Television actors love the Ganpati festival, and bring home beautiful Ganeshas.

They talk about their special celebrations.

 

Arjun Bijlani



We have been bringing Ganeshji home for 25 years now.

My father started the tradition. He passed away 10 years ago, so I took it up after him.

I love having motichoor ladoos during Ganpati.

Romit Raj



I have been bringing Ganpati home for the last two years.

My wife had been planning this for the last four years. We decided to finally start last year.

Our daughter actively takes part in the Ganpati pooja.

I love eating elaichi pedas and Maharaja ladoos during Ganpati.

Gaurav Sharma


I have been bringing Ganpati home for the last three years.

I saw a pooja at a friend's house, and I loved it as his family was celebrating together.

I love the modaks made by my mother.

 

Himmanshoo Malhotra


I have been bringing Ganpati home for the last four years.

I wanted to keep a Ganpati in my house ever since I came to Mumbai 10 years ago. But at that point, I was busy with my career and there was no one to take care of Ganpati. Even Amruta was busy with her career then.

Then, I decided we have to keep a Ganpati, and my mother and Amruta took care of it.

I love boondi ladoos, Kaju katli and barfi.


Ankit Gera


I have been bringing Ganpati home for the last five years.

When I came to Mumbai, I saw people following the Ganpati festival and really liked that.

I love kala kanth, Kaju katli and modak.
