About this pujo

Babu Khelat Chandra Ghosh's palatial Pathuriaghata mansion, famous for its 85-ft marble corridor and the Khelat Ghosh Memorial Hall.

This is one of Kolkata's bonedi bari (aristocratic household) Durga Pujas — celebrated privately inside a family thakurdalan rather than a public pandal. Visitors are welcome during the puja days; dress conservatively and ask permission before photographing family members.

Planning your visit

Durga Puja 2026 runs from Maha Shashthi (Oct 17) through Vijaya Dashami (Oct 21). Bonedi bari pujas follow their own ritual timings — early morning or late afternoon is usually best to avoid crowds. Check the helpline numbers before you head out.
