This is what sugary dreams are made of.
Came across this desi Willy Wonka sitting pretty surrounded by his mountains of traditional sweetmeats in the 226th edition of Chandi Mela - a traditional annual fair held in the month of December in Behala in South Kolkata.
I was trying to catch a good angle of the sugar mountains when the gentleman in the centre spoke up, “Didi, bhalo kore tuloon aar internet e deeye deben” (Sister, click properly and post the picture on internet). Turns out last Durga Puja, he had set up shop in one of the most popular areas of Kolkata and some visitors had clicked his picture there. That pic made its way to Facebook and was shared so much that it it’s way back to his family and relatives, much to his surprise and joy.
So here’s another one for our desi Willy Wonka. Hope this one makes its way back to him as well.
