Kali Puja in Bangalore
Kali Puja is kept most devotedly in Bangalore by Bengali, Assamese and Odia families, for whom the new moon night of Kartik is Shyama Puja rather than only Deepavali. The worship runs through the night, with red hibiscus, lamps and offerings to Maa Kali.

What is Kali Puja?
Worship of Maa Kali, the fierce and compassionate form of the Divine Mother, traditionally offered on Amavasya and on the night of Kartik Amavasya.
Families from other traditions also book a Kali Puja at home on Amavasya or at a time of difficulty. A Pandit can perform a simple household puja with mantra, aarti and bhog, or a fuller night puja where the family wants it.
वक्रतुण्ड महाकाय सूर्यकोटि समप्रभ।
निर्विघ्नं कुरु मे देव सर्वकार्येषु सर्वदा॥
Vakratuṇḍa mahākāya sūryakoṭi samaprabha, nirvighnaṁ kuru me deva sarvakāryeṣu sarvadā.
Why Families Choose Bangalore for Kali Puja
Bangalore's Bengali community has grown with the city's technology and research institutions, and several associations hold Kali Puja pandals after Durga Puja. Families who cannot get to a pandal, or who want the puja at home as they had it growing up, look for a Pandit who knows the Bengali vidhi.
For Kannada families the same Amavasya is Deepavali, with Naraka Chaturdashi before it and Bali Padyami after it. Being clear that you want Kali Puja and not the Deepavali Lakshmi Pooje helps us find the right Pandit.

Local Traditions & Timing
- Kali Puja muhurtha is usually late at night; confirm that your gated community will allow the Pandit in and out at that hour.
- Pandits familiar with Bengali vidhi are fewer in Bangalore than in eastern India, so enquire several weeks ahead.
- Firecracker smoke and noise rules around Deepavali vary by building; plan lamps rather than crackers near the puja area.
- Hibiscus is easy to find in Bangalore flower markets like KR Market, but buy it on the day for freshness.
Where It's Performed & Planning Tips
Where it's performed
- Your home, with an image or murti of Maa Kali
- A clubhouse or hall used by a Bengali or community association
- An independent house where a night long puja is easier to hold
- Online sankalpa for family members outside Bangalore
Planning tips
- Tell us whether you want Bengali, Assamese, Odia or North Indian style, and your preferred language.
- Keep red hibiscus, lamps, sweets and bhog ingredients ready, or ask for samagri to be arranged.
- Confirm the exact muhurtha with the Pandit, since it can fall close to midnight.
- If a homa is included, check your building's rules first.
