Yes The Durgapooja theme felt modern bcos of the instruments used. But I feel that this may be a sequence and seems to be like some thrilling sequence. Though it starts normal but gains its own tempo and expressed somekind of suspense. The theme bit sounds like the maharashtrian. But I like the usage of the dhollaks a typical one been played by the orrisa dance troops, I appologise for not getting the right name.
