Transferred a dwarf banana to a pot and the leaves drooped?

Hello, I planted a dwarf orinoco banana tree this summer. It is still very small and only has 7 leaves. It is far from producing fruit. Anyway, i dug it up and put it in a pot and later on the leaves started to droop a little. When i left for work this morning i checked on it and the drooping stopped.
I plant to keep it inside during the winter and put it back outside next spring.

Do you think it will be ok or are the drooping leave a sign that it will die?

Drooping and wilting leaves is usual sighs when transplanting almost any plant. They spring back. Without your zone or location, you won't get much good advise for overwintering. Please put that in your profile.
