The best way to wish Mahalaya is here ! Experience Mahalaya like never before  with Gulzar, Bhupinder Singh, Mitali Singh, Usha Utthup and many renowned celebrities with Vodafone aagomoni
 Durga Puja, the much awaited annual festivity is just a few days away and here is the chance  to welcome Ma Durga in a never before way. The residents of Bengal will herald the onset of Mahalaya by waking up to the resounding melody of Birendra Krishna Bhadra’s “Chandipath”.The night will be worth waiting for.  There is an essence of joy attached to it for Bengalis.

So Mahalaya, which brings along with it, a unique spirit and festive air, including the fragrance of Night Jasmine & Catkin flowers is a part and parcel of life for every Bengali for which they wait the entire year. . There is one more iconic event that connects Kolkata and Mahalaya very closely, Vodafone Aagomoni, the annual nightlong grand musical extravaganza held on the eve of Mahalaya, which will host its 17th edition this year .No matter in which part of the world a bengali is, he or she simply can’t afford to miss Mahalaya for the very essence of it.

What’s unique about #VodafoneAagomoni may be the question in every one’s mind. Vodafone brings together an eclectic mix of music and dance legends – Gulzar, Bhupinder Singh, Mitali Singh, Mamata Shankar, Usha Utthup, Soumyajit Das, Sourendra Mullick, Upal Sengupta, Anindya Chatterjee, Iman Chakraborty, Indrani Dutta to name a few to celebrate this significant day and event like no other with the people of Bengal.

So, like every year, this year too Vodafone India in association with a leading FM channel will be conducting a “Slogan Contest”, enabling 200 listeners to win couple passes to Vodafone Aaagomoni 2017 (Find Link here). Interested participants will have to come up with innovative and interesting slogans on Vodafone Aagomoni. Vodafone Aagomoni 2017 will also be telecasted LIVE on Zee Bangla.   (https://www.vodafone.in/media/press-release-details?mid=1793). This is simply an awesome chance which I bet no Bengali would like to miss out on. So come, Join in and be a part of this musical extravaganza and live the essence of Bengal, the joy of coming of Maa Durga to demolish the devil.

So this began in 2000 as an endeavour to translate our Vodafone’s Bengal, Bengal’s Vodafone ideology, has grown bigger and better with each passing year.This year is no exception for sure.  West Bengal is know for its art and cultural heritage being the land of Rabindranath Tagore and thus Drawing participation and accolades from the who’s who of art and culture in West Bengal. This is a superb concept which I bet every Bengali would cherish.
