The audience and performers were all decked up in hues of blue and white representing monsoon. The two groups of dancers, gave no less than magical performances, as they gracefully embraced the rhythms of the monsoon songs welcoming the rains to the parched surroundings. One of the major attractions of the event was the melodious songs by the talented choir of the society.

Among all these events, the major highlight of the day was, the declaration of the pre-pujo extravaganza, "Bodhon" 2024, by the Deputy President and all the core committee members of the society. Bodhon is an event encompassing every emotion as a Bengalee awaits the arrival of Goddess Durga.

Despite being an apparently small-scale event of BLS, this was a huge success. The voices of the audience were synced with the Bengali monsoon songs, and reverberated all across the premises of the college, as the rain continued to wash away the gloomy and despondent aura of the weather.

As celebrations of monsoon- "Tomar Priyo Ritu Borsha Tayi" came to an end with an enthralling jamming session with the audience, the declaration of the next event, Bodhon, again sparked hopes of more fun, entertainment and happiness, both in the hearts of the audience as well as the members of the society.
