Bollywood Stars Celebrate Durga Puja with Grandeur and Devotion

Bollywood icons Rani Mukerji and Kajol recently participated in the Durga Puja celebrations held at the North Bombay Sarbojanin Durga Puja in Juhu, Mumbai. The “Kuch Kuch Hota Hai” co-stars were seen enjoying the festive spirit, greeting family and friends, and posing for photographs at the grand pandal on Wednesday evening.

A video shared on social media platforms captured a moment where Rani and Kajol stood before the idol of Goddess Durga. During the “aarti,” the two actors clapped along to the traditional “dhak” drum beats, joining in the devotional practices. Rani appeared elegant in a blue, printed silk saree, while Kajol radiated charm in a yellow saree with minimal makeup.

Another video showed Kajol arriving with her sister Tanishaa Mukerji, warmly greeting Rani and pausing for more photographs. Kajol was also spotted seeking blessings, with Rani standing respectfully beside her with folded hands in front of the priests. This annual celebration sees the two actresses embrace the festivities with enthusiasm.

Rani Mukerji, who recently attended an award ceremony in Abu Dhabi, where she won the Best Actress award for “Mrs Chatterjee Vs Norway,” was also present at the event. She dedicated her award to mothers worldwide. Meanwhile, fans eagerly anticipate Kajol’s upcoming film, “Do Patti,” directed by Shashanka Chaturvedi, which also stars Kriti Sanon and will be released on Netflix on October 25.

The Durga Puja celebrations have long been a notable event, drawing Bollywood stars together in a show of cultural unity. The North Bombay Sarbojanin Durga Puja, in particular, is famous for its grandeur, featuring majestic Maa Durga idols that add to the festive atmosphere. Rani Mukerji was also spotted in a stunning red and black saree, respectfully removing her footwear before entering the pandal, a gesture of cultural respect.

Pictures and videos from the celebration have been circulating widely on social media, capturing the essence of joy and devotion. Kajol’s simple yet glamorous appearance in a plain saffron saree, accompanied by Tanishaa dressed in traditional Bengali attire adorned with gold jewelry, has also garnered attention.

The lavish celebrations, coupled with the devotion of the attendees, create a surreal and positive environment that adds to the festival’s charm, highlighting the power and grace embodied by the idols of Maa Durga.
