Delhi: Dextrous hands molding fine clay into divinity. This annual ritual which is at the heart of Delhi's annual festive season can be seen slowly unfolding at the West Delhi Kalibari. Artisans from 24 Pargana and Kolkata, West Bengal have been at it for the last three months. As the completion of Durga idols in the deft hands of these traditionally trained artisans nears, Delhi's relentless summer eases into a somewhat pleasant September. The making of Durga idol for the Durga Puja celebrations is any photographer's delight, and we at CitySpidey would not have missed this opportunity.
