Sushmita Sen’s recent appearance at a Durga Puja pandal in Mumbai, accompanied by her boyfriend Rohman Shawl and daughter Alisah Sen, caught attention not only for her annual ritual but also for her choice of attire, a non-traditional printed green top. She paid her respects by bowing before the idol, greeted the priest, and warmly interacted with needy women and children outside the pandal, displaying her gracious nature.
The Durga Puja celebration also saw other Bollywood stars attending the pandal, including Kajol and Rani Mukerji. Kajol and Rani, who famously worked together in Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, were spotted enjoying the festivities. Kajol also reunited with veteran actor Jaya Bachchan, who showered her with affection, rekindling memories of their work in Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham. Rani Mukerji caught up with Ranbir Kapoor, her co-star from his debut film Saawariya.
The spontaneous display of affection caught fans’ attention, with many commenting on the bond the two share. One fan noted, “So nice bond they share,” while another remarked on Jaya Bachchan’s unusually jovial mood, saying, “First time seeing Jayaji happy and in a good mood.”
This interaction took place at the North Bombay Sarbojanin Durga Puja Pandal, which is managed by Kajol, Rani Mukerji, and their family. Earlier, another video captured the actresses reuniting at the pandal, offering prayers to Durga Maa and catching up amidst the festivities. Kajol also had a playful moment of her own when the sound of whistles in the room caught her off guard, prompting her to ask who was whistling. She was later seen directing the crowd to make way for others who wanted to offer prayers, showing her involvement in organizing the event.
Sushmita, meanwhile, continues to receive praise for her performance in Aarya, where she portrays a mother turned gangster after her husband’s murder, a role that showcases her versatility and strong screen presence.
