SHOROSHOTTEE PUJO #saraswatipuja

 Shoroshotee pujo is here !! Remembering my grand old days, I was 4/ 5 years old !! Mashi choreographing dhaaner khete ( group dance ), Monima, jhorna mashi singing, pr dotto mashi dressing me up in holud laal Paar shaaree .... I felt like Vayjanti Maala performing ... but the fact is I was a mix between Archana Puran Singh & Sunny Deol. Btw, all this was for 1 samosa during rehearsals. I lovvvvved samosas, but Ma.. was No means no !! During rehearsals, she couldn't say NO .. I had a hell lot of people backing me & standing up for me for ONE SAMOSA.


I was learning Kathak, hence Ma & Maashi both wanted me to perform. Dance over .. I looked at Ma ... she had the look ....haege diye cho ( her eyes were enough to tell me I had goofed up at many places . ) But the audience was ...... kee shundor naachli- mishtu didi, laal buro, kanjilal Kaku, !!

I switched over to" Choraa " every Shoroshoti pujo fixed ... kanjilalkaku would teach me a Bengali poem and I would ratta marao... thanks to indian education system, we are good at ratta. Of course, I did not understand half of the words! I could feel my teeth rattle just trying to speak those shokto shokto words...But surely felt like Subhash Chandra Bose on stage !! ALL THIS WAS FOR CAMLIN CRAYONS / PENCILS ... NO MATTER HOW WE PERFORMED, WE WON CAMLIN PENCILS / CRAYONS.
The pride of my name being called on stage for multiple participations was immense... made me feel like a winner all the way, CONFIDENCE BHARPUR.

Ending with Piyush Mishra song .... woh suhaane din !!!
