The festive spirit of Durga Puja took over Mumbai as B-town celebrities flocked to the North Bombay Sarbojanin Durga Puja pandal to celebrate Mahasaptami. Ranbir Kapoor made a striking appearance at the venue, looking dapper in a maroon embroidered silk kurta paired with cream wide-leg trousers. The actor was seen offering his prayers with deep reverence, bowing before the altar while a priest applied a sacred red tilak to his forehead. In a moment of quiet devotion, Ranbir was captured standing barefoot with his hands folded in a namaste before the grand idol of Goddess Durga, later catching up with his close friend and director Ayan Mukerji.
Kajol, who is a permanent fixture at the Mukherjee family’s annual festivities, turned heads in a vibrant yellow-orange saree. Accompanied by her children, Nysa and Yug Devgn, the actress was seen soaking in the atmosphere, snapping photos of the magnificent idol and sharing laughs with sister Tanishaa Mukerji and Ayan Mukerji. This year’s celebrations hold special significance as the North Bombay Sarbojanin Durga Puja pandal marks a major milestone, completing 80 years of tradition, grandeur, and community devotion.
The star-studded pandal saw a steady stream of industry icons throughout the day. Veteran actor Jaya Bachchan arrived to offer her respects, while filmmaker Anurag Basu, a regular attendee at this annual gathering, was spotted looking festive in a blue kurta. The event served as a beautiful reunion for the film fraternity, highlighting the deep-rooted cultural traditions that bring the Mukherjee family and their friends together every year to seek the blessings of Goddess Durga.
