Shubho Mahalaya 2022: The special day is almost here. West Bengal and the North-east celebrates Durga Puja during the time of Navratri. Recognised as one of the largest festivals of the Bengalis, Durga Puja all about winning over darkness with light, and over evil with goodness. This is the time of the year when Goddess Durga makes her journey from Kailash Parvat to the earth with her four children – goddess Lakshmi, goddess Saraswati, lord Ganesha and lord Kartik. People bask in festivities, start their puja shopping and become homebound to celebrate the ten-day festival with their families, friends, near and dear ones.

Durga Puja officially starts with Mahalaya. It is the first day of the ten-day festival. The Bengali tradition goes that at 4 in the morning, the radio starts playing Mahishashur Mardini, narrated by late radio brodcaster Birendra Krishna Bhadra. Bengalis wake up early morning, the neighborhoods echo in the baritone of Birendra Krishna Bhadra and people officially start their festivities. Mahishashur Mardini is the poetic narration, injected with songs, which trace the journey of Durga in winning over Mahishashura and saving the gods and goddesses.
On this special day, we have curated a list of wishes that you can share with your loved ones:
