Pujo toh cholei elo.

Shopping has started. Bari jawar tickets are booked. The Pujo playlist is back. And every Bangali in Bangalore is asking:

“Pujoy ki korchish?”

“Kobe bari jachhish?”

“Dekha hobe toh?”

So, Pujo’r aagey ekbaar dekha hok?

Three Addas, hundreds of Bangalis, countless songs and a frankly unreasonable amount of adda later; Bangla Collective is back with ADDA 4.0.

An evening of Bangla gaan, open mic, performances, GaanBaajna and the kind of adda that feels like home.

What you can expect?

Open Mic: Gaan. Kobita. Comedy. Dance.

GaanBaajna: We play. Everybody sings.

Maybe Pujo gifts? Maybe Dhaak? Maybe some Alta?

And obviously, Adda: the pointless, wonderful, “achha shon…” kind.

Come with your people. Come alone and find some.

Sing loudly. Talk to strangers. Stay for “aar ekta gaan.”

Dekha hochche.
