Durga Puja
Our biggest celebration — four days of pujo, dhak, anjali, bhog and adda in the heart of Miyapur.
Miyapur, Hyderabad
Uniting Hearts,
Celebrating the Culture of Bengal
Oikotan brings together Bengali families in Hyderabad to keep our festivals, music, language and traditions alive — and to welcome everyone who loves them.
What we celebrate
Cultural Evenings
Rabindra Sangeet, recitation, dance and drama performed by children and families of the community.
Community Bhog
Everyone sits together for khichuri, labra and payesh — the warmth that makes Oikotan a family.
A home away from home
From the first dhak beat of Shashthi to the sweets of Bijoya, Oikotan is where Bengali families in Miyapur find their community. Our programmes are run entirely by volunteers, and everyone — Bengali or not — is welcome to join, perform and celebrate.
