Mumbai, 26 Aug, 2014 : Organised by Lalbaug Sarvajanik Ganeshostav mandal in Mumbai, prepartions are in full swing for the 11-day Ganeshotsav. The Ganeshotsav, which will start from Auust 29, will see lakhs of devotees come only for mukhdarshan of their ’bappa’ to fulfill their navas or mannats.

 

While every corner of Mumbai will see Ganpati Mandals with big and small creatively carved out idols, Lalbaugcha Raja is one of the oldest. It was founded in 1934 and sees a large turnout since this idol of Lord Ganesha is considered ’Navsacha Ganpati’, which means the fulfiller of all wishes.

The idol is sculpted by Santosh Kambli, the third generation of a family that has been making the Lalbaugcha Raja idol since 1935.

This reminds my during my young days when I was a Mumbaikar. During the 11 days Ganeshotsav, the city of Mumbai is busy with pujas, cultural programs and other activities. I wish you all a Happy Ganeshotsav and make it a safe one.
