Tellydom stars speak of their Ganesh Chaturthi experiences...
Angad Hasija:
I knew that Ganesh Chaturthi is a big festival in Mumbai even before I had come here but when I saw it for the first time I knew how big a festival it is for the people here. I saw my neighbour bringing the Ganesh murti home and I was so amazed at the sight of the number of people who went to their house. It was such a beautiful sight wherein their house was beautifully decorated, filled with their loved ones. I had vowed that I would do it once I get settled, and after two years I kept my first Ganapati at my home. Though we know about the festival, we do not celebrate this festival with pomp and show in our place.
Something that disturbs me about the festival is that, after the Visarjan the remains of the murthi flows with the water and come under our legs. Hence we do our visarjan in a nearby lake. I am excited about the festival this year.
