible since he barely sleeps.

Overall a semi-peaceful and mature dating life with him.

LAILA MAIN LAILA AISI HOON LAILA HAR KOI CHAHE MUHJSE MILNA AKELA

☾♔; March 17, 2024 ☾♔; 4:56pm ☾♔; sotd: What Jhumka? (from Rocky aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani) ☾♔; cotd: Rani Chatterjee ☾♔; Thistle Grove Academy ☾♔; Storyboard/Important Connections

𝐓𝐢𝐭𝐥𝐞: lyrics from "Laila Main Laila"

I've always sucked at making storyboard type sets, but YIKES. lol, whatever.

【 𝐎𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐕𝐈𝐄𝐖 】

Laila is an heiress of 𝓡𝓪𝓲𝓬𝓱𝓪𝓷𝓭 Industries, an Indian multinational conglomerate founded by Laila's great-grandfather, Thakur Raj Raichand, in the early 1950's after Partition. While the company has long since gone public, it is still majority owned by the Raichand Family, and they run every aspect of it. Now Mumbai (Bombay) based, the Raichand's originate from the state of Rajasthan where the family once owned a fairly large piece of land that was sold off when Laila's grandfather was young. After succeeding in Bombay, the land was repurchased, as well as much of the surrounding area and a large palace named Chandshah Haveli was constructed in the Indo-Saracenic architecture style.

Karshvar is the seven-story Raichand estate in Mumbai, located on Altamount Road (also known as Billionaires’ Row), the name of the estate comes from Zoroastrian mythology. The Avesta, the primary collection of religious texts in Zoroastrianism, describes seven Karshwar, climbs or zones, that organize the world into seven circles superimposed on top of one another, separated by waters, mountains, and forests. Until the completion of the Ambani’s Antilia, Karshvar was the most expensive private residence in the country, possibly the entire region, and yes, it is more expensive than their literal palace in Rajasthan (as an FYI, Antilia is the most expensive private residence in the world, as of 2014, might’ve been surpassed by now). However, Karshvar still claims the most ground floor square footage of the road.

The Raichand's are a relatively traditional family, certainly in western standards, though they are considered very progressive amongst other Desi's, having a very religiously mixed and accepting family, and very matriarchal family. Women have long held authoritative power over the family, though that has passed matrimonially, with the wife of each successive head of the family gaining that authority. Overall the Raichands are a Hindu family, however, their spouses have come from all over India and beyond, of varied faiths and sects, due to this, the Raichand’s also have large celebrations for holidays of multiple religions, obviously Hinduism, as well as Sikhism, Jainism, and Islam. Their biggest events are Diwali, Durga Puja, Vaisakhi, Navratri, Karva Chauth, Eid, the First and Last Iftars of Ramadan, and Holi. They also have a fairly large, but private, family only event for Raksha Bandhan.

Laila is not close to her maternal family at all, neither is her mother. She's asked about them a couple times before, but her mother doesn't have the best expression when talking about her family, so Laila stopped asking. If they want to know them, they can find them, it's not Laila's problem. She’s not even completely sure if her mom’s original last name is even Burakgazi, her parents have changed the story a few times, but have more or less stayed consistent that they met while her father was working. At one point the story was almost identical to the plot of the film Bang Bang!, wherein a RAW agent supposedly stole the Koor-i-noor diamond back from the British, something involving multi-national terrorists, and her mom being a bank teller caught in the middle after her dad hijacked her blind date, none of which made any sense, but it was a fun story.

Dadi does not have a favourite grandchild, she loves them all equally. She does, however, have a favourite child, and that is Veer. Papa and Auntie Riya do not like to talk about it.

Zaara is publicly referred to as “Zaara Bhabhi”, by netizens, Raichand Industries employees, and other industrialists, all of whom regard her as the true head of Raichand Industries, as even though she does not work in the company, Veer’s love for her and deference to her is well-known, and she has the last word on everything. Because of this she is often the target for schmoozing campaigns (though it doesn’t necessarily work, a lot of Laila’s judgey and stubborn personality comes from her).

Aka the Mean Girls! They are so judgey and bitchy, and kinda ice cold. Very much alienate others by speaking in languages only the three of them will understand, usually Portuguese while in Dubai, and Arabic elsewhere. The three are neighbours, living in the same residential Skyscraper in Downtown Dubai, though all three's families have additional properties in Dubai, and with Kiran in particular, the Desai's have a villa right next to the Raichand one on the Palm Jumeirah. They also went to the same private school until Laila and Isabella started attending Thistle Grove.

Kat is Payal and Kiran’s second cousin (probably), her paternal grandmother, Rashmi, is the sister of Yogesh Raichand’s best friend and Payal and Kiran’s grandfather, all three (Yogesh and the Desai siblings) grew up together, Rashmi and Yogesh even dated with talks of marriage until he met Mohini. Rashmi eventually married Kat’s paternal grandfather, and the couple moved to London for his work. A couple years younger than the Emirati trio, Kat lived most of her life in the UK, until her parents company moved them to their Dubai offices, and she built a closer relationship with Kiran and joined her friend group. Having grown up abroad, Kat’s Hindi isn’t great, though she can understand the gist of what is being said, her Arabic is far more fluent.

A new addition to the Emirati gang, Aarón joined the friends after moving to Dubai following his mother’s marriage to Siddharth Singhania, and making him the younger step-brother of Vikram Singhania, both of whom are part of the Raichand generational family friends group. Senior Singhania being a close friend of Veer, Vikrant, and Riya, while Vikram is besties with Yash and Zoya.

A slightly more distant cousin (second I think, don’t ask me), Samara is the granddaughter of Yogesh Raichand’s youngest sister, Sriti. Samara grew up primarily in Delhi with her paternal family, but often celebrated religious holidays with the Raichands.

Vijay's cousin, daughter of one his dad's sisters. Studied at the University of Orléans (Université d'Orléans)

【 𝐀𝐃𝐃𝐈𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍𝐀𝐋 𝐍𝐎𝐓𝐄𝐒 】

This is literally for me because I’m losing track of all the notable Families affiliated with the Raichands and their histories. I keep expanding my family tree, and forgetting things I don’t put in the bio sections. Laila took keeping things in the family too literally, by her I mean me, but literally everyone mentioned up there is bound in her family tree through one method or another, even got Is in there cause I decided that her half-brother is Laila’s eventual endgame. Far in the future, cause he a lot older (like red flag), so he doesn’t show up now, it’ll be creepy if he does.

Desai’s, friendship dates back to before even Yogesh, the Desai’s were heavily involved in establishing Raichand Industries, and outside of the Raichand family, own the most shares of RaiI, in the current generation, Vijay (grandson of Yogesh) and Payal (granddaughter of Dushant) are engaged. Yogesh once dated Dushant’s sister with semi-serious marriage talks, but forgot all of that after meeting Mohini, so that was awkward and dramatic. Lol Dadaji is a slut.

Khan & Kapoor filmi fam’s, friendship from the Veer/Vikrant/Riya generation, very thinly veiled references to bollywood things for my enjoyment. This Khan and Kapoor branch are also connected to each other, I think they are cousins by descent, while the Raichand connection is through a marriage, oh wait, the Raichand connection is even further away, cause it’s through the Dhanraj’s marriage! So at most, Vijay’s something, something cousins, but not Laila, Zoya, or Yash’s.

Singhania, frienship from Veer/Vikrant/Riya generation, but working relationship from Yogesh’s era

EMBRACING SIMPLICITY: ASHRAFUL AREFIN’S FINE ART PHOTOGRAPHY TALE

In the realm of fine art photography, Ashraful Arefin, hailing from Dhaka, Bangladesh, has a unique gift for transforming everyday moments into extraordinary art. Born on May 3rd, his photographic journey began in 2013 with a 365-day project that ignited a deep passion for photography.

This image was shot in the river Yamuna, Delhi. I saw this man rowing his raft filled with trash collected from the river. Suddenly there were migratory birds surrounding him in search of food. I found it really interesting and he looked like a character from a storybook.

This image was shot during the Durga Puja festival in Dhaka, Bangladesh. 

[that-mad-indian-woman]

Same idiot here for information on what are like the culturally appropriate things to do for pujo in Bengal

(non Bengalis here's your guide to act native to pujo madness)

So, what IS pujo?

Following mahalaya, (if you don't know what that is, here's the infodump i did;)

Devispaksha begins. The goddess is returning home. There's a different side to this story however.

THE MYTHOLOGICAL SIDE AND WHAT THAT GREEN THING YOU SEE AT DURGA'S FEET IN EVERY PANDAL IS.

So, mahishasur was believed to be a monster. He one day decided to go into the depths of a jungle and sit for an intense tapasya. So he did. He prayed to lord brahma for months and months. He was covered in ivy and moss, Insects grew on him but he stayed firm. For months he prayed, without food or water. Brahma, impressed by his tenacity appeared before him. Mahishasur asked for the boon of immortality. Brahma granted him his wish. "You shall not be killed by any man in heaven, hell, or earth." Strengthened by his boon, Mahishasur attacked Indrapuri, The court of God Indra. He captured his throne. The gods turned to brahma for help. Brahma, on realising his mistake, went to consult with Lord Vishnu and Lord Shiva. the gods decided that as mahishasur couldn't be destroyed by any MAN, they needed to create a female source of power to end him. The gods gathered. They collected their powers and from the blinding lights, emerged the goddess of feminine power-Durga. She was bestowed with weapons; she was given strikingly beautiful features, And then, armed with a hundred hands and skilled in hundred different weapons, she went on the fight. Mahishasur, initially enthralled by her beauty, proposed to marry her; but she declared war. The battle went on for days. At the end, Durga's vahan, the lion pounced on the asur, Durga stepped on him and piercing her trishul through his heart, emerged victorious. The evil was dead. The power that laid within the flashing eyes of the goddess had won.

GOT IT. SO WHAT DO I DO DURING PUJAS?

Puja celebrations usually don't start in it's full-fledged glory till atleast the fifth day (panchami). it continues till the tenth day (Dashami).

If you live in kolkata during pujas, GO OUT. The whole city is bedazzled in lights, there are fairs through the city. Nobody sits at home; everybody is out on the roads sparkling and dressed to nines. Wear your best dresses and walk through the streets at night till the sun comes up. The most major part of pujas is pandal hopping. Thousands of pandals with budgets of crores are made at various spots in the city. These are pandals as huge as marketplaces; each with different themes. There are competitions every year between them, based on which pandal had the best durga idol, which had the best theme, which had the best structure, etc.

Pujas are the time when Kaash ful(the white flowers I clicked last year in the fourth picture) are in full bloom, there are lotuses in bloom in ponds; nature is bedecked in her best jewels.

Keeping in spirit with the goddess returning home, bengalis usually return home during pujas. it's a time to visit families, revsit old friends and have complete unabashed fun. It's time to gobble down on junk foods as much as you can. Oh and girls, on Ashtami(or the eighth day), make sure you put on your best sarees for arti and bedazzle the guys on the road;)

Despite the intense commercialization of the pujas that has happened in the last few years, it still remains an extremely core emotion for us bengalis. It's the time of homecoming, of taking a break and reconnecting to our roots every year. it's the time of visiting family, of recreating old memories, of re-living new and old romances. It's the whole world celebrating you coming home. It's the world celebrating the power that lays inside every woman- a mother, a sister, a wife.

Bisarjan (immersion) ,1989

Bikash Bhattacharjee

Bisarjan (immersion) is a hindu ritual where the idols of the Gods are plunged in water bodies after festivals dedicated to worship them is over.

Among the bengali hindus the greatest religious festival is the Durga puja where goddess durga (an abatar of cosmic power or shakti ) is worshipped for 5days at the beginning of the autumn . On dashami the rituals of the 5days long worship ends with the idols being submerged in a river or nearby water body . Giving a endearing twist to the eternal story of Gods rescuing mankind from the arch evil , the bengali Hindus also views Goddess Durga as their own daughter who comes to spend five days in her maternal house and leaves for the Himalayas (her husband's home) on the day of Dashami. In bengali psyche and imagination the cosmic omnipotent Goddess is therefore often inseparable from the mortal daughters of the land suffering the usual plights of a daughter , mother and wife . This is one of the finest example of seeing the divine in mundane and vice versa .

Bikash Bhattacharjee's celebrates this spirit with a series of uncanny , surreal paintings collectively called 'Durga' where Durga is everywhere , in every woman , from holy pedestal to unholy brothels . In this painting we see the half submerged body (or corpse) of a woman whose divinity is apparent only through her third eye smeared in vermilion .

Interior Design Tips for Kolkata Homes

Work with the Climate: Kolkata’s hot and humid weather means that ventilation and cooling should be a priority. Light fabrics, such as cotton and linen, work well for curtains and upholstery. Use ceiling fans with a vintage touch to add a functional yet aesthetic element to the room.

Use Local Art: Whether it’s a framed piece of Kalighat painting or a wall adorned with Bengali calligraphy, art from local artisans can bring a unique cultural flavor to your space.

Go Vertical in Smaller Spaces: With the rise of apartment living, especially in areas like New Town and Rajarhat, space management is key. Opt for vertical storage solutions like shelves and multi-purpose furniture to make the most of limited space.

Lighting Matters: Kolkata’s older homes often come with high ceilings, providing an opportunity for statement lighting. Consider vintage chandeliers or contemporary pendant lights that add both elegance and warmth to the room.

Create a Reading Nook: As the city that gave birth to literary giants like Rabindranath Tagore, a cozy reading nook feels right at home in Kolkata. Add a comfortable chair, a bookshelf filled with classics, and soft lighting to create your personal retreat.
