Dhallywood actress Pori Moni joined this year’s Durga Puja celebrations with a special look inspired by the goddess. On Sunday afternoon, she shared a video on her Facebook page. She wore a traditional white sari with a red border, an ornate crown and a floral garland, and held a lotus flower in her hand.
The Message Behind the Video
Pori Moni captioned the video with a simple wish that good will triumph over evil. The line echoes the central theme of the festival, which marks the victory of Goddess Durga over the buffalo demon Mahishasur.
Earlier Photoshoot in Red
A few days earlier, she shared photographs in a different Durga-inspired style. In those images, she wore a red sari, alta on her feet, vermilion and a traditional crown. She captioned those pictures with just her own name.
Fans and Filmmakers React
Social media users showered the video with praise. Some called her “a complete Durga,” and others said she would be hard to tell apart from the idol if she stood beside it in a pandal. One follower said seeing her in this form fulfilled a wish they had been thinking about for days.
Director Chayanika Chowdhury shared the look on Facebook and praised it. She also sent festive wishes, writing “Shubho Maha Saptami” and hoping everyone’s life would be easy and beautiful.
Celebrities Join the Festive Mood
Pori Moni is not the only star marking the festival. Other Bangladeshi entertainers have also shared family moments, memories and festive looks. Reports note that Pori Moni, who is Muslim, drew attention for her goddess-inspired styling.
