Posting the Diwali Photos
I celebrated Diwali in my home town after 11 years. Looks like a long time but in the sleepy little town of Kharagpur in West Bangal, things are still like that. You have fun only if you celebrate Diwali with your family. The bigger the better. :-)
My wife knows whats to be done during Laxmi Pooja. Now Laxmi Mata will get impressed and mere paas Croroes aa jayenge. :-)
All the fire crackers. We made the flowerpots or Anars at our place. Papa knew all the ingredients and we mixed them and filled them in the small pots. They were pretty good!!!
Papa teaching me how to make the flowerpots catch fire, if the flowerput is half burnt. You need to put some masala there and then burn the whole thing. He had some ideas, took his time and made the half burnt flowerpot go up again. Some skills but I thought we were wasting too much time over a silly thing and burnt two new ones. Khi Khi Khi Khi.
Mamaji came late but he also had some ideas. He said take the ground chakri in your hand , burn it and then put it on the ground. Yeah dare devils do that !! :-)
Diwali in Bengal is celebrated as Kali Pooja. We saw some Kali Pooja Pandals as we went to drop our cousins back home.
