Durga Pooja 2019: Mouni Roy, Pooja B Sharma, Dalljiet Kaur: Actresses Who Played Goddess Durga In Television Shows
While several actresses have played the role of Goddess Durga in her various forms in mythological serials on small-screen, here are our top 5 picks.
Navratri is the festival that is celebrated in honour of Goddess Durga. The occasion also honours the triumph of good over evil and is celebrated with pomp and style all over the country for nine days to honour the nine avatars of Goddess Durga. However, the festival is best celebrated in Kolkatta. Also, seen as a mark of Naari Shakti, it symbolises how after exploitation even the calm Goddess Parvati shed her composed nature and turned into Mahakaali, to end evil, thus establishing the fact that a woman only keeps quiet until she wants to and once her patience is tested, she does not back down.

Mouni Roy
Mouni Roy had the privilege to play Goddess Durga in not one but two of her shows, first in Devon Ke Dev... Mahadev and then in Naagin 2. And Mouni killed us as well with her expressions.
Pooja Sharmaa
She made her debut with the very challenging role of Draupadi in Mahabharat and her second project was yet another challenging role, that of Goddess Parvati and Mahakaali in Colors' Mahakaali: Anth Hi Aarambh Hai. And the lady did a splendid job of the same.
Dalljiet Kaur
Not many know this but Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon actress Dalljiet Kaur, who is currently locked up in the Bigg Boss 13 house, has also played Maa Durga in a show called Maa Shakti.
Sonarika Bhadoria
As beautiful as Sonarika Bhadoria looked in Devon Ke Dev... Mahadev as Goddess Parvati, she also rocked her terrific avatar of Goddess Durga in the same show.
Puja Banerjee
Pooja Bose replaced Sonarika Bhadoria in the role of Parvati in Devon Ke Dev... Mahadev. And while Sinarika got to portray Goddess Durga, Pooja did the Mahakaali act, which won her immense applause. Well, these ladies have only proven the fact that they sure can play some terrific roles!
