Mumbai's Favourite God Arrives

Some more glimpses of Lord Ganesha as The God Of New Beginnings arrives in different localities of Mumbai.

Ganesh Chaturthi, the grandest Hindu festival in Mumbai, begins on Saturday, September 7, 2024.

Devotees from across the city donate generously to Sarvajanik Mandals who use the funds to create stunning pandal decorations and elaborate Ganesha idols.

These idols are usually bought prior to Ganesh Chaturthi for installation in the pandals.
