Mumbai residents have long looked forward to the Mukerji family’s Durga Puja celebrations, which combine grandeur, affection, and nostalgia. The family remembered their late uncle, Deb Mukherjee, who had been the focal point of these events for decades, thus this year’s festivities had a deeper meaning. The family’s women, Kajol and Rani Mukerji, gave the pandal a classic elegance and grace while maintaining the devotional and celebratory spirit.
Kajol’s Magnificent Cream and Red Outfit
In a cream silk saree by Gopi Vaid Designs, Kajol attracted attention. The elaborate embroidery along the borders of the Rs 60,000 Farida saree set created the ideal harmony between festive brilliance and subtle grandeur. She accessorized it with a strong red blouse with patterns, which contrasted sharply with the drape’s delicate sheen. Kajol’s style, which was adorned with bold jhumkas and sparse makeup, embodied carefree tradition while radiating her distinctive personality. Her look, which represented strength and elegance, matched the joyous colors of Durga Puja.
A Beautiful White Saree by Rani Mukerji
In contrast, Rani Mukerji chose the Doaba Saree from Nayantara Mumbai, which costs Rs 14,900 at retail. Her preference for simple yet elegant style was mirrored in the white saree, which was embellished with delicate black flower embroidery and delicate red highlights. She wore few accessories and draped it effortlessly, allowing the craftsmanship to do the talking. Rani exuded quiet elegance with her well-groomed hair and sparkling smile, creating a festive yet understated image.
A Family Matter with Touches of Emotion
One of the city’s cultural highlights for a long time has been the Durga Puja of the Mukerji family. This year, actress Tanishaa Mukerji wore a lemon-hued saree, and filmmaker Ayan Mukerji wore a traditional white kurta pajama. The family honored Deb Mukherjee’s legacy and celebrated joyfully together. For Kajol and Rani, their wardrobe selections were symbols of custom, love, and memory in addition to being joyful attire.
