Mohishashur Mordini — Mahalaya wouldn’t be complete
without the worship of Devi Durga. Each year, several popular celebrities
portray Maa Durga in Mohishashur Mordini, and this year it’s Rajnandini
Paul. The trained dancer, as Maa Durga in the teaser released by Hoichoi, has
been receiving rave reviews. With Aigiri Nandini playing in the
background, Rajnandini embodies Durga, establishing the triumph of good over
evil and setting the mood for Mahalaya and Pujo.
Rajnandini has portrayed powerful, women-centric roles
throughout her career. She played a domestic-violence survivor, who fought for
her rights in Sampurna on Hoichoi. Her performances as Jhelum in Mr.
Kolkata, Chandrabati Devi in Ek Je Chhilo Raja, and Durga in Asur
further showcase her strength. Rajnandini is also the daughter of veteran
actress and danseuse Indrani Dutta.
Mohishashur Mordini will air on October 2 on Hoichoi.
Don’t miss it!
