Mumbai On Ganesh Chaturthi
Ganesh Chaturthi in Mumbai is not just a festival, it is a celebration and the biggest festival Mumbaikars celebrate. The grand pandals to the iconic Lalbaugcha Raja is the most famous idol worshiped during this time. The roads of Mumbai look like a colourful art gallery. The festival brings together people from different communities. This also creates chaos on roads, and office-goers hustle. So, mostly, the whole Mumbai remains closed on this day.
