India is in the midst of vibrant celebrations for both Ashtami and Navami, and Bollywood celebrities in Mumbai are joining in the festivities. Notably, actors Kajol, Tanishaa Mukerji, and Alia Bhatt have been seen participating in the Durga Puja celebrations, with numerous photos and videos circulating online.
In one video that garnered significant attention, Kajol expressed her frustration at attendees wearing shoes near the idol of Goddess Durga during the puja. She was heard admonishing them, stating, “Have some respect, this is puja.” Alia, who looked stunning in a red saree, was present alongside her sister Shaheen Bhatt, who opted for a bright yellow ethnic outfit.
Another delightful moment from the celebrations featured Kajol and her husband Ajay Devgn, who were seen with their son, Yug. The family looked adorable, especially as Ajay and Yug twinned in matching navy blue kurta sets. A humorous moment went viral as Kajol playfully pinched Ajay, prompting him to place his arm around her shoulders while posing for photos. This lighthearted interaction led fans to comment on the couple’s playful dynamic, with one remarking, “Typical biwi things,” and another quipping, “Kahani ghar ghar ki lekin Ajay Devgn ik tarfa.”
For the occasion, Ajay wore a dark blue kurta, while Kajol looked elegant in a blue saree. The couple was seen greeting family members and participating in the prayers, which were likely a good omen for Ajay as he prayed for the success of his upcoming film, Singham Again.
On Saptami, actor Ranbir Kapoor was also spotted at the pandal, which is organized by the families of Rani Mukerji, Kajol, and Ayan Mukerji, who are all cousins. Ayan and Ranbir share a close bond and frequently attend events together.
Other celebrities, including Rani Mukerji, Vatsal Sheth, and Ishita Dutta, were also seen at the pandal, contributing to the festive atmosphere. The celebrations will conclude with the traditional Sindoor Khela on October 12, marking a joyful end to the Durga Puja festivities.
