Durga Puja, also called Durgotsava and Navaratri, is an annual Hindu festival in the Indian subcontinent that reveres the goddess Durga. A multi-day festival that features elaborate temple and stage decorations (pandals), scripture recitation, performance arts, revelry and processions.
Since it is a cross culture and cross community festival, it is celebrated by people from all regions of the country and has been enthusiastically received by all the residents in PSN.
SHANTINIKETAN – BENGALURU’S LARGEST RESIDENTIAL TOWNSHIP With 3200 flats and over
10,000 residents, Prestige
Shantiniketan is one of the largest residential complexes in India.
It is home to a diverse populace – hailing from different regions of India and also has a large population of expats from USA, Canada, Australia, China, Spain, Hong Kong and Korea, who have made Bengaluru their home.
Most households are double income – with employment in IT, Medical, FMCG, Banking, Private Equity, Banking and the Sunrise IT sectors. There is a sizeable number of entrepreneurs residing here.
All in all, a vibrant community that celebrates all its festivals with great fervour and enthusiasm.
Since it is a cross culture and cross community festival, it is celebrated by people from all regions of the country and has been enthusiastically received by all the residents in PSN. From 2013 -2018, the celebration was on a very strong footing with participation on a huge scale from across the complex.
Through the previous years, “Ram Leela” and “Raavan Dahan” have been major crowd pullers.
Celebrity concerts, that of Lucky Ali in 2017 and Ms Usha Uthup in 2018 have been huge success, seeing footfalls of over 8000 in a single evening.
In 2019, Durgotsav will be a 5-day festival from 3rd October (Thursday) to 7th October (Monday) culminating with the immersion of the deity on 8th October (Tuesday).
I am a resident of Shantiniketan itself. We have been doing this festival for many years now and every year it is getting bigger and better.
