Rent-a-Date: The New Puja Trend

Ditch the loneliness this Durga Puja! A viral social media trend is sweeping the city: “Rental Partners.” For a fee, you can hire a companion to hop pandals, grab dinners, and pose for perfect festive photos. It is the ultimate solution for those dodging awkward questions or flying solo. But beware—safety first! Always verify strangers before meeting up for your festive escapades.
