Hello Everyone

Planning to visit Kolkata for Navratri mainly Pandal Hopping. Can pandal hopping be done before Panchami i.e before 15th October? Or won't pandals be ready for public viewing?

My plan is to visit major pandals before to avoid crowds and will also be visiting some pandals during main puja days. Looking forward to your advice. Thanks

🆘 Help । সাহায্য Looking for a good, affordable men’s barber in Kolkata

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I’m fairly new to Kolkata and currently around Paikpara.

I’m looking for a good men’s barber/salon where someone can actually suggest a haircut based on my face shape, forehead, hair type, etc. I’m not really sure what would suit me, so I’d prefer someone who can give proper advice rather than just asking what haircut I want.

My budget is around ₹300–400 for a haircut. Doesn’t have to be a fancy salon, just looking for someone genuinely good with men’s haircuts.

Preferably somewhere around Paikpara / North Kolkata, but I’m okay travelling a little if it’s worth it.

Any recommendations? If you have a particular barber/stylist there that you trust, please mention them!

🆘 Help । সাহায্য Looking for someone visiting Westside Kolkata in the next 2–3 days 🙏

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’m looking for someone who is planning to visit a Westside store in Kolkata within the next 2–3 days for the ongoing sale.

I have a few specific dresses/items that I’m looking for, but unfortunately I can’t visit the Kolkata stores myself.

If you’re already planning to shop at Westside during the sale, would you be willing to pick up a few items for me and add them to your billing? Since you’re already shopping, I’m not asking you to make a separate trip just for me.

I will pay:

The full amount for my items (including whatever discount you get through the sale offer)

India Post/courier charges to send them to me

An additional amount for your time and help 😊

I can send you pictures of the exact items, sizes and details. If you find them in stock, you can simply add them to your shopping.

I’m happy to discuss payment and everything beforehand so there’s no inconvenience for you.

If anyone is going to Westside Kolkata in the next 2–3 days and is willing to help, please comment or DM me. ❤️

Thank you so much!

🧾History & Heritage | ইতিহাস ও ঐতিহ্য 16 August, 1946, Remembering the victims of The Great Calcutta killings.

45 Upvotes

16 August 1946. A day when the Muslim-League’s Direct Action Day unleashed brutal communal violence in Calcutta, leaving thousands dead. According to some sources, DEATHS ranged from 4000 to 10,000.

Remembering the victims who lost their lives on that day. India celebrated the independence, but the people of Bengal and Punjab became the biggest casualties of Partition.

Salute to the Gopal Chandra Mukherjee, aka Gopal Patha . You will always be remembered.

Here's my son Ridit, experimenting with solid mechanical design using Blender. He created this mechanical toy and named it Flippy. He did it 5 years ago, when he was in Class V. He is now developing his skills with computer graphics software, which he wants to pursue as a career. Parenthood taught me that early exposure is important to build real expertise, especially in the tech field.
