Good morning / evening Tanay Sir. I might be wrong again. Didn't noticed it carefully. I can only remember that i have seen, many a times, puja-ads / greetings card bearing images of 'KASH PHOOL & SIULI PHOOL'. I can remember its sweet smell and orange tinge. I feel nostalgic when i remember those beautiful stories of village lass making garlands using those flowers! However, please take a look at : 1) http://updateox.com/sms/50-durga-puja-sms-in-bangla/ 2) http://www.flickr.com/photos/hgmphotos/2897259748/ 3) http://www.flickr.com/photos/21833494@N00/1442942982/ 4) http://media.meme4u.com/ecards/holidays/durga-puja/happy-durga-puja/477-maa-protects-you.jpg 5) many many more!
