​A taste of Christmas in Kolkata

We took a bunch of child actors and celebs for a walk around festive hotspots in the city. Here’s how it went.. 'I’m very nostalgic right now. I went to New Market after almost 10 years today and walked down Park Street around this time of the year after many, many years. Overall, it was a brilliant experience' – Shaheb Bhattacherjee, actor 'Over the years, certain iconic places have transformed into Christmas must-visits, beckoning visitors to partake in the celebrations. From historic eateries to vibrant pubs the city is drenched in Xmas cheer'– Manjit Singh Hoonjan, walk guide 'School has closed for Christmas break today and I’ve directly come here. I’ll buy a Christmas tree, decorate it and wait for Santa’s gift. It’s so much fun to be here' – Aritrika Chowdhuri 'I loved the old bakery. Never seen so many cakes together! Eating cakes and buying trees is my favourite part of Christmas'– Samadarshi Sarkar'I loved the experience and really enjoyed all the Christmas treats'– Shohoj Banerjee'My son Shohoj and I enjoyed it a lot today.
