Yesterday, I went to a cultural programme at Nazrul Mancha in Kolkata, organised by a telecom company to observe the ensuing Durga Puja. They represented some of noted celebrities of the city in the field of music and culture. Ustad Rashid Khan, Soumitra Chattopadhyay, Srikumar Chattopadhyay, Bratati Bandyopadhyay, Debajit Bandyopadhyay, Friend of Fusion, Dohar were among them. Satinath Mukhopadhyay and Gargi RoyChowdhury were the comperes. The day before yesterday, the said telecom company informed me that I won free couple passes of the programme as one of the highest 5 users of the company and advised me to collect the free passes from a store of the company. I told the info to my son and he hearing this, he became enthusiastic to go with me. Hence, we went to the spot to watch the programme. The function was a huge success as Calcuttans was so eager to observe the "AGAMANI" or ensuing Durga Puja with the local celebrities.

I had been at Durgapur from 1972-77 and still enjoy those memories of my stay there.
