Not in Bhubaneswar?
2 h 35 min, starting at sunset.
Nirnaya Sindhu quotes Vyasa: “trimuhūrtaḥ pradoṣaḥ syād bhānāv astaṃ gate sati”, that is, Pradosh is the three muhurtas after the sun has set. Three of the night's fifteen muhurtas are its first fifth, worked out from this city's own sunset.
Why Pradosh begins at 5:05 PM in Bhubaneswar
Sunset, and with it Pradosh, comes 20 minutes earlier in Bhubaneswar than in New Delhi (5:25 PM). Bhubaneswar lies 8.6° east of New Delhi. The Earth turns through that in about 34 minutes, so on longitude alone the sun sets 34 minutes earlier here. Bhubaneswar's latitude takes back 14 minutes of that: it changes the length of the day and of the night.
