Tanishaa Mukerji Requests People to Maintain Decorum
Ahead of the celebrations, Tanishaa Mukerji had appealed to members of the media and the public to behave responsibly at the pandal. Speaking at a press conference in Mumbai, she pointed out that the number of visitors was expected to increase and urged everyone to look out for one another.
“There’s going to be a lot more footfall, so I definitely request everybody in the media and the public to please take care of each other. Don’t forget that there is humanity,” she said, highlighting concerns about people pushing and crowding while trying to enter the pandal.
Tanishaa also made a light-hearted but pointed request to the paparazzi regarding Jaya Bachchan, who has often been seen expressing frustration with photographers.
“Don’t trouble our Jaya aunty this time. Y’all are troubling her a lot; please don’t trouble her,” she said. She also remarked that some photographers deliberately provoked Jaya and asked them not to repeat such behaviour during the celebrations.
A Festive Gathering Filled With Celebrity Moments
From Jaya Bachchan and Kajol’s warm greeting to Kajol’s family photographs with Nysa and Yug, the North Bombay Sarbojanin Durga Puja pandal witnessed several memorable moments on Shashti.
As devotees continue to visit the pandal to seek blessings from Maa Durga, the celebrity appearances have added to the buzz surrounding the celebrations. Tanishaa’s appeal also served as a reminder that festivals are best enjoyed when visitors, photographers and organisers treat one another with care and respect.
