The Durga Puja 2025 celebrations concluded on October 2 with Durga Visarjan (immersion of idols) and Sindoor Khela, marking the festival’s end and commemorating the triumph of good over evil. Upholding an annual tradition, Kajol and her extended family organise the North Bombay Sarbojanin Durga Puja in Mumbai, an event that also draws several prominent Bollywood and TV celebrities.
Among the attendees was TV actress Nyrraa Banerji, known for her roles in shows such as Divya Drishti, Pishachini, and others.

At the popular Durga Puja pandal in Mumbai, TV actress Nyrraa Banerji had the opportunity to meet Kajol. In a post shared later, she expressed her admiration for the Dilwale Dulhaniyaa Le Jayenge star, writing, “I’ve always liked Kajol ma’am, not only for her classic roles, but also for her strong cultural roots. Meeting her at the pandal today seemed like a blessing in itself. Seeking Maa Durga’s blessings together was a magnificent and humbling experience, with the energy, devotion, and people,” quoted ETimesTV.
Nyrraa Banerji Faces Criticism Over Her Outfit
Nyrraa Banerji also came under online scrutiny for her attire during the dhunuchi dance at the Durga Puja pandal.
In the clip, the dhunuchi, an earthen incense burner used in the ritual, became entangled in Nyrraa’s saree. Photographers nearby quickly intervened to prevent any mishap. While the situation was handled safely, netizens focused heavily on her choice of outfit for the event, sparking discussions across social media.
The actress was dressed elegantly in a traditional red saree and a sleeveless top with tiny straps and a plunging neckline. While some followers admired her festive outfit, others thought it was ‘inappropriate’ for a holy occasion like Durga Puja.
