Celebrating Durga Puja with Rani Mukerji!
Rani Mukerji celebrated Vijayadashami, or Dussehra, with sindoor khela when she joined her family at the Durga Puja pandal at the North Bombay Sarbojanin Durga Puja Samiti in Juhu, a western Mumbai surburb.
Sindoor khela is a ritual where married women apply sindoor or vermilion on other married women.
Here are some colourful pictures from the festivities:
