Prices for idols start at Rs 10,000 and go up to Rs 80,000.

At the Nare Park Ganeshotsava Mandal, Parel, one can see a 23 foot idol under construction. Contractor Sunil Dhumal says the Mandal is erecting a scene based on the Shiv Sena's Mee Mumbaikar theme.

The idol will have a painted background of the Mumbai skyline. Crowded local trains, the Ghatkopar blast, hutments in the city will be depicted in the form of models made out of wood, Plaster of Paris and thermocol.

Dhumal's 20-man team has been working on the theme for the last 15 days with an approximate budget of Rs 1 million.
