Kadda Puja | The Legend of Siddheshwar | A Ritual Older Than Memory | Goa Stories Special | Goa

In the agrarian village of Kundai, some rituals don’t come with written origins or recorded timelines.
They survive through memory, belief, and collective participation.

Kadda Puja is one such ritual.

Performed annually at the Shree Siddheshwar, near the Navdurga Temple, this centuries-old agrarian tradition centres around fire, hay (karad), and faith — deeply tied to the land and the farming cycle.

This documentary explores:

The living legacy of the Shenvi Kundaikar family

Oral histories and interpretations shared by temple priests

The unique significance of burning hay as ritual offering

The quiet village systems built on trust, duty, and continuity

With no fixed historical records, Kadda Puja remains unwritten — yet alive.

This is not spectacle.
This is continuity.

A story of land, legacy, and a village that chose to remember.
