'And .... My GANNU RAJA is back Our 10th year ! The remover of obstacles and Lord of success.

Ganpati Bappa Morya. PS: Love and celebration is all of us #TRIPLING. Thankyou'

Sonali Bendre writes, 'Ganesh Chaturthi is one of my favourite festivals and I really missed celebrating it at home last year... Was part of the Aarti via FaceTime! I'm so glad to be back this year, healthier and stronger, celebrating with my family. I truly believe if there’s faith, it reflects more on the inside...in the dialogue between you and your God... so don't lose that essence. Once again, we’ve taken the route of bringing an eco-friendly Ganesha & we’ll also immerse the Lord in our home. May this Ganesh Chaturthi bring health, happiness and new beginnings to everyone, and may we all have the strength to overcome the obstacles that come our way.'
