Bangalorer Bangali Adda on Clubhouse

Description

Bengalis have, of course, lived in Bangalore (now Bengaluru) for decades. Being a centre of learning as well as public sector undertakings, Bengalis have been settling here for a long time. However, in the past few years, it seems the number has increased massively. Walk down any road anywhere now, or step into a mall and one is bound to hear Bangla being spoken, or to see a portly Bengali gentleman walking around with his long-haired, doe eyed Bengali wife or girlfriend with him. Come the days of Durga Puja, the entire Bengali population seems to descend on to the puja spots. And suddenly, everyone knows what is anjali, how to stand in queue for the prasad, when the dhakis will strike up their beats, when the yell will come saying, "keu phool chhurben na, sabai basketey din" (place the flowers in the baskets, don’t throw them) and of course hear the familiar sizzling smell of rolls, phuchka, chop-cutlet and our very own biriyani with an aloo.
