THE BIGGEST FESTIVAL OF WEST BENGAL

My Scholarship entry - MATRIBONDONA - THE TALE OF GODDESS DURGA

‘Chhou Naach’ is a very famous form of dance in India. People dance & play various epics & mythological stories wearing various types of masks, ornaments & weapons in this dance. Here in a procession, a puja committee organised a ‘Chhou naach’ to entertain their viewers. That day, these dancers performed ‘Ashur Nidhan’ which shows how the goddess Durga killed evil demon ‘Mahishashur’ in heaven.
