The celebration of Durga Puja begins on Mahalaya, the final day of Pitri Paksha. And just like every year, residents in West Bengal and many other regions of the nation would get up at 4 am to tune in to the radio and listen to the Mahishasur Mardini, which lasts for more than an hour.

The dates change every year, but it is said that this was the day the goddess Durga arrived on Earth. Mahishasur Mardini, for those who are unfamiliar, is a Bengali and Sanskrit radio show that has been airing since 1931 and tells the tale of how Goddess Durga came to Earth and defeated Mahishasura.
