While Durgapuja of Kolkata ,being a symbolic representation of intangible cultural heritage, it all starts with the artisans of Kumortuli and similar places where the artists sculpt out the idols to be worshipped with silt from the Ganga and hay.
This transformation takes months to reach its final shape and grandeur after which they are celebrated, but the way the magical transformation takes place depicts the true dedication towards the art form and giving the festivities their final pomp.
