The residents of SNN Raj Greenbay, Bangalore, came together on October 20, 2025, to celebrate their 3rd Annual Kali Puja with grandeur, devotion, and a strong sense of community spirit.
One of the major attractions this year was the *8-foot-tall Maa Kali idol*, proudly noted as the *second largest in Bangalore*. The stunning idol, crafted by renowned Kolkata idol maker *Sushanta Pal*, stood out for its artistic simplicity — a striking *dual-tone* contrast of grey and red, symbolizing power and grace in perfect balance.
Adding a personal touch to the celebrations, members of the Greenbay Bengali Association *prepared the food required for the entire bhog* and managed their much-loved self-run Luchi Stall, cooking every dish with dedication and warmth. Over *1,500 plates of food* were lovingly served over two days, not just to residents but also to *security guards, housekeeping, and facility staff*— a true gesture of gratitude and inclusiveness.
The festivities also blended tradition with fun. On the eve of *Bhoot Chaturdashi*, kids and residents dressed up in *ghost-themed make-up*, adding laughter and excitement to the evening. A lively *in-house karaoke night* further brought the community together, as participants of all ages sang and celebrated in unison.
Overall, the event beautifully captured the essence of Greenbay’s community spirit — *divine devotion*,**joy, entertainment, and heartfelt giving back* to society.
