Brinda Guha I agree I definitely thought Kallol paid more attention to the local talent this year than they do in any Durga Puja or past Bongo Sammelon experiences. Comparatively we did a lot better with highlighting all the groups we have around us and for that I am very happy since that was my biggest complaint since 2005 . The only thing that I thought needed work was the Youth program and Youth talent show. Who is going to run this Bongo Sammelon thing in 50-60 years WE ARE. If not run the program at least hope to play a part in it. There has to be a way to keep my generation interested and stuffing a youth talent show in a small meeting room with no stage and a bad sound system is not going to hold anyone’s interested. Hall A was the perfect place to hold a proper community kids talent show where the participants would have a proper stage the scope of a bigger audience and higher quality acts. But in a small room like the one we were given No one is going to care about which talented teenager is doing what.
