English-speaking purohits in Kolkata

English-speaking purohits explain each step of the puja as they go, which matters in mixed-language households, for families visiting from abroad, and at children’s samskaras where everyone wants to follow along. The vidhi itself follows the family’s own tradition; say which in the request.
