Hey everyone! I’ve been exploring Kolkata over the last few days, and honestly, the experience from Day 1 has been amazing. I like the energy here and the people are really good.

Since I am used to Mumbai, it is very easy to compare both cities. One thing I noticed from the very first day is that people follow traffic rules—most people wear helmets and stop at red lights, which is really good to see 🚦.

There were a few cultural things that felt a bit new, but I was already quite aware of them and now I'm actually experiencing it all firsthand.

Right now, my pandal hopping is going on, and I also visited the Dakshineshwar Temple as well as checking out two-three pubs 🍻. The mix of everything here is just great.

I am meeting a lot of people and exploring different places. I will try to share more updates from today onwards 📸.

By the way, I am 26M and a pure vegetarian 🌱, so if anyone is in Kolkata and wants to hang out, or has any good vegetarian food spots/ mithaai or must-visit places to suggest, please feel free to DM me or drop a comment! 🙌

It's over.

I’ve been flying over Kolkata for the last 11 years, and I don’t think I’ve ever seen the city look this boring from above. Kolkata just doesn’t seem to be glowing anymore. It feels so different from what I’m used to seeing.

This year every pujo feels so forced like soulless all in a hurry just to be presentable to people in ja jaihok taihok manner

Today we had our north kolkata trip and it was very disappointing so many pandel we just barely managed to complete and most of them are not even open yet.... Either they were under construction or were waiting for other celebrities to inaugurate

I don't what it is it, is it those organiser, people around, the govt, or just me but it doesn't feel right 💔

(This isn't a political post, if I see any chaddis commenting something ulta sidha I won't even entertain those)

There is also an ongoing offer of 25 off on the 1st ticket on paytm

Mali fantastically portray it again!

So I turned 22 today and I kinda feel je amar onek boyosh hoye geche.. Jai hok any piece of advice which u want to give..

South er pujo

I am new to west bengal and thus my staff makes me try pure Bangla khabar time and again. Recently they made me try chicken kosha, basanti pulao and beguni thali (1st image), and ilish mach bhaat with potul and aloo poshto thali (2nd image). If you were in my place, which would be your ultimate go to Bangla khabar out of this?

South maxing and drinking
