Durga Puja in Kolkata is a grand annual festival celebrating the Hindu goddess Durga’s victory over the demon Mahishasura.

Skilled craftsmen and painters spend months sculpting and painting these statues, paying special attention to the goddess’s numerous arms, each holding different symbols of her power and divinity.

The celebrations include rituals, cultural performances, traditional music, and vibrant decorations, culminating with the immersion of the statues in water, symbolizing Durga’s return to her heavenly abode.
