The auspicious occasion of Maha Navami in 2025 saw a delightful reunion between actress Mouni Roy and director Ayan Mukerji, rekindling memories of their collaboration on the film Brahmastra. The duo, who worked together on the fantasy-adventure film, were spotted together during Durga Puja festivities.
Mouni Roy shared photos on social media from the Maha Navami celebration. The pictures quickly went viral, garnering much attention and love from fans. Mouni, known for her captivating looks, was seen in a traditional avatar, enhancing the festive spirit of the occasion. Ayan, on the other hand, kept it casual.
Mouni Roy and Ayan Mukerji's bond goes back to the making of Brahmastra: Part One – Shiva, where Mouni played a significant role. Mouni has often expressed her admiration and appreciation for Ayan. In the film, which starred Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, and Amitabh Bachchan, Mouni portrayed the character of Junoon, the main antagonist. Her performance was well-received, further solidifying her position in the Bollywood industry.
Despite initial expectations of more mainstream roles after Brahmastra, Mouni admitted that she felt like her name wasn't being considered for many opportunities. However, she maintained a positive outlook, expressing gratitude for her career and the continuous inflow of work, including shows on Hotstar and reality show appearances.
Ayan Mukerji, who usually stays away from the limelight, was happy to share the festive occasion with Mouni. Previously, Mouni had referred to Ayan as her "best boy-friend", highlighting their close bond. She has also praised him as a brilliant and knowledgeable person, emphasizing how much she has learned from him.
The Brahmastra director, though not very active on social media, makes appearances on Mouni's Instagram. Their camaraderie is evident in the pictures they share, reflecting a strong friendship and professional respect.
Brahmastra, the first part of a planned trilogy, saw Ranbir Kapoor's character Shiva as the key to the Brahmastra. Alia Bhatt played Isha, Shiva's love interest, while Amitabh Bachchan and Nagarjuna portrayed protectors of Brahmansh, a secret society safeguarding the Brahmastra. The film also had a guest appearance by Shah Rukh Khan.
The Maha Navami reunion of Mouni Roy and Ayan Mukerji brought a wave of nostalgia for Brahmastra fans. It served as a reminder of the film's success and the strong relationships forged during its making. As they continue on their individual journeys, their fans look forward to seeing them collaborate again in the future.
