Badal Das a.k.a Badal da is an ardent Mohun Bagan fan and has been following the club since he was 12 years old. He is a floral decorator by profession but always makes time to watch his favorite team play. He has won the distinction of being the 'shera-dorshok' on five occasions.



We caught up with Badal da after Mohun Bagan went undefeated against bitter rivals East Bengal during the season.

It is a great feeling. Would have been better if we had won the last match too but we were a player down for the last 15 minutes, so a draw was also a great result for us.

I made it especially for the East Bengal match. I used thermocol to make it and then painted it. I also made a boat once for the 'boro match' and took it to the stadium.

The 5-3 victory against East Bengal was the best. In 1975 they had scored 5 goals against us and finally scoring 5 against them was like settling an old score.

Barreto, Shishir Ghosh, Subrata Bhattacharya, Debjit and Prashanta.

I have been to Goa, Ludhiana, Guwahati, Delhi, Orissa and a few other places to support Mohun Bagan. Celebrating victories with friends is great but a loss makes us very sad. I find it hard to eat when we lose.

Yes, I think it's beautiful. There was no talk of a new team bus and it was a pleasant surprise for us when the bus came. The club did a very good thing.

I like Chingri Malai Curry.
