00:00It is said that whether it is a fast or a festival, some sweets are made.
00:04In this sweet, Kalakand or today's children's favorite milk cake comes at the top.
00:10On a big festival like Diwali, Kalakand is the talk of the town.
00:15Without Kalakand, the worship of Goddess Lakshmi seems incomplete.
00:19By the way, do you know where did all the favorites and popular sweets come from from children to adults?
00:27If not, then let me tell you about the interesting history of Kalakand.
00:32Kalakand's history is associated with freedom.
00:35The story of Kalakand is very interesting.
00:38It started with a coincidence.
00:40It is said that Baba Thakurdas, who lived in Pakistan before independence, was a skilled confectioner.
00:47One day when he was boiling milk, suddenly the milk burst.
00:51Being sad that the milk was ruined, he thought that it should be saved somehow.
00:56And in the same way, a delicious sweet was made by mistake.
01:00Dasji started cooking the burst milk on a low flame.
01:05And was surprised when he saw that grains were falling in the milk.
01:10And its making has become quite unique.
01:13He added a little sugar to it and cooked it more.
01:17After hours of hard work, a new sweet was ready.
01:21Its taste was amazing.
01:24Now it comes to how this sweet got the name Kalakand.
01:28When people tasted this new sweet, they were stunned.
01:32And asked Baba Thakurdas about its name.
01:36Dasji smiled and said,
01:38This is art.
01:40And that's why this sweet got the name Kalakand.
01:43After independence, the Das family settled in Alwar, Rajasthan.
01:48And made Kalakand more popular here.
01:51Even today, the third generation of the Das family is making this traditional sweet.
01:56And is feeding its taste to people in India and abroad.
01:59By the way, let me tell you that Atalji was also very fond of this sweet.
02:03The artists of India's former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee Alwar were so fond.
02:09That they would stop their caravan and eat the Kalakand made by the Das family.
02:14Whenever their caravan passed through Alwar,
02:17They never missed the opportunity to enjoy a delicious sweet.
02:21Today, Thakurdas' Kalakand is spreading its popularity even in countries like Dubai, crossing the borders of India.
02:29By the way, Kalakand is so popular with people.
02:32That in many homes, preparations to make Kalakand are made before Diwali.
02:37So that on Diwali night, it can be enjoyed with the whole family.
