Mahalaya Is Here!

 শুভ মহালয়া! On this grand day of Mahalaya, I write a comical play of the battle between Maa Durga and Mahishashur. This day is a very holy day for the Bengali-Hindus and it's said that Maa Durga descended on  Earth on this day to fight Mohishashoor. People have a festive feeling as Durga Puja is near. This year, it is being celebrated on 17th of September that is today! I hope the play would be liked by you all.  






                                


ACT 1 {SCENE - 1}

MAHISHASHUR (Meditating on the top of the mountain)-OM! NAMASHIWAY! BRAHMA ACHHATAH!

BRAHMA-WHAT DO YOU WANT, CHILD? YOU'RE STANDING HERE FOR SO MANY YEARS  LIKE THIS WITHOUT EATING, DRINKING AND BATHING!

MAHISHASHUR- I WANT TO BE IMMORTAL!! NO LIVING CREATURE CAN KILL ME, NOT EVEN HARM ME! HA! HA!! HA!!!

BRAHMA- Hmmm....NO YOU CAN NOT GET IT!

MAHISHASHUR- THEN, I HAVE BEEN WAITING HERE IN THOSE HARSH CONDITIONS FOR ONLY THESE WORDS OF YOURS? I'VE GOT TO GET IMMORTALITY! 😮

BRAHMA-BUT IT IS NOT ONE OF MY SUPER NATURAL POWERS. OH! BUT, YOU CAN ASK FOR ANY THING ELSE.😇

MAHISHASHUR-LET ME THINK. (Then he thought to himself, "This Brahma doesn't  have any of the good powers. What shall I do now??? WHAT?") GOT IT! YES! GIVE ME THE POWER OF FIGHTING EVERY GOD, ANIMAL, HUMAN, TREE, ETC. NONE OF THEM SHOULD BE ABLE TO SUBDUE ME. 

BRAHMA-THATHHAASTU!                                                                                                                    (He raised up his left palm and blessed the Ashur.)  

ACT 1 {SCENE - 2}

MAHISHASHUR- I AM THE ALL POWERFUL NOW! THOSE MEN CAN NOT KILL ME! BUT.... WAIT! W..W..WH..WAIT, I DIDN'T MENTION WOMEN. OH! BUT WHAT DOES IT MATTER!?! IF THOSE MIGHTY MEN CAN'T KILL ME, WHAT IS THE USE OF WOMEN, HUH?

(He raised his mighty and terribly frightening voice and laughed out loud and called all his ASHUR ARMY)      MY FEARLESS, DESTRUCTIVE, LOYAL, POWERFUL, EVIL MINDED, UNTRUSTWORTHY (OH! NO! NO! NO! I'M SORRY MY DEAR ASHURS, I DIDN'T MEAN TO SAY THAT) ASHUR-GANG, RISE AND DESTROY THE CITIES OF HEAVEN!!!

ONE OF THE ASHURS-EH? CALLING US UNTRUSTWORTHY AND THEN, COMMANDING US TO FOLLOW HIS INSTRUCTIONS! WE WON'T!! (They all jumped up attacked back at the bully leader, but all were killed!) 

MAHISHASHUR-DON'T DARE TO MESS WITH THE ALMIGHTY LEADER! I AM .... THE DEVILGOD!!!!!! (Mahishashur used his power and brought back his Ashur army to life from Yam's doorway)

ASHURS (TOGETHER SHOUTED)- HAMLA! ভয়ানক হলাম আমরা! হি! হা! হা! হা! হা! হা!  

ACT 2 (SCENE - 1)

GODS-BAACHAO! BAACHAO! HELP US! THOSE TERRIBLE DEMONS ARE ATTACKING

(One of the Ashurs were a god's head off and one of them was beating a god with his demonly gada.)

LORD AGNI-SEND MESSAGE TO LORD SHIVA, YOU FOOLS! WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR? 🖂📩✉

LORD INDRA- WE SHOULD ALL GO MEET HIM!

ALL GODS-YAH! YEH! YU'R RIGHT! LET'S ALL TALK TO THE ONE. HE MUST DO SOMETHING ABOUT OUR PROBLEM

(All gods appear in front of Shiva.)

ACT 2 { SCENE - 2}

INDRA-LORD! PLEASE DO SOMETHING OF MY PROBLEM. THE CRUEL MAHISHASHUR AND HIS FELLOW DEMON GANG HAS CUT OFF MY PLUMBING LINES...I CAN NOT PRODUCE RAIN AND CAN NOT BATHE PROPERLY!🤣      

AGNI-OH! GREAT LORD! INDRA IS TALKING NONSENSE. THE MAIN PROBLEM IS THERE IS NO POSSIBILITY OF PUT ON FIRE FOR COOKING! THE অশুরগুলি HAVE TAKEN AWAY MY STOVE AND MY PHONE, SO I CAN NOT ORDER ANOTHER ONE ON AMAZON!🚚 

NARAYAN- NARAYANA! NARAYANA! YES! MY LORD! THE DEVILS ARE DOING NUISANCE IN HEAVEN CITY! I HAD ALREADY BEEN HAVING A LOT OF PROBLEM IN CONNECTING MY PHONE TO THE INTERNET BECAUSE THERE WAS ONLY ONE VODAPHONE TOWER NEAR MY HOUSE. BUT THE UNCIVILISED MONSTERS HAVE BROKEN THE TOWER.

LORD SHIVA- WAIT..WAIT! FOR WHAT ARE YOU ALL CONSULTING ME FOR HELP? I CAN'T HELP! YOU ALL SHOULD PRAY FOR BRAHMA!!🙏

ACT 2 { SCENE - 3}

(All the devas do as told and when Brahma appears they tell their problems to him)

LORD VISHNU- HEY BRAHMA! WHY DID YOU GIVE THAT BOON TO THAT BULL?

BRAHMA- NOWADAYS, WOMEN FLY PLANES, RIDE CARS, LOOK AFTER HOUSEHOLD, PERFORM IN DANCE PROGRAMS, THEY JOIN THE ARMY-FORCES,....

LORD VISHNU- SHUT UP! BY WHAT MEANS DO YOU CONNECT THAT TO THIS, Hmm?

BRAHMA- YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND. DO YOU? I MEAN THAT WHY DIDN'T YOU THINK OF A GODDESS (A FEMALE GOD) ?  I NEVER GAVE HIM IMMORTALITY TO A GODDESS! 

ALL GODS- BUT WHY? WHAT CAN GIRLS DO IF BOYS CAN NOT?!?

BRAHMA-YOU DON'T UNDERESTIMATE LADIES! DO YOU WANT ME TO REPEAT WHAT I JUST SAID?-NOWADAYS, WOMEN FLY PLANES, RIDE CARS, LOOK AF...

LORD SHIVA@LORD VISHNU- OK! UNDERSTOOD! NO NEED OF TELING WHAT YOU HAD TOLD...!

( Creation of the goddess takes place. All gods put in their energy and Maa Durga comes out of Shiva's laboratory. All gods give her 10 weapons one by one which she took in 10 hands.)

[SHE WAS INSTANTLY SENT FOR THE WAR AGAINST THE BULLASHUR.]

ACT 3 { SCENE - 1}

DURGA-মহিষাসুর!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!👿

MAHISHASHUR- ZZZZZZ...! ZZZZZZ...! ZZZZ...! (Snoring...) 😴💤

DURGA- HOY! STUPID ASHUR, IF YOU DARE, COME OUT AND FIGHT ME IF YOU CAN!!

MAHISHASHUR- WHO WAKES ME UP? (In an angry tone) 

[After sometime, he comes out of his den in hell.]

MAHISHASHUR- HARERERERERERERERERERE! (Then suddenly stops- puts a difficult break.) AA? A GOD-DESS?!? I FORGOT TELLING ABOUT GODDESS TO THAT BRAHMA! ANYWAY WHO CARES? HEY, FOOLISH WOMAN..HOW DARE YOU WAKE ME UP? DO YOU KNOW WHOM I AM?

DURGA-YES! OF COURSE! YOU ARE A FAT AND UGLY BULL, AND I AM THE BULL-KILLER!

(Fight begins and continues for 2 long days.)

{AT LAST THE BLADE OF THE TRISHUL PIERCES INTO THE MAHISH'S CHEST AND HE, REMAINS UNDER MAA DURGA'S FEET AND CANNOT MOVE. BUT HE DOES NOT DIE, SO                                             "আসছে বছর আবার হবে!" 😄 }

All Gods Pray to Devi Durga for saving them. Lord Shiva marries her and wait for the next year because with time, Mahishashur will turn into an eagle, fly away and escape and will again rage war.

TRANSFORMERS PRIME-THE BIRTH OF CYBERTRON

This Transformers series has always been my favourite. "TRANSFORMERS PRIME" was first presented on the television screen by the HASBRO company in the channel-Discovery Kids in the year 2010 on 29th November. It is the best of all transformers series according to me because of its brilliant animations and a good story sequence. Here is the exciting history of Cybertron, the planet of the autobots. So, to read it, go ahead and " Transform and roll out !!! "                                                 TRANSFORMERS                 THE HISTORY OF CYBERTRON---                                                  Cybertron A t the beginning of the mighty universe, i.e., at the very moment of the great Big Bang, two powers were formed- Primus and Unicron .
