Divo Café & Bar, a new premium hotspot for global fusion food and live music, opens its doors in Calangute, Goa

Calangute, October 13^th 2018: Divo Café & Bar, the new hotspot for global fusion food, delectable café bites and excellent cocktails along with euphoric sounds of live music, has opened its doors today amidst much fanfare in Calangute, Goa. With a vision to create an unmatched value proposition in the hospitality industry in India, two young and dynamic entrepreneurs Mr. Trivesh Ajgaonkar and Mr. Shikar Kumar, have come up with this one-of-a-kind premium café and bar in Goa’s flagship beach destination.

Present at the grand opening of Divo Café & Bar were Mr. Michael Lobo, Hon’ble Deputy Speaker of Goa Legislative Assembly and MLA Calangute, Mr. Manohar Ajgaonkar, Hon’ble Minister for Tourism, Govt. of Goa along with other dignitaries. Speaking at the launch, Mr. Lobo stated, “I congratulate Trivesh Ajgaonkar and Shikar Kumar on their new venture which is located not only in my constituency but also in the prime coastal belt that draws lakhs of tourists looking for new hotspots in Goa. I am delighted that Divo Café & Bar has been conceptualized to give tourists an all new experience of fine dining while simultaneously showcasing Goa’s heritage and culture.  I wish this new venture grand success and a prosperous future.”

Other dignitaries present at the launch of Divo Café & Bar included Mr. Vijay Sardesai, Minister for Town and Country planning, Mr. Rohan Khaunte, Revenue Minister, Mr.Vinod Palyekar, Water Resource Minister, Mr. Jayesh Salgaonkar, Minister of Housing,Mr. Deepak Pawaskar,GSIDC Chairman, Mr. Shrinivas Dempo ,Chairman of Dempo Group of companies, Mr. Suraj Lotlikar, GCA president , Mr. Victor Albuquerque , Chairman and Managing Director of Alcon Victor Group, Mr. Agnelo Fernandes , Ex Calangute MLA , Mr. Anil Counto , Chairman and Managing Director of Alcon Enterprises , Mr. Savio Messias,President TTAG , Mr. Babu Quenim, Managing Director, Mandovi Hotels, Mr. Babush Monserrate, Chairman GPPDA ,Mrs. Jennifer Monserrate, Taleigao MLA, Mr. Nandan Kudchadkar, Founder, LPK waterfront and Mr. Suraj Morajkar, Managing Director, Sun Estate Developers.         

Sharing his inspiration behind the launch, Mr. Ajgaonkar, who will be spearheading the operations of Divo Café & Bar stated, “It was early April this year, when I along with my team of young enthusiasts got together to brainstorm on a business idea. We wanted to open a contemporary restaurant that would represent the charming heritage of Goa and draw upon international flavours through an innovative menu. Hence, the idea of opening Divo Café & Bar was born. We believe that the next best thing to eating food is talking about it and hence before finalizing our menu we invited food aficionados to try out our dishes and share their valuable feedback with us. Through this exercise, we were finally able to curate our menu that would offer a diverse range of global fusion food along with quick savory bites.”

Located right on the main street of Calangute, the Divo Café & Bar has been given a vibrant and energetic vibe by Rhea Kumar, the brain child behind the chic interior of the place along with Manuela Mendonca Gomes, noted Goan illustrator. The interiors of the café have been seamlessly blended with its adjoining busy street by adding a beautiful glass facade. To give a luxurious feel of a bar and yet remain true to the concept of being a café, there is a subtle infusion of varying degrees of neutral grey with vibrant colours such as red and green. Tropical plants and artwork interspersed with chic interiors has given Divo a casual yet plush look.

 Mr. Ajgaonkar believes that today, the designs of restobars in Goa have moved beyond coconut branches and laterite stones, to modern minimalistic influences and twists. He adds, “We have worked tirelessly on the interiors which have been inspired by the rich cultural heritage and artistry of Goa. We have also added a wall inspired by the arts of India's most well recognized illustrator, Mario Miranda. The Mario Miranda wall is the key element within the café which showcases some of the illustrator’s most noted drawings.”

Apart from the impressive décor, the cuisine at Divo Café & Bar is equally worth remembering. Be it breakfast, lunch or dinner, there is a perfect dish for one to savour. One can start the meal with a humble yet overwhelming bowl of Tomato Basil Soup. The colourful and photogenic Divo Signature Sandwich served with a side of fries is something one must try for a quick fill. Hand crafted, delicately prepared and ready to be devoured, the Watermelon Feta Salad is perfection in every mouthful. Grilled chicken marinated in a mélange of Mediterranean spices, gives this meat dish a flavour par excellence. Back in history one of the most famous cocktails was the Moscow Mule. This age old spirited combination has found its way into their menu as well, where it is served in the traditional Highball Copper Mug. One can also try their Kiwi and Banana Smoothie, a healthy alternative to kick-start the weekend. 

The day-to-day operations at Divo Café & Bar will be handled by General Manager Mr. Sahil Joshi, an energetic and passionate hospitality professional. Looking after the kitchen operations will be Executive Chef Manas Patra, known for whipping up some of the best continental and global delicacies alongside his dedicated and most hospitable team.

Divo Café & Bar located right on the Calangute-Baga main road is all set to offer a range of scrumptious food and exciting events as the tourism season commences in Goa.

MAHA PANCHAMI PUJA & MURTI STHAPNA

The oldest and the biggest Durga Puja in Mumbai- North Bombay Sarbojanin Durga Puja Samiti members ! Samrat Mukherjee & Kajol Devgun, Ayan Mukherjee, sumona Chakravarti,  Debu Mukherjee, were seeking blessings on the panchami .

Kajol visited the pandal & seeked blessings of Maa Durga. 

Veteran actor & organiser Debu Mukherjee & Krishna Mukherjee says "Today was Maha Panchami Puja & Murti Sthapna of Maa's protima. We are looking forward to the festivity.We welcome each & everyone with open arms to seek the blessings of Maa. Service & devotion is what our main focus is what makes our North Bombay Sarbojanin Durga Puja Samiti unique"

Durga Puja is celebrated from Shasti to Bijoya Dashimi.

MAHASHASHTI: On this day,  Maa is welcomed with much fan fare. In the evening ,the Kulo is decorated with Paan, Sindur, Alta, Sheela (stone) , Dhaan etc..and amidst the beats of Dhaak and sound of Shaankh, Maa is welcomed...  This is called Amontron and Adhivas -Maa's Bodhon...Maa is being welcomed.

MAHASAPTAMI: On  this  day  the   Kalash (Earthen Pot) is  placed  with  a  green Coconut  and  Mango  Leaves .  This is surrounded on all sides by a red thread and tied. This is called KALASH STHAPAN. The Kalash is an earthen Pot because Maa's Murti is made of Ganga clay and Maa's PRAAN (or life) is concentrated in the Pot. So the Pot is the symbol of Maa.  The  Puja  starts  with  praying  to  Ganapati  ,  followed  by  prayers  to  Maa.  Another name of Maa Durga is NABA PATRIKA, which means nine trees i.e.Banana tree, Kochu tree, Haldi tree, Jayanti tree, Branch of Bel tree, Dalim tree ( pomegranate) are tied together. The double Bel fruit is tied to the Banana tree. This is then taken to a river bank or sea and given a bath. When it is brought back it is drapped in a white and red sari with sindur and it now looks like a married lady with her head covered. This is called KOLA BAHU. Many have a misconception that KOLA BAHU is wife of Ganapati but actually she is MaaDurga or Naba Patrika.. Ganapati's mother

MAHA SNAN: On this day Maa Durga is given a bath. First a vessel is  placed  in front of the Murti; a mirror is kept in the vessel, so that the reflection of Maa is seen in the mirror. The   Priest applies Haldi and Mustard oil on the mirror, as though they are applying it on Maa before the bath. In earlier times  when there was no soap, haldi and mustard oil were used for  having bath. The Pujari puts different kinds of water, i.e. Coconut water, Chandan, Ganga jal, Sugar cane juice, water from seven holy seas to give her bath. During this time, mud from every region, as well as mud from Prostitute’s door is very essential. After bath the Pujari puts dhaan- durba and new sari with Maa’s name written on  the mirror which is then placed on the Bedi (the place of worship).

PRAN PRATISTHA: This  means bringing life into the mirror.  The Pujari takes Kusha and flowers in the right hand, and touches Maa from head to foot and with Mantra Path life is brought into the Murti, Mirror and Kalash.

MAHA AGAMAN: Every year Maa comes either on a Palki or an Elephant or a Boat or a Dola (Swing) , or a Horse etc.  This Bengali year 1423, Goddess Durga's arrival on a horse signifies, indicates the "bad horse"- The most destructive mood, hence all her path is trampled. The Goddess arrives & leaves the earth on the same vehicle, indicating natural calamities, social unrest and political upheavals. Maa Durga's agaman- is on the horse & gaman - on a horse.

Welcome : The puja to welcome Maa is done with 16 items- Ashan  Swagatam [ Welcome ], Paddyo [ Water  To  Wash The  Feet ], Argho, Achmoniyom, Madhu Parkam , Purnar Achmaniyam, Abharan [ Shringar], Sindoor, Gandha [ Scent ], Pushpa[ Flower],  Pushpa Mallya [ Garland] , Billo Patra [Bel Leaf] , Billopatra Mala[ Garland Of Bel Leaf], Dhoop,Deep, Kajal, Naibiddo, Bhog And Mishti [Sweet], Paan, Supari.

PUSHPANJALI [PRAYER OFFERING]: Puspanjali means offering prayers at Maa’s feet to give everyone long life, fame, good luck, health, wealth, happiness. The devotees request Maa to protect them from all evil, sadness, greed & temptations.

MAHA ASHTAMI PUJA: Maa is now Maha Gauri- The Puja starts with Mahasnan & Maha gauri puja. The Puja is done to give Maa the strength of the 64 Yoginis. This is a Puja of 9 pots.Then the weapons of Maa are worshipped.

SHANDHI PUJA : This is the puja when Ashtami Puja ends and Navami Puja begins,so the name Shandhi puja. This is considered to be the most vital time, meeting (shandhi)of Ashtami and Navami  puja. The duration of this Puja is 45 minutes. At this moment  Maa is CHAMUNDA.

Pushpanjali: Prayer offering

Bhog is offered which consists of fruits and sweets are offered to Maa, followed by  "NEET  BHOG" , consisting of  Rice, Ghee, Dal, Fried Vegetables, Chutney and Payesh.  This prasad  is later distributed amongst the devotees which is called KANGALI BHOJAN.

At this time 108 diyas are lit and 108 lotus are offered to Maa.

There is a famous story that Lord Ram prayed to Maa Durga offering 108 lotus at her feet in order to defeat Ravan. But to his surprise he found one lotus  missing , to replace it ,he wanted to sacrifice his eye and pray to Maa..at that moment Maa appeared in front of him and stopped him..returning the missing lotus to him.  She then blessed him for his " VICTORY".

MAHA NAVAMI PUJA : On this day, Maa is SIDDHI DHATRI. This Puja starts with  Ganapati Puja and then puja of all the other DEV and DEVIS are performed..followed by Maha Snan of Maa.

BIJOYA DASHAMI:-On this day Maa had defeated and killed Mahishashur.

DEVI PUJA:- Bhog with curd, honey and milk is offered to Maa.. this is called CHARANAMRIT. The pujari sitting on the Asan takes a flower near the sacred pot and keeps it in the Northern direction because Maa is from KAILASH. Then the  pujari takes the sacred mirror which was on the vessel and performs the ritual of Visharjan. This is the same mirror which was used to welcome Maa because her reflection is on the mirror .

SINDUR  UTSAV: The married ladies apply sindur on Maa's  forehead and offer sweets after which all the other  ladies apply sindur on each other's forehead. This is followed by  KANAK ANJALI when Maa is departing back to her husband's abode.

VISHARJAN:- During the Visharjan of the Murti, all the devotees either go to a river bank or sea and immerse the Murti in the water.

SHANTI JAL: -The sacred pot is brought back from the river/sea filled with the water where the Murti is immersed. Then the pujari chants the Mantra and sprinkles water with the help of mango leaves on the head of all the devotees for peace and happiness.

DASSERA: This is the day of rejoicement, where youngsters touch the feet of their elders seeking their blessings and sweets are distributed.  North Bombay Sarbojanin Durga  Puja Samiti  is the only Durga Puja Samiti which performs the visarjan with the help of  fork lift and  crane. The idols  are  lifted from the truck and then taken till the middle of the sea with the help of a crane .After the seven parikramas  are performed, they are then finally immersed one by one into the sea.
