5 Reasons Why Nerolac’s Larger Than Life Mural Is A Precious Durga Puja Gift To The City

The popular Durga Pooja festival has a great traditional value and it is celebrated with much zeal all over the country, especially in India’s northeastern part. Its splendor can be guessed by the fact that apart from India, some other countries like Nepal and Bangladesh also celebrate it enthusiastically. The festival has mythological values attached to it as well. Centered on Hindu Goddess Durga, this is one of the biggest festivals for Bengalis.

What could be a nobler task than promoting art and culture of a country and Kansai Nerolac has been dedicated to this for a long time? The SPSP mural painting competition is held by the company every year in which over 1000 artists from across the nation take part.
