Quiz is something which is enjoyed by everyone – old and young.
This time, London Sharad Utsav and Bengal Heritage Foundation, supported by Asian Voice, brings in a rousing fanfare and takes the quizzing experience to a different level by organising “Asian Voice Bengal Heritage Quiz” – a fun and entertaining way of exploring and learning more about Bengal Heritage.
Bengalis are known to love nostalgia, so a quizzical evening which would stir nostalgia of the heritage would be delightful for the NRB crowd here in London.
Regardless of whether one knows the correct answer or not, the stimulus to the brain cells to recollect something that is connected to one’s roots will compel one to think how much of the Bengal heritage they are aware of.
How many people know that Bengali is the sweetest language in the world by Unesco or the Great Banyan Tree in Botanical Garden in Kolkata is the largest tree in the world in terms of areas covered or that Rabindranath Tagore has also written the National Anthem for Bangladesh apart from Jana Gana Mana – the National anthem for India.
There are plenty such facts about Bengal and Bengalis which people tend to believe they know but often they end up knowing incorrect facts. This Durga Puja, the Bengali diaspora is going to experience for the first time a Bengal Heritage Quiz evening here in London on the 19th October in Ealing Town Hall.
