Following Mukherjee’s performance, the audience will be treated to a grand musical evening on October 11th, Asthami, with Taposh Mukherjee and his “Band Harmony.” Mukherjee, an accomplished musician known for his work with legendary Bollywood composers Kalyanji-Anandji and Bappi Lahiri, will bring his signature guitar skills to the stage. With a 70-piece ensemble, the performance is expected to be a spectacular musical experience that showcases Mukherjee’s extensive repertoire.
Adding to the traditional flavors of the event, folk artist Jayanta Das will perform on Asthami afternoon. Hailing from Shantiniketan, Das is a master of Baul music, a form of Bengali folk that captures the spirituality and vibrancy of rural Bengal. His performance will offer a deep, soulful journey into the roots of Bengali culture.
On Nabami evening, BAP will present two thought-provoking dramas, “Aajker Durga” and “Jaago Ma Jaago”, which reflect recent social unrest in West Bengal. These dramatized representations aim to evoke a sense of solidarity and empathy among audiences, reminding them of the resilience and spirit of Durga.
For the past 44 years, BAP has been committed to fostering a sense of community and pride in Bengali heritage. “Our puja has become a must-visit event, attracting thousands of visitors daily,” said Subrata Chatterjee, President BAP. “We look forward to bringing people of all communities together, celebrating our traditions, and sharing our cultural identity with Pune.”
The Bengalee Association Pune invites everyone to join the celebrations and experience the rich cultural tapestry of Bengal during Durga Puja 2024.
