A night after Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger was spotted at the Eden Gardens watching the ICC World Cup England-Pakistan match, the legendary rockstar took to social media to post his photographs with the caption: ‘Happy Diwali and Kali Pujo शुभ दीपावली और जय काली मा’
mickjagger / InstragramMick was sporting enough to pose with the replicas of mythical ‘bhoots’ (ghosts) probably at Kumartuli. The Diwali post drew a wide range of reactions — shock to awe — from the legend’s fans. From ‘Can't believe you're in my city!!’ to ‘Jagger knows Diwali, my life is complete lol’
mickjagger / InstragramEven as the rockstar poses with Ma Kali or Shyama Ma, a comment on his post read: ‘Rocking vibes as Mick joins the #KaliPujo celebration in Kolkata! Uncanny, considering the Stones tongue symbol was inspired by Goddess Kali — a fusion of pop art & Indian spirituality? Legendary 'moves like Jagger' transcending cultures’
