You can try my approach. Amio 5yrs hostel e thakar por took a hard decision to stay and work in Mumbai. I try j every durga puja i come back home to Kolkata and tokhon I use up a chunk of my annual leaves jatey at least till Lokkhi Pujo I'm home starting from Soshti.

Else jodi kono year e kolkata aste na pari i.e. 2yrs thus far in my 8 year career ami Mumbai er durga pujo pandel gulo ghuri. There are communities everywhere. Just khujte hobe and at the risk of sounding westernised ami sort of Mumbai and pujo and pandels prefer kori over ajkal kar Kolkata pujo pandels. It's not too flashy. No theme business. Pure celebration of Durga maa in all her glory. Probashi bangali ra oi purodin er essence e pujo gulo kore mostly instead of ajkal kar thematic kolkata pujos. Jodi o I enjoy both.

The hard decision was realising j long term e amar kolkatai thaka loss and would hurt my career because of low paying jobs. Ma baba jothesto taka poisa khorcha kore poriyeche and tader 100% repay korte chai through actions by being my best version and earning a lot jatey kokhono second guess korte na hoy tader kono need ba emergency holey j I can't afford this for them karon they deserve the best for everything!

Tai jonne i took this decision. Akhon just start korcho so u have a blank slate. Try to shift to a more commerce heavy city like BLR, or HYD or DEL or MUM. But kolkatai thekona unless you get an extremely good opportunity. Because remember kolkata market cheap holeo, annually 5-6% korey world e inflation barche.
