Pankaj Tripathi Celebrates Durgashtami and Dussehra in Kolkata With Family

Pankaj Tripathi celebrated Durgashtami and Dussehra with his family in Kolkata, returning to a city that holds a special place in his personal life. The actor's connection to Kolkata comes through his wife, Mridula Tripathi, whose maternal home is located there. Over the years, frequent visits have strengthened his bond with the city's culture, traditions, and people, earning him the affectionate title of Kolkata's 'son-in-law'.

Reflecting on the festive season and his relationship with the city, Pankaj Tripathi stated, “Kolkata has always held a very special place in my heart. My relationship with this city began through Mridula and her family, but over the years, Kolkata has become so much more than just my in-laws’ city.” He added that being in Kolkata for Durgashtami and Dussehra allowed him to slow down, spend quality time with loved ones amidst busy schedules, and experience the extraordinary energy and devotion of Durga Puja.
